Worst Looking Tricks

So we all talk about our favorite tricks to do/see? So what's your least favorite trick to either see or try? For me personally, I cannot stand seeing people do Lip Front 2s, it just looks ridiculous in my opinion
 
Maks gorham (in the Slopestyle One edit) is one of the skiers.

Also, straddling onto rails that shouldnt be straddled onto. Like, just learn to side hit, straddling looks so ugly
 
also, small fronts and frontflips off knuckles...if its not massive and you are older than, say, 12...shit looks whack....

to me
 
jumping over the first down of a DFD and then jumping over the second down of the DFD. Why did this ever become such a popular thing to do?
 
I hate seeing some of the stuff real skifi does, like where they stall on a rail, jump off of the rail, step back on to the rail, jump off again, then ski underneath it. I just picture what someone who doesn't understand skiing would think of that, there's no way they think it would be cool or smooth looking.
 
True, but I love watching those edits and seeing some of the stuff they do. Half of their tricks leave me thinking "How the fuck" and the other half "Never seen that before." I will agree their skiing doesn't appear be the smoothest but their creativity and uniqueness sets them apart from everyone else.
 
Definitely. There's no doubt that those kids slay urban, I just remember a few shots from partly cloudy that made think that they're trying way to hard to be creative. Using "props" to ski just makes me think of the ski ballet days.
 
I dont know why everyone hates lip on , front 2 out. Its a fun trick to do and i think it looks fine
 
spin onto surface level box and continue spinning on the box then afterbang out .....

also charging up to a feature switch then spin to regular like 10ft before it

and like state above.. people that skip the kinks on rails thinking its more technical
 
This thread is balls. Most of the people bitching probably can't even do the majority of these tricks.

Gapers gonna gape
 
The only trick that really bothers me is those intentional washout landing tricks. just looks ugly/isnt difficult.
 
I agree some tricks look ugly and may be different. And obviously some tricks are better looking than others. But this is free skiing. You should be aloud to do whatever you want to do
 
Dubs are so ugly, and every ski movie shows athletes who do nothing but dubs. Im sorry, I know dubs are the hardest tricks, but it looks so much like hucking and waiting until the end. Since the rotations are so big, everybody spins them the same way.

 
Switch dub 9s and 10s with japan, where they flip directly over their head. On the other hand, if the spin is corked out, it looks sick as fuck.
