Quit hating on goepper

Wait till he gets hurt and it's a big deal shit twall skied without an acl and still looked good and I don't know till his vid
 
He does have his own style. someone without style is someone like Tribondeau, it looks like he throws himself in the air hoping to land on his skis, plus he dresses like my 60 years old uncle.
 
One of the nicest guys I know. Always encouraging kids. Nick took time off training in New Zealand to drive 5 hours to visit my son in the hospital when he ruptured his spleen (and also in Ogden hospital when my kid broke his collarbone). Stays at our home when he comes through town. Always gracious & humble. Plays ping pong like a bawwwsss. Just a great kid.
 
I think Mahler did the switch dub 9 screamin japan (or genie grab or whatever you want to call it) last year during Big air. As to the other guy's comment on Vinnie being the innovator: didn't Mike D give a shout out to the dude who invented that grab whilst commentating on Nick's slope run? It definitely wasn't Vinnie Cash
 
lol no Tell me a sw dub 14 about 2 years ago was unoriginal, cos it wasn't, it was the first one. Also he brought the first triple to the X games Slope (admittedly in Practice) which was so stomped it was crazy.
 
Thats nothing new and different, he brings nothing interesting to the table. He is the definition of a generic comp skier.
 
If he wore baggy clothes for an edit and didn't reveal his identity all of NS would be drooling all over themselves.
 
can we stop using the baggy clothes point for style? there are plenty of skiers who people on NS love their style that don't wear really baggy clothes.

jossi, delorme, wallisch, lolo favre, talkington, etc.

it's not a clothes thing. if anything, i'd say it's more of a super clean vs. a slightly more unrefined style i.e. old wallisch vs new wallisch and especially talkington's skiing.
 
wesson, candide, sam hurst, nicky keefer, hatveit, (recently) sig tveit, the list goes on and on.

i think it's worth mentioning the the HIGHEST RATED video on NS of ALL TIME is of candide. in POV. a skier who has never worn baggy clothes, in an edit where you can't see clothes anyways.
 
It's funny because Sammy Carlson stomped the shit out of the same trick in dew tour big air the night before. He also held the grab for more than .2 seconds.
 
It's also funny because Ambuehl, Jossi and Jon Olsson stomped sw dub 14s before any of them. I also think LJ might have done one before Nick and Sammy...
