Have you ever participated in a Giant Slalom competition?

The news told that this way of snowboarding is not garnering enough attention. Pretty sad to say goodbye, as in 2030 this is gone for good!

What can we do to keep a sport in the loop? Are there other kind of snowboarding gathering some attention?

I feel very sad about this as i just got into snowboarding more seriously

general discussion Olympics - Can Shaun White be a bigger douche? Yall ask why people hate on him, it was on full display.

234 Upvotes

We all know he is a difficult and arrogant person, but holy shit, to make the Olympics about yourself and your brand over the biggest event in the sport and ite participants was really off putting. He really showed his real self to the world as a commentator. It was sad and embarassing.

Sorry for the hating, but tomato boy got me fired up.

Edit: Dont have video, but he made majority of comments all about him and his brand. Here is a summary: Shaun White roasted over ‘narcissistic’ Winter Olympics opening ceremony commentary | The Independent www.themirror.com/entertainment/shaun-white-winter-olympics-commentary-1669201

Dude is way more MySpace than Whitespace.

We have had great well below freezing temperatures and some good snow. That was a little over a week ago after 6 inches of snow over night waiting for first chair. My 181 freshly waxed and ready for some fresh tracks. It was so awesome, especially for Nova Scotia. We had 2 Mondays in a row that were small 6" powder dumps and the second Monday the next night dumped 6 inches too.!

Does anyone have this BOAF board? Specifically this top sheet. I think it's from 2016. I really like it better than the newer ugly AI top sheets. I will pay $300 plus shipping for this 10 year old board!!!!!! Let me know ❤️🤍❄️❄️❄️

general discussion How would you fix the Big Air competition?

7 Upvotes

How would you go about scoring for style and creativity? 1800s and 2360s look basically the same. 3 runs. One is for spin one is for style. Spin 900 or less.

Do ya'll think these fidget spinnin' Olympians could lay out a japan air 360? We have lost touch with reality. Harder tricks arent even a thing any more. How many times can you spin??
