Superunknown VIII Finalist Released one by one

haha, i just said if you want to do it for fun go for it you fucking moron.

i, personally, just don't like to see that shit in an edit. if you like to watch edits with mountainous lips and everyone sliding right foot forward, cool, that's what you're into.
 
Boom, just becaus one sport has a limitaton doesnt mean we all shouldnt do it. We ski on snow not grass
 
haha just read the whole threads. ski for fun if you want to, but streets is all about getting shots and everybody who hit urban will tell you. theres a line between getting shots/ have fun.
 
That's obviously because they aren't trying hard enough. If Frank Raymond can do it, anyone that is physically similar to him has the ability to do it. I watched Giray Dadali nollie on to lipslide a 2.5+ foot flat rail from flat ground a couple days ago. Skiers CAN pop as high, if they try.

This argument is dumb. Small lips are better than large lips. Inside jumps are better than outside jumps. Why? Because in freeskiing, that's what's cooler, more difficult, and more technical, besides in most people's opinions, more aesthetically pleasing. Sure, you can disagree if you want, but keep in mind you're disagreeing with 90 percent of the industry, and this is an industry contest.
 
You don't need an essay. If you want to impress people by doing tricks on urban instead of doing them in the park then there are 3 rules that make the difference.

1.lip should be one step or less high if it is a down rail or less than half the hight of the rail if its flat or really mellow.

2.kicker should be above stairs.

3.if there are stairs they should have been cleared.

If you just want to do hard tricks and don't care what feature they are done on you as well doing them in the park. If you don't follow those rules they will be no more impressive on street. If you're just sking for fun and don't care about impressing people, you don't need to make an edit and definitely don't want to enter a competition.

The fact that people don't understand these concepts baffles me.
 
yeah, just don't film it and expect people to be impressed if you do it in pussy, half assed manner.
 
you know what baffles me, you guys repeating the same shit for the past 10 pages, trying to convince people, how to properly do urban
 
Don't you mean that they wont understand it? Cos like I don't even think they're trollin.
 
didn't you know doing unnatural tricks is only for contests, look at all your favorite pros movie segments barely any unnatural tricks
 
I haven't put a unnat 540-720 for 2 reasons

1. It would not fit with the banger vibe we tried to give to this edit.

2.I don't think it really shows you can spin both ways to put a unnat 5. The guys who have unnat cork 9 mute or sw unnat 10 blunt really shows they can do it. So I decided not tu use the small unnat tricks and trade them to some dubs and well corked tricks.

And if I lose points for that: my bad
 
to get back to the starting point of yours

im sure berman looked at ben's superunknown and said ''oh ! sucks but hes def not going to win , he didnt put a unnat trick! damn that boy is not versatile

insert whatever picture u want cuz im so lame and i dont know shit
 
im not saying its a dealbreaker, berman is obviously smarter than that. however, it's 2011, and this isnt exactly an amateur film contest/company.

and im not talking right 5 or 7. i wanna see big tricks both ways. put all 4 tens in your edit. that truly showcases talent. i dont give a fuck if you can do temporary tornado dub 12.
 
CAN WE PLEASE NAME THE FIRST TRUE TRIPLE CORK THE "TEMPORARY TORNADO"

KINDA LIKE KANG FLIP HAS ITS OWN NAME...TEMPORARY TORNADO IS JUST TOO EPIC OF A NAME...ITS REALLY MADE FOR ESPN
 
im not saying its a dealbreaker ... well you said it was --- '' you can't honestly expect to win superunknown without spinning both ways, right?''

and for the 4 tens part , all of established pros dont even have that in their bag of tricks...

yessss ced!!
 
SuperUnknown isn't selecting an "average skier." And I really don't think anyone was saying that the lips had to be as small as the ones Frank Raymond would build but the lips in that kid's edit were way too big by anyone's standards. He didn't have to pop at all
 
I feel like I'm trying to tell something to a 6 years-old kid who just reply the opposite thing you just said to piss you off. Dude think whatever you want about me, I don't have to prove you anything. Just don't like my SU entry, I don't care ... there's always gonna have haters.
 
YESSS CEDRIK!

hahahahahahahaha you r such an idiot ! just dont watch it if u dont like it. stop hating and you should watch other videos of him to see how talented he is for a 16 years old. If he's part of the finalist maybe there's a reason why and maybe because he has potential.
 
dude his landings were clean tights pants or not... and with baggy shit it would have been pretty much flawless
