NBC's take on halfpipe skiing

[Brule.]

Betty loved this trail, until one day she went down it doing the switch.

 

[*JDBP*]

Only jackasses do the switch.

 

[Lemuel]

The switch in the ice tube? That's a tough.

 

[FUUUCK]

Skiing is now a series of icy tubes.

 

[Byron_tha_gr8]

FUCK ALL OF YOU. THINK YOUR ALL SO COOL FOR HOPPING ON FUTURE SWITCHING. IM CORE, I DO THE SWITCH WHEN THE CAMERAS ARE OFF TOO.

 

[lurking]

what do they call going normal? The forward?

 

[hkn]

And finally the day comes when a father need to have a little talk with his son…

 

[BMB]

"He hit the switch and it went off like a lightbulb"

 

[hkn]

Watch out for the sequence of choreographed spins at 1:23…

Uh-oh… I now realize that they are just switching it. They are not doing the switch. My mistake.

 

[Holte]

Sooooo.... I googled a few different sources to see if this was an actual article. Looks like it is.

So now, let me tell you guys, I did The Switch no less than 30 times today. Please hand me my invite to the 2018 Olympics immediately.

 

[broto]

but were you in the stunt ditch

 

[j.saaaarela]

I prefer the term trick taco

 

[thedanimal]

Man I'm going to go learn the switch !

 

[J-T]

Remember kids, safety first.

 

[Deforestation]

Lol

*ice tube

 

[BBurt]

hahaha this thread is pure fucking gold. My dad thinks that there should be a law restricting people from doing the switch until they're 21

 

[ohboy]

No mention of double flips 40 feet above flat ground, but the switch...that is a true death-defying feat.

 

[JAHBRADOR]

"the switch" turns straight people gay and gay people into mexicans, everyone goes down a notch.

 

[hkn]

There's always a limit to what even a tolerant parent can take…

 

[AT-AT]

 

[Troy.]

The switch got me kicked out of college, arrested, then molested.

 

[-emile-]

the switch is definitely not for begginers I just tore my acl

 

[AntEater]

I did the switch once... Now I pay child support.

 

[Ironwaffle]

I don't always do the switch. But when I do, I do it in the icy tube.

 

[Meekforce]

Saw Jason Bateman do the switch...worked out pretty well for him...
