meggles Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 So..I'm sure those of you on NS know that Sean Jordan and Jon Brogan both are legit competitors for this year's Superunknown contest held by Level 1. http://www.newschoolers.com/web/forums/rea...read_id/346652/ A lot of people seem to be thinking Brogan's gonna take it.. Thoughts? He really deserves it. Kid slaays it and he doesn't get much recognition for it. Well, not until now... It'd be soo sick to see a local kid winning that. It was really sick that Wallisch won since he was from PA..but this is even more local. Brogan really IS "superunknown"..most of the other guys trying to win it aren't exactly "nobodies".

Papasteeze Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Jon is very unknown and fits the bill, he should win just because of his unique style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meggles Posted February 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Jon is very unknown and fits the bill, he should win just because of his unique style. I really can't think of anyone with a more unique style. And I swear to god I've never seen him with his legs more than an inch apart unless he's in the air.

stbgskibum247 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Jon Brogan is the real deal!!! That kid showed up at my house preseason w/ a bunch of boulder kids to hit a rail w/ ice shavings we got. It was a semi-ghetto single barrel that was over waist high and Jon was throwing a whole array of tricks from super smooth spins on and off to perfectly comfortable and clean switch ups. I've never personally seen somebody lock onto a rail so well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoreyCaPWN Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 here is a vid of Brogan i found on youtube http://youtube.com/watch?v=4roZUtRDofY if you saw him now, you'd think it was a different kid. not saying the video is bad in anyway at all, but he's got soooo much better since this. its like a year or two old.

librider Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Jon's edit is sooooooooooooo sick. He is such a legit rail skiier. Oh anyone know what song was used in his edit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
librider Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Listen to Your Heart by Roxette..was sampled but the song is Listen to Ur Heart by Sean Young.. I dont think so.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
method9455 Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Those are all sick I watched most of them all the way through, there where just 2 songs I couldn't take. It is cool to see skiers from all over I see so much easy coast skiing you forget what Mammoth/Breck look like aside from pros riding them. Also a lot of representation from the area, 3 Big Boulder cuts, 2 Mountain Creek, 1 with Blue, the only other multiple ones where Mount Snow and a Quebec mountain.

Papasteeze Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Sorry Bro.......................gan I had to do it! so funny to see the debate on NS.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justo8484 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Sorry Bro.......................gan I had to do it! so funny to see the debate on NS.. wasnt he at salomon jib academy riding for salomon...? i thought brogan's edit was more fun to watch, and his style is arguably much better than anyone else in the contest, but martini's got him beat on difficulty in the urban department for sure. i'll attribute that to the fact that it doesnt snow in PA, and there arent really any good handrails around here at all.

Dan- Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) Yeah regardless if martini is known or not. The kid is good. Edited March 18, 2008 by Dan- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papasteeze Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 wasnt he at salomon jib academy riding for salomon...? yeah martini was/has been traveling with them. ON top of that he placed like fourth in his heat at THe USFO - i don't remember how he did in the finals. But yes martini looks to have a full hook up with salomon, way more so than wallisch last year. Martini is a much better skier by far. NO OFFENSE JON! However Jon's style is unique and worthy of a berman segment. IMO Of course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

method9455 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) Yea all the PA riders suffered from a lack of urban rails but how many days a year do we have an opportunity for that? Not many. *Skiers not riders sorry Edited March 18, 2008 by Method9455 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
