Didnt mean to be harsh, just stimulate discussion. As I said, his style is not one I'm familiar with. Anybody know what nationality the guy is? This could help inform on his style. My guess would be Australian/New Zealander.

Is that tongue in cheek Brucie, or were you seriously criticising that guys technique???? :shock:

Not criticising as such Tony, The technique just looks odd and more like some flash w**ky demo type skiing!!
