Walter Wood to the rescue.

Photoshop please?
 
its funny that pro pipe skiers are hating when pipe skiers in general usually have at least one hit where they pretty much don't grab. Save a few of the better guys half the field usually has some kind of wrapped trick completely grabless. Tanner helped pioneer that
 
Thank you Logan for Putting this thread straight.

TRob, you're a fucking idiot. I'm not going to even give your opinion enough respect by arguing it. if you would like to list you bio, credentials, accomplishments, summary of your attitude of skiing and a thesis about staying core and making logical decisions, I will read and reassess. But for know, you sound like a dumb piece of shit kid.
 
Gold, Jerry.

Seriously though, calling someone out for filming a commercial is just embarrassing. Andy has it right. This has no negative impact on anyone and if it puts a few bucks in her pocket, good for her.

Maybe it would be easier if T Hall could just post his all-caps list of the rules of how to behave when you're a freeskier. Things you can do, things you can't. You know, so we can pretty much ignore it completely. Logan's dead on here but as much as WW shouldn't be calling people out for not being able to grab their pipe tricks, it's even more ridiculous for Tanner Hall to be moralizing to skiers on how to behave in the industry... I seem to recall one or two mistakes he may have made during the course of his illustrious career.
 
Nah that would be you for feeling the need to put everyone down out of some weird sense of self loathing and taking a sport like skiing way to seriously. Ski down the mountain and shut the fuck up honestly.
 
This shit is comepletely ridiculous. We dont even know what the commercial is going to use this shot for... it could even be the 2014 version of this:

People are overreacting. For photoshoots like this for commercials, its all about cost. Her going up in front of a greenscreen in an completely controlled enviroment is a million times less expensive then trying to create it on real snow, in a real pipe, on real mountains.
 
Yeah, but you gotta understand that's totally out of his control. He's not the one putting the sequence together / designing the ad.

Who remembers the sequence of JF Houle, where they replaced one of the frames of him landing with a cartoon character or something?
 
Boooo! I was hoping I was going to get forgotten about on this page. This is most definitely not a big deal as everyone has told me in this thread and rope shoots will probably never become the norm. If I had to pick and choose battles it wouldn't have been this one and I wouldn't donate money to the anti-rope crusade. This was the biggest topic of the day so I dove in. Did I sound over-the-top-slippery-slope about ropes, probably. Do I want to see more rope shoots? No.
 
Nothing against Roz. Just thought it was funny to see that comment and a green screen.

You're right Logan, when I was younger I liked to spin and didn't grab a lot. My skiing has changed a lot after 2 knee injuries.

NS is it's own world, Tanner "stirring the pot" is hysterical.

Life's too short. You have to be able to laugh at yourself. ITS SKIING, were not curing cancer haha. Enjoy it and don't take it too seriously.

I love skiing and think this is so funny.

Keep posting the hate! It's hysterical!

(Ps "Download My App" I worked 2 jobs the whole summer and rehabbing my knee so I can just ski this season like you guys living in and out if my car. Donations from my parents 'well-off' friends to help pay for travel would help me tremendously. I'm not gonna boycott a potential shot at the Olympics. It's better than going to school and working a desk job the whole winter)
 
And I do understand how fortunate I am just to get a pair of skis for the season. I couldn't afford to ski on my own without that help.
 
Besides the who call out and sell out thing going on, I don't see what's wrong with the photo.

This was shot on Toronto, I'm assuming it's for CTV, which is Canada's host provider for the Olympics.

She's in front of a green screen, which means that she'll most likely be keyed out of it, and keyed into a layer which has an event venue background on it.

If it's some kind of graphic that is going to be added built up and added onto the current event running, doing a green screen would be the best way to build this graphic.

For those who have ever used tv production equipment (switchers, graphics machines), you'd know this is a ton easier than you think it would be than filming, and adding layers and effects later.
 
Don't know what everyone's bitching about. That is the sickest pinata I've ever seen. Can I get one for my next Birthday Party?

Selling out would be her sending it in the pipe for a McDonalds commercial. This is the next level, she is getting paid to fake skiing. She should donate any money she made doing this to her teammates who got their funding cut.
 
A) saying "Nothing against Roz" after you blatantly hated on her makes you look like a fucking idiot. taking the moral "high road" after you started the hate thread is retarded.

B) it's so fucking lame when people bring their knee injuries into a conversation like this. we are skiers. we have all blown our knees. it sucks.

C) props for working two jobs this summer. but if you didn't make enough to fund a ski season working as hard as you make it sound you did, i would consider looking at real trade work (framing, landscaping, etc.), not jobs like coaching a local gymnastics program 2 nights a week.

(C was a blatant assumption. but hey, i thought it was funny. if i'm wrong so be it)
 
I think green screens are absolutely a blast to work with. I think this is great. Have fun Roz. Oh yeah, she did have fun, that is why she posted it. Cool. No problems with that. Oh wait, there's more? She had fun AND she got paid? Better still.
 
I like to make blatantly offensive ridiculous comments that make me sound like an idiot and then when people call me out for it I tell them 'laugh, it's the Internet' and 'chill out and ski'

Who am I?

A) Walter Wood

B) Tanner Hall

C) All of the above
 
Don't go "nothing against roz" when you started it. when people make you look like an asshole on the internet just say, "fuck me i was wrong" and move on. Don't backpedal and defend yourself it just makes you look like a bigger jackass.
 
Something so gay about a person trying to get to the olympics calling someone out for doing the homo shit they would have to do if they did make it to the olympics. Just do some drugs, go skiing and call it a day.
