It helps me out with jump turns for sure, and in tight situations and on the out track pumping through the woods.

I will challenge any of you in a jib off in my my hard boots and I gaurentee you i will win.

Really? I got some beers, that says I can still jib with the best of em :guinness:

Your photos ain’t working, but I’m down.

My favorite has always been dirksens arm…

christoph- anytime you wanna jib down, lets!! :thumpsup: I spent some years playing in the park and the one thing all the jumping and jibbing has taught me is the ONEness with my board, its not just connected to my feet, it is an extension of my body, so I can butter press, nollie spin, 270, bluntslide even, whatever, it just gives you that power to know you can control the board in almost any situation. It really helps you learn the traits of the snowboard in an expressed way. And now I am looking to cab down cliffs and Ollie rocks, slide logs over uncovered terrain, just be able to handle anything in your way.

Maybe at this years splitfest in pdx we should have a jib contest everyone who enters brings a 6 pack, either winner takes all or if there are enough entrants we could divie up the prizes :guinness:

For sure, I was already thinking hard boot vs. soft boot big air contest, but some jib features would just up the ante… 8)

Im hella down to have a jib contest with some splitters I bet that shit would be SO FUNNY!!!

HB outdoing softboots on rails- NO FUCKING CHANCE- (even in walk mode 😆 ) sorry dooode… :nononno:

I’ll bet “the other Jeremy Jones” in hard boots would beat any soft booter on this site.

+1

This has to happen! So many laughs would go down 😆

Johan Olofsson’s segment in TB5 (1995) still inspires me to this day. At about 3 minutes in Johan starts the “3000ft of vert around ~50degree in 35 seconds experience”. Johan’s segment in TB5 has shaped my approach to how I read lines and stands the test of time. I don’t care what your front or trailing arm is doing or what kind of boot/snowboard you prefer. If you ride with style, it will be obvious to all of those who bear witness. Johan’s part in TB5 is sick and inspiring.

I always feel bad for whoever Peter Ström is after watching that.

Johan’s riding is aggressive, impressive, inspiring, physical, and scrappy. A key element of steez is that it looks easy. He’s got impeccable line choice and is just barely holding on in this segment.
He goes for the biggest, baddest trick he can pull off and barely sticks many landings. At 0:30, he send that double by ratcheting his body around: jerk the board, jerk the body, jerk the board, jerk the body. Repeat until pointing the right direction.
Steezy sevens are thrown smooth, tucked, and in control. :thatrocks:

smooth efficient turns and line choice looks good, and aint that what steez is?

Here’s another vote for epic line choice, maintaining flow, low center of gravity, smooth, and in control. Dirksen and Burt all the way. :thumpsup:
