Oakley copying Ankilla

By Sammy deleting comments, it shows a consciousness of guilt. Inspiration was indeed drawn from Xankilla.

If Sammy did not copy, the response would be, "Hey, these totally look similar, but here’s where we got the inspiration and how we came up with this." Him deleting comments and having a meltdown over this shows there was inspiration from Xankilla.

Sammy is freaking out - even said that these comments and xankilla were "an insult to his way of life"
 
Can’t believe I’m saying this but from now on, every time I watch Sammy Carlson skiing an absolutely brain melting Alaskan spine; I will be thinking about him having a temper tantrum over ankilla

they look similar to the oakley medusa
 
I think the funniest part of this is that Oakley is talking up how they used holograms and shit to design this “new genre of headwear” only for people to just say “looks like ankilla” lmao. They probably used some dumbass AI program and it just copied whatever garbage it found for free on social media
 
Sammy Carlson seems like the biggest tool ever. "Live by the sword, die by the sword"?? Brother what the fuck does that even mean? You model outerwear and ski equipment for a living, get over yourself.

Went to find the insta post and realized I was already blocked by him. I think it was from messaging him about never doing his "5 Questions with Sammy C" a few years ago.

Honestly, fuck this dude.

Honestly, fuck this dude.

heres 5 new questions for him

Q1: who wore it better: you or xankilla?

Q2: how long has xankilla been an inspiration for you?

Q3: do you find inspiration from other things xankilla does like deny the holocaust, call people n****, drink your own piss, etc. or is it just his sense of fashion?

Q4: when will we see you on kitchat bars?

Q5: how are we going to be able to tell which one is you and which one is xankilla??

I forgot oakley has a history of doing dumb shit like this, I doubt they got inspiration from ankilla, it really looks what anyone would come up with if they thought of futuristc/dystopian/samurai with 2 pairs of glasses.

What if i told you oakley been on that shit sice 2008 and this Xankilla is running with what influenced him at a younger age like the rest of us. i know its hard to grasp i know hes this faggot-website's punching bag but just check out that perspective.

What up ankilla.

says the guy who using homophobic slurs on an alt account. Ill keep your main on the DL since youve never done anything like this before.
 
also, anyone who thinks Oakley copied some fucking nobody, bum ass, anti-semitic, hateful person is just bored and needs to go skiing.

I don't think anybody thinks they actually copied ankilla, but the way Sammy responded makes running with the joke funny
 
Posting some of oakleys past ads here to show they've already been on some mysterious hidden marketing vibes for a while. Also, sammy is right in that Xankilla has never been and will never be a good representation of the skiing community.

Wait: was the DM to a random kid or Ankilla??

I grew up watching Sammy and have been a fan for a long time.

That being said, he seems to take himself very seriously as he has aged. If he would have ignored this, it literally would have gone away. Now it’s left us with a bad impression. I can’t believe he DMed someone “snow samurai” and “fuck you”. Sorry Sammy, but you’re the kook in that situation. Just ignore it.

generally I would feel the same. but for whatever reason it doesn't even bother me because of how much of a clown xankilla is, and generally how removed from social media sammy is. he's prob not used to getting called out and hated on to the point where he's had to learn to ignore it. the lesson for the snow samurai is happening right now.

If i was sammy, or any other pro skier for that matter, I would 100% tell someone like chris to fuck off in a DM. He's not some kid looking up to sammy, he's not some role model, chris is a huge piece of shit that doesn't deserve any of the attention this whole situation is giving him. Who cares about their DMs? seriously.

Leftist take I love watching conflict unfold and giving funny people platforms
 
I thought it was a random kid he was sending a dm too. If it’s Ankilla, it makes a little more sense. I thought Sammy was just going off on some random kid

Who also would never lose his shit over a lolcow like ankilla

Bdog is also such an innovator and creator of timeless looks and ski styles. Sammy c is a crazy good skier but really hasn’t ever wowed me with his ski style or outerwear choices, which adds to the hilarity of this beef. Like what legacy or “way of life” is he trying to protect?? Dude is famous because he fucking rips not because of style
 
14628592:GrandThings said:
Can we talk about the fact that BDog is the real Snow Samurai?

can we talk about the fact that any grown adult playing dressing up as snow samurai or anything of the likes and being absolutely serious about it is one of the stupidest things i’ve ever seen. this type of childish shit makes me loose respect for ski culture, honestly even the Bdog persona and shit like it makes me cringe.

yeah I agree bro we should all be boring, no fun, insecure brick walls with no persona/brand in a literal creative sport.

yeah but he specifically said "and being serious about it." That's the problem lol

not at all what i said, i love having fun, playing make believe is genuinely fun, but being dead ass about it is weird. Sammy carlson is white american dude who grew up in the suburbs shipping up to mountains every weekend to go skiing. why the fuck is he genuinely pressed about somone insinuating that he isn’t a real snow samurai???? it’s sped

You know people like him get off on that, bad idea. A normal person would start reconsidering, a raging narcissist would just double down

Ok my apologies for misinterpreting what you said. Yeah LARPing 24/7 as some kind of warrior/thug when you grew up privileged is wack. And snow is white. More news at 11
 
Kind sir, would you be able to explain what Larping is? From context would assume cos/roleplaying.

yeah pretty much. Live Action Role Playing. like dudes pretending theyre knights and sword fighting at the park, that kind of stuff

Live Action Role Playing

Basically going out into the woods with people and running around in costumes unironically pretending you're like a wizard or a knight (or in this case a samurai)

I remember it being a meme in like 2012 idk if people still do it lol

it's also become slang for fronting a certain lifestyle or upbringing or whatever

i am out of the loop here. Who is ankilla?

good skier but he's one of those internet crazy people. drinks his own piss, posts about how the democrats are eating babies in secret tunnels underground, questions whether the holocaust actually happened as it's been reported etc etc ya know, impressionable internet guy stuff
 
So then why are people in this thread seemingly defending this asshole?

great question. most of the "defenders" are more so using the opportunity to shit on oakley and sammy. but why there is even a thread is beyond me. we give that fucking idiot way too much attention.
 
Don't get me wrong, I'm no fan of ankilla, but why are all the threads abt him funny asf. like sometimes I almost hope for him to get unbanned just to see him get pressed by everybody on the website/app. he is a piece of shit but all the drama around him is always gold.
