ya, i know this was one of the first posts, and i know that this point has been made about 1000 times on NS, but that's exactly who these kids are for the most part. snowboarding is so full of followers these days who talk made shit but cant even boardslide a ride-on flat box with consistency...it's sooooo fucking irritating.
to this day, i think 99% of the hate i hear on the hill is from guys like this. good boarders respect skill and courage no matter who it is (as long as we're not talking about bladers), so theyre not to blame.
