The end is near

[TheArgument]

john duhamel does men in the butt...

and eats chocolaty chocolaats all ze time

 

[yeahitsdave]

espn is owned by disney, no way the nhl bought disney, or even a part of it.

 

[[~_~]]

what the hell are you talking about? Armada is one of the top ski companies in the industry, they wouldnt just "go under".

 

[Campeador]

X Games are dead, no one gives a shit about it anymore.

I think its a change for the best.

All of you bitching are fools, the less exposure the more we have skiing to ourselves without it becoming saturated.

There will still be the US Open and other events for true skiers to watch and enjoy, fuck the general public, let them watch their snowboarding and go ride the park in their clip in bindings.

 

[jacobski]

I think I read something on FS.com that said JOI was coming stateside next year, is that true?

 

[Luckyscs]

Im so confused.

 

[kj_hud]

espn was def. not bought out by the nhl. and i dont believe any of these rumors freeskiing is becoming way too popular to have it be canceled in the xgames. US open and Aspen open wont be canceled either. VTO sucks so I see that going down. Armada is not going under cause they have Tanner. These rumors are all fuckin stupid and I wont believe one iota of anything until I see some credible sources behind these fabricated claims

 

[faux_real]

damn. i thought this thread was going to be about imus

 

[overyourhead1]

i hear so much shit talked on this site

 

[followCam]

Yeh the JOI is done under that name. Next year is gonna be a comp or something run by Jon but just not his invitational.

 

[SnowMedic]

masters is not dead, just lack of funding, snow and othe political bs. Next year.

 

[skiierman]

Dude fuck that, I'd watch skiing on television any day over on my computer or in next year's films.

 

[STACKS]

skiierman strikes again

 

[DDrem.]

theres still candide invitational, xgames (the rumors of its demise are not true), ski tour with more stops, wsi, vt/us open and plenty more. just because one event is canceled doesnt mean its the end of skiing or that another event cant start

 

[SkiMN]

A lot of bullshit, either way I dont give a shit.

Comps arent where skiing is going if you ask me. Somebody name the last amazingly progressive thing that was first thrown down because of a comp, and I'll delete my account.

 

[mr_mckee]

if those all end more will come

 

[slopestyle4331]

its all bull shit but who cares we dont ski to watch pros go insane

just go ski with your friends and have a good time

the only reason they would be cancelled is if there is not enough interest which then puts it on us not the ski industry

 

[parkchilla]

i agree, candides jumps looked sketchy

 

[mr_mckee]

true dat

 

[Abes2009]

if its true, then weak.
