US snowboarders upset about Canadian team's tight pants
- Thread starter big-ted
- Start date
few things i learned from the article.
-the proper usage of "gurn"
-skins suits wont help you win, gorilla suits will
-Nate Holland is a whiny bitch
p.s.- why is this in the DH forum?

I guess that Canadian can sit around in his tight pants fondling his silver medal while Nate Holland can sit around in his baggy pants fondling his balls.
My favorite though was the US snowboarder complaining about how the tight pants took away from the anti-establishment crap of snowboarding when the team is sponsored by Nike, Microsoft, etc....

Let me reiterate, if someone provides me a gorilla suit, I will race in it.
it will be available for you for the first Platty race
Haha....... That's awesome. What a cowering little girl that the canadian guy would actually apologize and go change.
I would have told Nate it's so he can appreciate my sweet ass as he stares at the back of it down the course. It's like all the little complaining girls who whined when palmer mouthed off at starting gates. Throw that shlt right back in their face. Holland of all people can take it.

Anyone see the Canadians short track speed skating tights......?....super ugly...then they're all scruffy while in those skin tight trainwrecks........
USA Mogul uniform looked pretty awful too...Canadian Mogul uni's really cool though.....

Although is reasoning may be off point, it's pretty sweet to win a gold medal in your favorite pair of Levi's.
those are pretty sweet, actually. assuming they're using some sort of technical fabric:
surprised the boardercrossers aren't doing the skinny jean skate style though; aero AND fashionable / 'anti-establishment'(tm)

Thought the course was terribly slow.....the racing was good but had the look of being slow on TV.....too many slow jumps.....
he won't show at platty
Is this a race or a gay fashion show? Just as ridiculous as the UCI DH no skin suit rule.

hellz yea!!!!
I thought the course was great. Lots of tech jumps to mess up the flow. It made for lots of passes all the way down the course.
nice try jerk. I missed part of last season because I had to come up with 2 grand on short notice so I could put a security deposit on a new apartment
Good point.
Could see the aspect of it.....just thought there were a few too many of those sections...
keep in mind, they were racing on snow that had been airlifted in from another mountain, and piled on top of wooden structures and hay bales.
What kind of racers spend there time worrying about how tight the other guy's pants are?
gosh
gosh
yeah.....maybe if the course was mostly froozen it would have been warp speed.....the snow did look loose and grainy, viewing from the couch......
it looked pretty bumpy too. probably a result of uneven packing and settling of snow, and lack of machine grooming.
Yeah, the berms were gnarly. Half the wrecks were a result of getting crossed up on the chatter in the corners.
Yeah, it didnt help that the event followed the mens downhill. Those dudes rip it down hill fast!!! Its the first thing I noticed watching last night. Going from supersonic speed downhill to struggling to get out of the gate and over the first lip. both events were fun to watch though.
My point. You missed it.
The ski cross on that course is going to be mental, completely different level of speed and control.
Sir, do you know you are posting on ridemonkey?
OMG Seth's race run from last to first was awesome. Too bad I had to wait thru tons of figure skating to see it. Should just DVR it....
I would not want to race on slush, but at least its the same for everyone. Seeing knuckle draggers eat it by driving their leading foot into the snow is more entertaining than I thought! What did he call it? "East coast foot" or something?
Oh and way to "police", Holland

I'm way out of it obviously- but where is Palm? He didn't make the team? Injured groin from pant testing?
I was wondering that last night when it came on. Turns out he didn't make the team: http://www.palmerproject.com/news-reviews/news-reviews/us-olympic-team-palmer-misses-the-cut/58075b258c/?tx_ttnews[backPid]=1
I didn't read the Holland comment as busting on the tight jeans. I read it on their reason for going to tight jeans wasn't to swing a fashion trend, but to gain time. I don't get it. If Steve Peat busts out a "skin suit wearing faggots", everyone is on board and chuckling. Why aren't we laughing that Holland did the same thing?
As for Palmer, that sucked but at the same time was an AWESOME last effort. In typical Palmer fashion, his only shot in the last event was to finish top two. He hadn't even cracked top 5 the entire season. So what does he do? FIGHT and pull out a 3rd when he could have just looked at his other results and said "I got no shot!".
Again, irony of irony is that the guy who took second was Palmers alternate in 2006. He should have stepped aside and let Napalm take it. If not for Palmer's injury, he'd have sit at home on the couch. Pull off, let Palm go one time. Dude has plenty more chances to go for the gold.
But hey...even I wouldn't let Palm pass me if I thought I had the shot 10 times!
Sounds like snowboarders are as much whiny fashion whores as top-level DHers...
Yeah, tight pants sure are ridiculous.
I heard the word "gurned" about 10 years ago. I never thought I'd actually hear it again.
Some of us are.
No
No he shouldn't have. He EARNED a spot. You should know damn well the palmolive would never do the same.....because he didn't......regardless of how much you liked watching him ride a bicycle. You can't blame someone else's success on palmer's injury. That's a BS assumption.
Man, I love that snowboarders aren't bending over for the Olympics!
Personally I don't like baggy '90s skate style much anymore. But I love Rock & Roll, and doing what you love without compromise.
This Holland guy is like Morrison calling out The Birds for playing pussy covers of Dylan tunes. Rock & Roll forever!
