What's a Vacay? I've never been on much of one. Does being poor qualify as being super green? If so, cool, I'm crazy fucking green.
These rich kid ig stars sure ain't that green imho.
Oh wait, I need to advocate more for climate change movement........bah hahahaha!
Yeah, being poor can definitely be green. For real.Quote:

Sounds rough.
Jesus, give 'em a break, the guy rode across the country, the ride ended on the east coast so they went to the beach. BFD.
There are legit things about her schtick to take issue with but this ain't one of them.
I’m kind of kidding FWIW.Quote:

That would actually pretty cool if they used their social media presence to make such a thing a reality. I dunno, troll around for empty seats on whatever means of transportation they could.Quote:

I applaud her accomplishments, she had a respectable start on her activism IMO but she's WAY off the rails now. She'll continue to circle the drain to irrelevance.
Just got aboard the hate wagon.
Well at least I got that going for me :DQuote:

Coalition should focus more on building skis people might want to buy and don't look like a high school project.
I still love Kasha Rigby.

Honestly, if you look at ski companies compared to snowboard companies in how they approach women's products it's pretty fucking embarrassing for skiing. I'm glad that there are brands that are trying to call people out on that. There are plenty of women who are good enough to make that movie. Not including any is a choice that MSP made, and came off looking pretty fucking pathetic trying to defend it.Quote:

make your own.
it's much , much easier to bitch on insta and drop an f-bomb or 2.
talk is cheap. so are likes.
so fitting that this is in a gleich thread
It’s lazy. MSP knows better but they don’t care enough to make even the slightest effort to put different people in their movies.Quote:

????? The whole point of your argument is they found a completely different crew this season....Quote:

MSP has done more to showcase the capabilities and equality of women's skiing over their history of movies than any other film company of similar history. Throughout the 2000s they were finding real, capable female skiers who showed women can ski as well as hard as men. I remember being blown away by Wendy's skiing back in 2000 and Ingrid in the mid 2000s. During this time most other companies were including a single token segment mashed together of a handful of female skiers who were sponsored more for bikini shots than skiing.
This year MSP went and made a film with a group of small group of skiers they wanted to work with, just like last year. Turns out there were no gals in the crew, it happens, especially in a sport where most folks are guys. One movie, one year does not mean MSP doesn't value female skiers. To think otherwise is fucking pathetic and to say so is just a cry for attention. Coalition can't get attention for their skis because they suck, so they resort to building credibility through virtue signalling.
Fixed it for you.Quote:

You can't fault MSP. If you do, then you don't know how ski movie production works. There are plenty of sponsored skiers who don't make it into a film every year. Its not that they don't have the talent, it's their sponsor(s) not sponsoring them to be in the movie. Totes quid pro quo.
Who's fault is that?
False. Any guesses on how much these companies pay to have their athletes in a ski movie? Sponsors drive these movies, that’s why TGR movies resemble an hour long REI/Ford ad.Quote:

maybe they'll get free lodging but are more frequently than you'd expect, funding it themselves to the tune of like $10k+, however they manage that
Yeah, sure, what do you know about sponsored skiers... ;)Quote:
