Why did Wallisch stop competing in slope style?

[jjams]

Pretty simple, dude is great and it would be really cool to see him in more events.

 

[The.Fish]

Cause he doesn't need to risk getting hurt to be famous and get paid. Plus his knee is really bad

Pretty sure he also wanted to get back to focusing on dropping edits, hence why Good Company was started

Comps are for suckers. Announcing is where the real money is at.

 

[bikerocker]

Same reason I quit doing comps. Not being paid enough for the time/effort it takes to get paid for it.

 

[sal_krekorian]

Because he only skis for fun now

 

[Cadenmccullough]

Just simply getting old man. Park skiers usually don't compete much past 28ish.

 

[chris.goodhue]

you must not understand how hard it is on your body to compete at that level....

 

[Casey]

He got a full spot in a north face Ad during Sunday Night Football. Do future spins, get paid.

 

[oxiclean]

He wasn't finna.

 

[lil.Boye]

He wanted to quit comp skiing to film movies. He started up good company to make movies with other talented skiers. Tbh good company don't really tickle my pickle. Skiers are great and the tricls are insane. But something aboug the editing and the music.

He blew his knee trying to qualify for the Olympics and probably decided it wasn't worth it after that.

So funny that Mort just gets random down votes because of the ON3P thread.

LOL its hilarious to see fanboys like you discussing something you have no clue about. You're all so off base on everything its comical.

Is it really? Like beyond his ACL injury in 2014?

I have noticed that he doesn't ride as hard as he used to. Don't get me wrong, his park shots are massive and mind blowing... but when it comes to just skiing in the park, he definetly does not push it like he used to.

 

[Park_Ranger]

Because honestly, he is bigger than most comps. Kind of like Candide, why would he risk his body and waste his time on the comp circuit when he could be filming commercials, working on major projects with first class production, crushing fun/crazy stuff your sponsors build for you - having fun and getting seriously paid while leaving a true mark on the sport, as opposed to training a comp run and dealing with all the bullshit that comes with that?

Henrik will be at this point in a little bit.

 

[skierman]

it ain't all about the bread

In this case it is, you fucking idiot.

*guaranteed money without the risk of injury, yes a shit ton more. Tell me more about all your friends who comment for events, you ignorant piece of trash.

Do you have a life?

 

[Rennis_Deynolds]

y'all dumb, he quit bc you have to wear a helmet in competitions, for the sake of what little hair he had left he decided to postpone his competition life to undergo rigorous hair transplants

 

[Deepskier]

His magic was in his hair.

 

[gucciman7]

Bc the more two pretz twos on the first rail he did, the more gay he was
