A Skier Reacts to X GAMES 2023 BIG AIR **Defying Physics**

[@ddandymann]

Big respect to A Hall for focusing on style and creativity over spins and ignoring the judges.

[@4LFlacko]

this part.

[@johndematte2166]

Sigma skier mindset

[@Maghan98]

well the judges gave is cork 180 a 36, which is a respectable score everything considered. I really liked seeing him get rewarded for clean simplicity and creativity

[@peterwinters8587]

Seems he took the event as practice

[@dynamo4436]

@@Maghan98 i don't think that any skiers is able to do a cork 1 on such a big jump and with that dipped style of a hall. a 36 is quite low i think. but i suck at freestyle skiing so i don't know how hard any of those tricks really is

[@StreetShamann]

When you sign a contract to commentate every snow event for the rest of history make sure you negotiate to be able to keep doing this KZbin stuff too.

[@Jarrodocity]

Dude. I freaking LOVE your commentary. It's ruined all other ski commentary for me. Everyone else is SO BORING! I hope you get some opportunities to do this for live TV. Keep on keepin' on.

[@Skyl3t0n]

@@elteho51 Well you can cry all you want, but isn't this proof that X Games should get into contact with him asap?

[@timthe55th]

We need you commentating these events, no commentator is as fun to listen to as you.

[@Raftatv]

the use of the runescape tune in there was beautiful :)

[@hoptoad5367]

“Noah took two of every animal on the ark, but you gotta make sure these guys have a spot.” Nick you never fail to make me chuckle bro, always hype for the xgames reactions

[@Johannesolsn]

Hahaha that was too funny

[@cndngoose]

Pretty sure he said yacht not ark, even funnier 😂

[@DahWiggy]

I’ve been subbed to steepsteep for about a year now. As a non-skier/snowboarder/skateboarder, I literally think there’s been at least a word I don’t know in every sentence he’s ever said. But I love it. I could listen to this guy talk about literally anything he’s passionate about I think, the energy is what keeps me coming back.

[@GTAG33K]

You know what would be cool, if you reacted to the progression of big air tricks or knucklehuck tricks within the last 20 years or the defining moments of the sport that advanced it to where its at now. Also keep up the good work love the commentary videos

[@nic_20043]

Dude, your announcer skills are really getting up there. Keep this up and I think you can announce the x-games or events like it someday. You have the knowledge, the energy, the enthusiasm, and most importantly you are really good at highlighting how difficult these tricks are and the differences between them. Cheers!

[@tstahl5916]

Love how you put things into perspective and really make this feel real. These dudes are wild

[@-.-1724]

I feel like AHall saw the consistency with which the others were hitting 1800+ rotations and was just like >not feeling this today, Ill just have some fun

[@Pullhooker]

You know A Hall could have thrown the 21's if he wanted and won that, i like the steez more

INCREDIBLE x games performances this year!

Loving the RuneScape theme song come up at 15:00. Nice!

[@jonathanman7751]

Bro I love your commentary !! It’s the best there is in the ski industry & in general!! Do more videos like this!!!

[@ryanvanheck2571]

In case you were wondering your commentary does indeed add to the competition, I already saw the whole thing and now am rewatching learning lots and laughing just as much please keep it up steep woooo!!!!

[@mitchelljarvis2944]

I literally wait for steepsteep for my x games fix. No words can describe how excited I am for your snowboard knuckle huck reaction

[@ejejej9200]

This channel is by far the best way to watch. So much more entertaining than anything else. Bravo!

[@miles9294]

Please commentate on the x games in the future, would much rather listen to you than anyone else

[@JakeWolven]

literally, some of the commentators were already expecting failure as the guys were dropping in yesterday

[@DaceH]

I watched this live as I was cheering my cousin Teal Harle on. It's awesome to hear your description of his incredible air awareness.

[@johngiese7479]

I swear I always think I've heard it all in terms of your commentary... but man oh man you're just fkn hysterical. The passion. Hell yes brother.

[@Truth001]

I wanna see some steezy floaty 360s or something because i think the spins are getting out of hand

[@Idk-hy3tn]

I agree

[@froznfire9531]

Why its true, all of them can easily do 360s with different styles ofc Certainly not all can do 2160s xD They could make the jump smaller and give more points for style but dont know if thats the future

[@ogficht]

@@froznfire9531 I have a feeling that the future lies in the streets, yeah its cool to spin 8 times off a perfectly curated jump, lets see how they do in an urban environment (Im thinking about that clip where a guy sends it off a 2 story balcony with a dub frontflip). The knuckle huck and the stuff that alex hall did is also a pointer to the future I believe, there is more to freestyle skiing than just flying through the air (I know this event is called big air so idk how this event specifically will evolve)

[@froznfire9531]

@@ogficht But I guess thats why there are many different events :) Knuckle is for style, BIg Air for those big rotations and slopestyle more of a mix between everything Arent there some street comps too? Not in X Games Aspen though, true that

[@TBasianeyes]

@@froznfire9531 how much smaller can they make it, these guys still do 3 rotations of the knuckle

[@MOAB-UT]

I am a great skier- basically my whole life. Was even a big mountain instructor. These guys are on another level. I have skied with them- they make it look effortless. They are also nuts and risk injuries everytime they do this.

[@Herman-iy1um]

you really should react to the mens snowboard big air aswell, hella crazy

[@ryanmyles3020]

Just about to comment the same thing. Both sports went crazy this year!!!

[@azerierl3928]

A reason why these guys are so good is the amount of trampoline work they do in to off season. If you think about it, they are just gymnist hitting 100 foot jumps
