Shout Out to JSkis and JLev

topic:JWillySkeez said:
I have seen multiple people recently claiming that JSkis is just a clever marketing scheme and JLev is not really doing much for the ski industry. I just wanted to share this to clear things up and show that JLev is indeed a baller.

The whole thing is about an hour long.

It is a sad sad world when people have to defend JLev and his skis along with his contribution/ inventing of twin tip skis. I really think its just a couple of 14 years old kids talking crap so they get more clicks on NS. Don't fall for their bait.
 
Don't get me wrong, Jason is a cool cat. He took skiing up by the balls.But the impression J skis gives off can kind of be seen as marketing scam.You feel like you are getting a

Special product where there are only 99 others with the same tantalizing graffics that probably lured you in the first place.

Please for the love of god, tell me how I trashed J Skis in any way by making that thread. Holy fuck. This site has some of the most sensitive pricks.

I simply stated the impression that J Skis has given me and asked for other people's input. I never put down his important accomplishments in any way. Jason has done a lot of good things for the ski industry, but J Skis hasn't had a huge effect on anything (That's called an opinion).

This thread is directed towards the thread I just posted a few days back. All the fanboys get flustered when you bring up something negative about their favorite company.

See above^^

No one gives a shit what your opinion is, they just have a different opinion and they're doing exactly what you're doing and expressing what theirs is. It goes both ways haha.

I do like the graphics on the skis, although I was posting this as a neutral party seeing as I do not own JSkis.

Oh, you mean the one thread? Out of the 33 replies that are currently in there, a majority of them are members saying how much they like their JSkis, a few posts discussing different edge styles, and maybe 4 posts that could possibly be construed as hating on JSkis.

I've seen more than one and I don't see the big deal with voicing an opinion everybody is entitled to think what they want and I can respect that you think that this is a shit thread, I've had the same opinion on a lot of the hoopla that comes trough NS.

I don't know... I see it a lot. Sure, there's only been one thread about it recently. However, I've seen enough threads about it in gear talk and ski gabber that I'd almost consider the thread a repost.
