    Glad to see you give some respect to the kooks and casuals. Not all of us were lucky enough to live near snow and do this regularly throughout childhood. Personally, I grew up in Louisiana and played SSX Tricky in Middle School (would replay 'Untracked' on repeat for hours) and took a few vacations every few years or so before upending my life to move closer to mountains.

      To be fair, to the majority of the population... all snowboarders are Kooks, we're discriminating against ourselves. Someone call the Office of Civil Rights.

    I get the brand theory of "Core" snowboarding, but Russell Winfield and the dudes from the Bomb Hole had a better take. Russell explained that Core was originally short for Hardcore, similar to Gnar being short for Gnarly. Russell went on to explain that because snowboarding is so broad, there are many different ways you can be a "Core" snowboarder depending on how "Hardcore" or essentially devoted you are. Being one of the first people in the lot every weekend could make you core, hiking jumps in the park or backcountry, or competing in any of the disciplines (boardercross, pipe, slopestyle, etc.) could all make you a "core" snowboarder. The brand theory is pretty one-dimensional and somewhat exclusionary to freestyle snowboarding. Now, I'm a freestyle rider and procurer of all the "core" brands, and I agree that certain brands have no place in snowboarding for many reasons. However, purchasing certain brands does not make you any more or less of a snowboarder; your snowboarding does. The point Russell and the dudes on the Bomb Hole were making was that your "Core Score" should be more measured by the amount of effort, dedication, and skill put towards your riding versus your fashion and gear choices. If you put more effort into your gear and fashion than your riding, it will show, and to me, that's pretty kooky/jerry...IMHO. Similarly, if you can absolutely slay and have great style (style includes tricks and clothes, but is less about brands and just how it looks) and board control, I really couldn't care less about what brands you choose at the end of the day.

      Thank you for leaving the most insightful comment I've ever received. I understand there are different definitions of core and making a video like this using the "Hard Core" definition would probably be less entertaining, but it is something that I could talk about in a future video...
      Brand theory is a very superficial way to look at snowboarding because at the end of the day your snowboarding is always more important than how you look. "Purchasing certain brands does not make you any more or less of a snowboarder; your snowboarding does." TRUE
      "Your "Core Score" should be more measured by the amount of effort, dedication, and skill put towards your riding versus your fashion and gear choices." True.
      To elaborate on this point, nothing is kookier than buying over $1,000 worth of snowboard gear and not being able to shred.
      This video was primarily made for entertainment purposes and maybe to teach some people some fun facts. At the end of the day snowboarding is not that deep and the only reason it exists is because we all think it is fun.
      Thanks for the comment dawg!

      @@DaytonHammel Thanks for the great response. The video was excellent and well-articulated; I just wanted people to see it from another perspective as well. I'd argue snowboarding is pretty deep. It got me through some rough times. When people I thought would be there weren't, my board, the resorts, snow, and snowboard community were and always kept me level-headed and on track (life goals). Snowboarding was my outlet when I gave up my social life and partying to go to graduate school. It's connected me with both my kids to a greater level, and it is somewhat therapeutic. There's nothing more connecting to nature to me than tree runs on a deep pow day at Brighton or in British Columbia. When I'm riding, just for those few hours each day, all the stress of life goes away; I get to enjoy myself, my friends, nature, and a sport I truly love. I grew up skating in the 90s and will be 40 this year. Snowboarding has kept me youthful, active, and in touch with my inner adolescent. It's also become a conduit for travel and bonding for myself, my family, and my closest friends. The actual snowboarding is excellent, but spending time planning trips, talking about the season over the summer at the beach, and traveling to new destinations (for snowboarding trips) are just as, if not more, fun. Snowboarding lets me express myself in a way no other sport or hobby could, and I'd say that's pretty deep, even if we are sliding down the mountain on a piece of wood :)

      But if you're unknowingly supporting kook shit, you probably are because your favorite kook influencer said it was clever and new.
      You can be a decent rider and a kook at the same time. That occurs when you aren't aware of kooks and kooky things. And when that happens, you need to have an apiphiny, and then you need redemption.

    • @Red1676
      @Red1676 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      How i see it, there is a difference between people that snowboard and people who are snowboarders. People can be kooks that snowboard and there can be kooks who are snowboarders. How i see as being core is being out as many days as you can, understand the culture of snowboarding even back to where it started, be able to go to a ski hill with your homies to progress from, and just overall have fun. People mistake core with brand research or understanding of snowboard technology. You get to that point from being a core snowboarder, but you dont need to be core to understand where that research comes from. The issue is the noncore snowboarders don't have a friend base that is core, so they end up being the target consumer from kook companies when they try to do research on snowboard gear. Then you also end up with bad representation of what snowboarding is with the kook shit like social media, scummy kook companies, and even video games like riders republic. Like I see more and more kooks excited about snowboarding because it means they get the rave club shit raves at resorts. Those people are pure kook, if you highlights is that shit, youre not a snowboarder. If getting more days out mean going to grassroots hill, hiking backcountry, or seshing a street spot, you are a snowboarder. Not talking shit about resort locals either, it's more just about getting out to snowboard as much as you possibly can. The kook companies don't target the core audience, they know they will have more issues targeting core snowboarders because their products are so shitty that it's too much of a gamble when their target audience won't be as abusive. It's like the kid buying a beginner targeted board, it's only designed for them to learn on, be beaten up, and learn what type of snowboarding they want to do.

    You forgot snowboarding instructors. Are we kook? You know what they say: "if you can't, you teach" lol. Yeah, definitely I think I have a foot on the kook side 😂.
    Ironically, I was super kook when I was young, because I thought that wearing baggy pants with my whole ass completely out, bandanas hanging off my studded belt, and sleeveless tshirts at freezing cold weather made me as core as a Forum 8 lol. But I was young and trying to imitate your idols is cool I guess, just like in any other parcel/hobby.
    Then I travelled to the Alps and saw people dressed as the average jerry, with helmets when helmets were not cool (yeah, idiotic but it was like that) sending switch 9s on a 18 meters big jump, when I was not spinning in 12 meters jumps, and I remember thinking to myself, "you are fkg ridiculous!" 😂. A humbling and maturing moment I guess.

      Jeremy Jones is core and has been around forever. He was also in the forum video I showed with JP Walker. I think supporting a snowboarder owned company is always core, especially with a legend like Mr. Jones.
      To answer your 2nd question I was saying powder riding and "powder" movies (freeriding, Backcountry movies) are core. If you meant P.O.W as in Protect our Winters, I don't think they are core to snowboarding but they may be important. I don't really know what their money goes too. It seems difficult to run a charity for climate change. Like what are they doing with the money and how can it possibly have a positive change for the climate. It may be good, it would be fun to research.

So the position they give you or offer you is something completely far away from Park crew like being a lifty or running the inner tube program for the weak ass kids that parents bring up for the day....

    Aside from the cringey stuff they might do on social media, people supposedly enjoy the gear they get from Dope and Montec. It seems to be entry level gear, (300 for a jacket) and people can always upgrade later if they decide to do so. I dont get the hate, not everyone can afford to drop more than a grand for full gear or wants to wait to get used or discounted gear at the end of the season. Just comes off pretentious imo, unless theres brands at that price point I dont know about. Even then its all preference in the end, why give a shit what others wear to the park. What am I missing here?

      Based. I don't like their marketing. Don't have anything against people that wear dope (obviously).
      I usually just wear a sweatshirt and my dad's old ski pants. So I know how hard it is to keep snowboarding affordable (I am a broke college student) Also I live in South East Wyoming, probably one of the coldest and windiest place to snowboard in the whole country and most of the time I can get away with 2 long sleeve Ts and a sweatshirt. So the idea that u need to drop 1k on outerwear is stupid.
      But I think most people think dope is objectively uncool, which is fair.

      Completely understandable, the marketign does come off as if the brand is just in it for the money atm, poserlike (like people wearing Thrasher) so I do understand in regards to that. But I feel like it does fill a untapped marketspace of new people to the sport. And yeah their name is definitely stupid lol, but it works, brings in the young people for sure. Regardless I appreciate an actual response and not just hating cause someone had a rebuttal. @@DaytonHammel
