FUCK. There go my G.N.A.R. points. Or maybe there are bonus points if you start an avy while pole whacking?! Someone needs to consult the rulebook ASAP.
Well the reporter needs to educate himself on GNAR. Damn what an idiot, "He purpusefully wacks the snow with his pole to try n send an avalanche and then carves it up with his skis" Omfg.
it made the news here in australia here too.. i laughed.. they only really showed the avalanche and then the riders reactions at the end though, no GNAR style pole whacking
