Textbook is dead?? newstyle?

[Lansfield]

so i was at Fortune,and we wer all jammin on a box. so there wer some pretty good ppl there, and this one guy threw down a 2 on, 3 up, 4 out. it was insane, but no one said anything. so at my run, i decicded to do a stupid trick i learned in my backyard during pre season, pretty much a screaming semen on a box. i landed it, and ppl got stoked. and that got me thinking: why is it that a simple, easy trick seems more inpressive and generates more hype than a sweet, but text book trick? skiing is evolving faster than ever, but almost it seems in 2 directions, theres all the triple corks, and x games\dew tour, but then hippy killers and early grabs, and new tricks on flat or little jibscoming from windells or coc everyday. whats happing to text book? is it a phase, or is skiing taking a whole new direction?

im pretty sure the whole thing about skiing going in two directions has been what everybody has been saying for the pats year or so?

 

[UFOsarereal]

they've been talking about it since the beginning of competitions... but it seems to be getting more & more pronounced every year now.

& OP... I think your trick probably looked fun & different & not like something designed to score points.... just like people get more hyped when there's a gaper day on or something.

its alright, after the olympics all the hippies will go away and we can get back to doing triples again.
