I swear ppl here always complain that all of skiing is on IG nowadays and that they wanna see longer edits and then ppl post longer edits and nobody upvotes or watches them??? I’ve made a thread about this in the past for Rudy and now take these vids for example:

1040325.jpeg

1040326.jpeg

1040327.jpeg

These videos are sick af especially skigulls and why these vids don’t get more views and likes is beyond me like its no wonder ppl don’t post their vids on NS nobody fuckin upvotes them. Im not saying go on a frenzy and upvote everything and watch every vid but I mean shit, the sensorial quartet vid deserves more than 47 upvotes for sure. If you’re a lurker and you fw the site make an account quick and like the vids that you like.

I think making 2-3 min cuts is the play and ik u guys do too but if theres no demand for it its all gonna be shitty ig clips just sayin.

I swear the mods are gonna have to make sticky a thread where I just post the under-rated vids cuz I watch damn there everything on here and too many sick vids like skigulls go below the radar
 
People don’t have the patience to watch multi minute edits anymore, it’s what happens when all u see are 10 seconds blips on insta all day
 
just newschoolers sheep being newschoolers sheep tbh

100 percent agree but sometimes it's easy to miss videos when there's a lot of content uploaded frequently (what trick is this, first cork 7, etc)

I treat all ski content creators equally by not watching any of them.

This times 100,

I just don't have time to watch a dozen dad cam, fisheye lens, Travis Scott bass boosted, lil' East Coast hill edits before I find something good... better off to wait until the hype train hits, then watch it.
 
You’re point is definitely valid, and threads like this can only help spread awareness for these flicks. But like others have said wether it’s a time thing or a too much content thing sometimes it can be hard to see all of the good shit on NS. Not everyone unfortunately/fortunately is still in college or high school and has the time to comb through NS for a couple of hours every day ??‍♂️. But it’s definitely worth seeing as much content as you can to support these small creators. I think I watched and liked all of those vids and goddamn they are fire especially skigulls and the ender for sensorial quartet.

It’s good to see I’m not the only one seeing a disconnect. Attention span is degrading greatly in our generation and people will watch hours of Instagram clips over and over and never click the link for a full video. Some say the real videos suck, maybe we just have becomed so numb that we need 3 screens at the same time to feel something.

Anyways, always nice to see some people worry about the state of ski media.
 
As someone who never watched actual edits or films until this year, I totally get the attention span thing since before that it was all insta clips I saw. I can't just casually watch something longer I gotta like sit and commit to it
 
its tough to keep up with every edit dropping in the video section. i started that roast my edit thread for the exact reason that peoples hard work can go under the radar and there could be an extra spot for em. An underrated or underseen edit thread could be sweet. Maybe a potential solution is having a vote between 3-5 edits on the front page for underated edit of the week with the criteria that none were a VOD

Attention spans are for sure shrinking and i wonder where itll stop. if you think about it through history we went from oral histories known through epic ballads and legends before books became prolific, those ceded to radio then tv and now we're here. i dunno how much more it can shrink so maybe we'll see a reversal in the coming years as people buck the trend looking for more substance.

shoutout to @DominatorJacques for keeping it real and spreading positivity through comments on more videos than anyone else. thats how this site can regain more of its community feel

mill bastards make great edits on youtube, ‘specially if you like rails and fisheyes
 
Tis an inconvenient truth, as Al Gore would say. But who the fuck cares about the numbers and engagement of past years. Let's just drop the comparison and keep this shit alive no matter who sees it or doesn't.
 
Attention span has decreased because of sensory overload. We have so much bullshit competing for our attention day-in and day-out. People are constantly overwhelmed with shit competing for eyeballs. So yeah, that’s why attention spans are shorter now. Society has encouraged ADHD by trying to get your attention.

Yea, a lot of truth here.

Kinda sad.

People used to comment on people's video post.

When I have time, which I do, but not always, I will watch and comment etc.

People put time and effort into making an edit, so it's nice to acknowledge one's existence.

Sure, some are not always the cat's meow, but everyone has to start somewhere, be it filming, skiing, and editing.

I don't watch much Insata, I'd rather see the full meal ticket.

I still deal with ADD and OCD every day, but I can still watch a 5-minute edit!
 
I don’t really watch edits I only really watch movies cuz I can always count on stacked film crews to produce bangers. Unless I see an orange name uploading content to NS I usually don’t click. Shitty mentality but I’m busy man, work and shit

Its ironic because I also clip dump on NS but that’s more of like an archive for me to show my dad and his friends
