NS quiz! Test your skill!

thats like in the xgames halfpipe persay, snowboarders will throw some grabs in and spin 540s a couple 9s, but skiers are going alllll out hucking as big as they can go. i think skiers are more progressive than snowboarders, but thats just my opinion. also, have you ever noticed we snowboarders spin w/ out grabs it looks awful, they twist and whip there bodys around. we definatly have more style than them when spinnign bugger things
 
I have never been a big fan of snowboarding style...Espceially when they let go of the grab and unwind to finish the rotation.. that being said they some amazing shit and i have mad props for them..

But I dont think the answer is following in there footsteps like ppl say. They would over shadow us and our progression...Kinda like some one who is 6 2 standing next to someone who is 7 10...They are tall in their own right but not comparatively

We need to have our own sport with our own progression and style so we can break out of the shadows of snowboarding not linger in it by doing the same tricks a year later!!
 
Have you even seen a snowboard halfpipe comp in the last 2 years? Most big winning runs have at least 2 1080s, a few of 900s and they're going as high as skiers do doing those tricks, probably higher.

Of course its going to look bad when they don't grab, its no different than skiing.

But the biggest thing that they have over us is they spin all 4 ways in their runs, not 1 or 2 like 98% of ski pipe runs.
 
i've seen snowboarders do 450's and 630's. and the wider stance makes it harder to do spins on rails. but i do agree that on a snowboard you can land anyway you want due to the width of the board.
