wtf? How can that be progression? wow, he went .02 seconds faster than some austrian guy. racing is alright, and I have respect for racers and what they do, but it is certainly not progression if you are doing the smae exact thing for 100 years.

i cant take him[liam downey] seriously cuz his name reminds me of that downy bear from back when i was a kid -d loc

I don't deny there are bad things in the US right now, hell, 51% of the country to be exact. But god damnit, our country being fat is NOT a problem. I do't give a shit how fat people are. hell, fat kids are harder to kidnap, that means our country is safer.

dude they dont do the same exact thing for 100 years the technique changes bode's techniques is differnt from everyones and no one in the world can beat bode's best. They put in so much work and dedication to what they do its crazy. Maybe you need to just find your roots a little. At least bode can make a turn unlike the majority of freeskiers today.

Ski racers are some of the best athletes in the world. Dont get me wrong the progrssion in freeskiing is bigger than in racing but only because its a new sport. I just think that racers deserve more credit for what they have done, do and what they did for your sport as well.

Also dont forget about the fact that a large part of the leading freeskiers today used to be racers. Jon, Pollard and so many more.

look at it this way its good thing rooling stone even listed skiing do you know how many more people know that skiing exists now just from picking up the magazine and most of these people if they ever do start skiing are going to buy skis eventually and probly lean towards twins beacuse there cheap and easy to ski on and they do most every thing.

How is he progressing the sport??

easy, because he's an icon, and he skis his own way, not the same way every other racer does. Whether you like it or not, Bode is doing things for the sport, by bringing it to tons of people who never would've cared. Like lance armstrong, he's giving the american people a reason to watch ski racing.

^ that's true and everything, but that isn't progression of the sport. it isn't taking the sport to new heights. it's getting an audience.

 
ski racing is the basis to progerssion. It teaches people how to ski the absolute best they can. You can then take what you have learned and aply it to every other aspect of skiing. ski racing makes good solid skiers that become confident in there abilities. The most confident skier in the world is the best skier in the world. ski racers have the best fundimentals of any skier than can get into any situation and recover from it or just plain fuckin slay it. Ski racing isnt just about being the fastest its about being the best all round skier you can be. Ski racing is the purest form of skiing there is theres no one else but your self to blame you do shitty its about you and thats it.

not to be an asshole and argue, cause I don't want to, but progression is defined as the 'gradual betterment of something'.

IE taking it to new heights.

to me, racing is just dedicating yourself to one thing. the perfect turn. where as the skiing i do now as an ex-racer is a lot harder. i am trying to get good on jumps, in the pipe, on small drops, on rails, on urban, and still taking time to ski the whole mountain not just the park. when i was a racer my days were spent on the course that's it.

-Lauren
 
haha, Im not a memeber of the KKK, actaully, far from it. Black people are cool, especially the ones in my neighborhood that paid me $15 top edge their yard for 30 minutes yesterday.

Melvs, your right, but I don't think his progression is as great as someone's like candide's. freeskiing is also giving people excuses to watch skiing on tv, like the x games live on primetime. They should just start recognizing freeskiing, instead of Just racing.

Any good coach will tell thier racers that freeskiing is one of the most important aspects to becoming a good ski racer all in all it boiols down to just skiing.

I think that the biggest problem with racing, or any sport (including freesking) for that matter, is CONFORMITY. Conformity is the biggest problem in the progression of ski racing. Everybody wants to do it like somebody else.

Progression is freesking is far greater than progression in racing. We have the kids that are trying to be Tanner Hall or Pep Fujas but those aren't the kids that get noticed. It's the skiers with their own PERSONAL STYLE that break the mold and continue to progress the sport.

I agree, Bode is making progression as far as racing goes. But it seems that progression in ski racing is FAR SLOWER than the progression in freesking for sure.

^before i could ski deep powder, before i ever skied internationally or any back bowls off the beaten trail out west

my point was that you can throw any kid, ie me, in the j racing program and get them trained to be a good racer, but with freestyle skiing it's not so established and easy to just send a skier down the assembly line and have them come out a good skier. it takes a lot more personal energy.

-Lauren
 
You nailed it.I think a lot of race programs are like that. Great race teams have the time to freeski built into the program.

 
racing is gay but I give them credit for training so hard and shit but racing is really gay

^^^ spoken like a true retard

All aspects of skiing technique and technology come from racing. Your microscopic view of our great sport is shameful at best!

The sport of skiing is WAY bigger than your local terrain park...and guess what sparky? Ski Racing is why we are all here today!!

Dont like it, switch to snowboarding...

 
Doesn't Bode have the crazy, almost out of control way back on the tails racing style? I think i remember that being really crazy to the ski racing world. It helped him shave off that precious tenth of a second or whatnot. It isn't a huge change to the ski racing world, but it is progression... slightly.

people in racing copy others style because that mofo's style kicks thier ass by a lot and they think wow to go faster i have to do that. plain and simple it isn't because they aren't creative or don't have style. it is a fact that looking cool or diffrent doesn't do shit for you time so they seek ways to improve by tried and true technique

====================

chill

It's my medicine
 
racing's cool, and if it you did it before getting on some twin tips your turns would look way sweeter, i mean is it really all that stylish to turn like a funkin monkey?

 
theres some close-minded people up in here. yeah, racing gets a lot more publicity now that bode is out there and won the cup and people know about it.. and he's getting more press and all of that.. but, obviously he's doing something right in order for that to happen.. within his sport of ski racing, hes definitely a huge progressor of it.. he's skiing different.. less cautious and a bit more careless and just kinda goes for it.. not everyone can pull this off, which is why he nearly didn't win the cup. no, i have never raced so i dont know what its like.. yes i do know a few ski racers and most of em seem pretty alright to be honest... but, skiing is getting bigger because of bode miller, end of story. you can hate on racing all you want, but, skiing is publicizing(sp?) a lot due to him, which may eventually run into our sport of skiing, too. just let it go, the dude is good whether you want to think so or not..

one love.
 
and how the fuck do u think any one gets to the park? i take the woods or what ever has sic terrain, then i make a run through the park and then hit up some more glades or dropps n shit so like one third of my time is spent in the park, probally less

it mite just happen with the racer haters on here...

'It stirs up envy,fame does.People.. feel fame gives them some kind of privilege to walk up to you and say anything to you-and it won't hurt your feelings-like it's happening to your clothing.I don't mind making jokes, but I don't want to look like one.
 
wow, all of this backlash is still lingering around from this fall.

In this case, i think the messanger is at fault (douchefuck @ the Denver Post.)

Fun fact, did anybody else know that Bode hates FIS as much as everybody who hates em within freeskiing. He's never toed the line, he's never goosestepped to their drum like all the Austrians he beats. the fact is, he's progressing skiing because he's the first American in a sport dominated by the Austrians.

Before all the little ticks on this site jump down my throat, chill out. i was as pissed as anybody when the whole shitstorm started in the Fall after the John meyer article. Now that it/s summer and i/m separated from the sport, i realize that it really is all skiing.

Of couse the progression in racing is not going to be as great as freeskiing. Freeskiing is still really young where as racing has been around for ages.

I never raced but I wish I had. All my friends who raced are amazing freeskiers now. They are so well balanced & have the balls & the skills to hit everything so fast.

 
Bode also progressed skiing by becoming the first skier to have a million dollor contract actualy now he got a 3 million dollor contract that kind of money and recognition goes a long way and opens many doors not just for racers but all of skiing.

Racing is an amazingly progressive, the style has changes so much, first it was one edge skiing on your downhill ski, now there are two edge turns, shorter ski, straighter lines.

the people dissing racers are clueless....hell I challenge anyone of you racer haters to a one legged switch gs race....I'll be at mammoth this weekend...tell ya what we can do it for pink slips...I win i take home you skis....

 
you guys sound like a bunch of ignorent fools. With out Racing there wouldent be freeskiing first off. And second off, if there was, we wouldnet have the skiers we have now, Like jon, henrik, pollard, olenicks, so get over it guys.

i definately agree that we wouldnt be here today if it wasnt for racing, just as an example, richie paradise used to be on the attitash racing team, and now hes a really sick freeskier. All of the well rounded freeskiers have a racing background. Just look at henrik windstedt, he is an incredible big-mountain skier and kills everything else, and he started off as a racer.
