Overdoing steeze

every trick Hornbeck does in Realtime.

can't stand when he lands.

over does it by so much.

don't get me wrong, hes amazing and has good style.

but when it comes to landing and riding away he just seems like a fucker.
 
We all know that Tom Wallisch bit that style from Vanular from LSS (But you guys' mouths are so far down his dick that you can't see it). Then people had to take it even further and make it look it even stupider.
 
forced or no, look at it like this... i think its sick that kids are trying to make actual SKIING look good as well as tricks.

think about how many park riders have been criticized for being park rats who can't ski. well, i bet it's pretty difficult to stomp hard and ride away if yer a sketchy backseat mutha...
 
yea I came to that conclusion after seing the response from that thread.

once again I think brogan is dope I just thing the way he lands his trick look better then teh way he ride away afterward when he land switch.

I,ll have to try landing foward like he does a couple time too, that's pretty fucked up
 
think about it... all these fools try to land and stand straight up with hands to the side but lets see these kids jump off something into powder and land like that. Once these lil kids that think they be dunny from the block realize they are skiers and even more so that there is so much more to skiing than just lapping the park and sliding urban rails then they will realize how unpractical their over steeze is,

go to park city and see the 100 kids that throw ugly ass tricks but can land like the best of em, shits a joke... its fucking skiing and the mtns and snow, come on now lil herbs
 
oh yea, and the homie saying tom copied his style from vanular and what not... NO SHIT, but i think hands down the most copied skier out there is liam... watch his segments from earliest level 1 flicks to last years and take a look.... he was so ahead of his time with landing all ill, enough said
 
people actually encourage fake style in skiing, fakesteeze is beyond an epidemic its on everyone.

i think its funny how backward we are
 
O for sure i remember seeing some kid traversing across a run in full gorilla steeze, down low with bend arms.

 
so its cool to have your arms up in the air and all over the place on the ride away? i perfer the controlled ride away and thats all it is
 
Its been said before and I'll say it again.....

retarded.jpg
 
it might just be that brogan has so much steeze that people think it's fake. the kid oozes steeze whenever he rides and he's been that way for a long time. what's wrong with looking good while you ride???
 
bahahaha, cedric i swear to god isomeone made this exact same thread a while ago but it got deleted!! Somebody called it "afterbang" I totally agree, forced steeze is so gay.
 
Be Yourself...It's not about what tricks you can throw, or what you look like, It's about having fun, don't try to be something or someone you're not.

I wear baggy clothes when I ski, but that doesn't make me the stereotypical wanna-be thug, it's simply cuz I find it comfortable, if tight pants were comfy for me, I'd wear tight pants. I wear a bandana because it's an effective way to keep the wind out of my face, not because I wanna look gangsta. (i mean I won't wear any gaper stuff though)

The stance I ski in is the stance most comfortable and fun to ski in for ME, not for anyone else, you shouldn't ski for others, you should ski for yourself, and no one else. It's all about going to have fun on the mtn with your friends, and chilling with a beer afterwards and laughing together about stuff that happened on the mtn that day.
 
Vanular can do whatever the fuck he wants, he gets so little props from the world spotlight for how insanely good he is
 
although brogan's ride aways may look unnatural, im going to guess that 95% of you have never ridden with him. Well the kid is insane, everything is so natural, its not like he is having a sketchy landing then popping up and trying to look steezy, the kid stomps everything and thats just what he looks like while stomping.
 
actually brogan just skis like that, he doesnt force it, our coach always used to yell at him for riding like that but apparently he knew nothin about steeze
 
Apart from the point, I think everyone should have their own style and not try so hard to imitate tanners style or tom wallischs style. Its unique style that ppl like stefan thomas and mik D are doing so well with sponsorships and movies and stuff
 
You, friend, are what sucks with the world lately. Why on earth would you flame someone for saying Hi, and asking if they wanted to do a run with them. WE are skiers, we all share a love for this sport. That right there is a hell of a lot more to have in common with someone saying hello while passing in the street. When someone says hey in the streets, you dont go " who the fuck are you and why are you talking to me...look at your gear, that shits haggard. get some style then see about talking to me, ass" so why would you do it to a fellow skier. Grow up, get some social skills, get over yourself, eat a balanced breakfast, then come back on NS and make a constructive post.
 
honestly, i think the whole "drop the shoulder as you ride away switch" thing really doesnt look that good.
 
wow i cant believe were all aguing about steeze.

yes kids are trying to look when they ski, is that a problem, there not changing there tricks in the air or anything there just tryin to land it without effort to make it look as clean as possible

no one wants to see someone come soaring down with there arms in the air then land and sketch out.

and ALLDAY EVERYDAY brogan rides like that no matter what it is so dont call his steeze fake.

thank you.
 
kday tells it how it is...

Funny too that everyone getting criticized are the same people who are getting play in the industry and nearly all who are criticizing aren't getting shit, or going anywhere...

At the end of the day those getting hated on are doing something fresh...ns is scared of change...
 
Jon Brogan does not fake an ounce of his steeze. Most skiers turn on their steeze when they get to the mountain, get on there skis, and, well, go skiing. Jon Brogan is steezin 100% of the time, all the time. I mean, he is steezin when he eats cereal in the morning, when he gets on the bus for school, when he is having sex, or reading a book. During all parts of his day he has his tall t on, hands curled,knees bent at a perfect 120 degree angle.

Jon Brogan does not move, he does not even hover (as some believe). He stands still in a perfect position, as the entire rest of the world moves around him.
 
i am going to assume that your sean jordan, the same sean jordan who also has edit posted by the same kid as the one who posted brogans edit on that site. You and brogan both kill it without a doubt but you both on some of your switch landings readjust yourself quickly. by readjust i mean drop one shoulder and put your hands low and poles in the air. it looks steezy its just not how you landed. I think thats all ced is trying to get across here. you can hate me and call me out all you want but thats how it is
 
What is so wrong with having some style? Honestly, I think Brogan ride away's are sick. I don't ride with the kid, but I think its sick how he rides it out after stomping something. I would have to assume he doesn't do this after some sketch landing or something.

Also as far as people "biting" styles. Everyone bites styles from others. Every kid in the park wants to look smooth, stylie, and generally "gangster." There is nothing wrong with this, its jsut kids feeding off of other kids.
 
exactly. steeze = style + ease which means it has to look really natural and stylish and easy (no shit?). steeze isn't any exact technique, it's just looking really good doing whatever your doing.
 
This is exactly the case! I've been riding/filming with him the last couple weekends and it's just natural. He's pretty much one of the nicest kids i've met on the hill and he's just out there having fun. He's not trying to emulate anyone, he's just being himself.

Kid slays soooo hard!
 
Everyone needs to give Ced a break, Jesus. Hes a damn good skier, and its incredibly rude to state that hes going "down his hill"

This threads retarted to, stop worrying about what other people are doing unless it effects you.

giveee it upp
 
At least you gave one of the founders of "ride away" props... personally, i just listen to enya and pass out each time im hitting a feature. Thats my style.
 
jon brogan is very sick tho, i rambled around with him and bishop at us open and i swear to god jons feet are touching each other at all times, one of the coolest things ever i might say. so yeah hes sick, i enjoi his style
