I have a question, how come the one kid is sponsored by nike. most of them couldnt even finish most of the rails except for the kid in the black. I mean they were decent none were sponsor worthy though.

Yea, I didn't like the first video too much either. That guy sponsored by Nike is also sponsored by K2 Telemark and he's thrown some pretty sick shit, but in that video he was pretty tame. Tele in the park is still way behind alpine in any case though. Part of the reason, I think, why freeheelers aren't seen as sicker than they are is that they don't use that free heel to their advantage in their tricks. Most of them are just skiing like they're on alpines.

Was the ben in the first video you? Freeheel freestylers make me pee myself. I have video of a guy in tele's doing a 5 or switch 3 over a 50+ foot kicker. I'll have to dig it up. I think he cleans a S rail as well.

That'd be a sick video to see. The ben in the video is Ben Dolenc and he's the guy sponsored by K2 and Nike. I don't know how long he's been on the tele scene, but he's definitely one of the big names.

... found it, I guess its only a 180, I'm not sure on the 50+ foot kicker either. He does throw a nice 3 over something big, 2 backflips and does alright on what looks to be an C rail, though it could just be the fisheye lens. Anyways... here it is.

Forgot to mention... that was taken from one of the videos in the solid powder series. They are available online for free at http://www.solidpowder.com. They feature snowboarding and skiing.

 

Sorry had to get that plug in...

That's awesome. The second backflip he does, the one with the cross grab, is the cleanest of the video. Sick. Where was that taken?
