In terms of skiers in major movies... who do you think doesn't deserve the shit they're getting??

My vote is Aaron Mcgovern... that guy gets big segments, but they're pretty weak.. i swear half his shit is him bailing. who's dick does he suck to get all of his publicity?? whatever though.. at least nesbitt didn't get a big segment in SM-3, that's all i'm sayin.

and I KNOW there's better big mountain skiers out there.

 
theres a dude called brad holmes who'd be better dead, i dont get why the hell he has segments in sm2 and sm3 and own 'column' in freeze. he is nothing.

I think Holmes is funny as hell, but thats just me...

Seth:'That's a weird looking rail, I'll give you a buck if you can slide it!'

Me:'Thats not a rail, thats a guys leg!'

Seth:'*pause*Okay, two dollars!'

 
You kids still don't realize that skiing is a business and athletes are marketed. Sponsors throw down huge so their athletes get the shots. We all know there are amazing skiers across the globe, most of whom will never recieve the recognition that others do. Not all companies operate on such a system, but some do. Granted, they aren't exclusive to the sponsor's skiers, but they tend to help them out for sure. Companies hope to resume or improve general consumer awareness of specific athletes year to year. They can't just dump guys off to the side left and right because Johnny McSicko from Wisco can toss a switch rodeo 9 reverse japan. Again, it isn't cut and dry, but on the same hand, hard decisions are made on the fine line of buisiness and friendship.
