    HOJI: the 2016 version of pinning it

    The Hoj remains on fire. I know he has some solid fans here, so here's his personal MSP edit from Ruin and Rose for your viewing pleasure.

    So sick. He doesn't seem to be slowing down in the least.

    That was fucking awesome... it's a good thing there is no snow out there yet, or I would be tempted to go and try to do something my body can no longer deliver....

    Full-on rip! Hopefully this video settles BP Pow's dilemma in Tech Talk

    That track is a nice throwback to Stumpy's Fistful of Moguls featuring the Art of Noise:

    That guy skis better in reality than I dream about doing it.

    Absolutely killing it. I ski on 4frnt ehp's in a 186 most of the time. Good to see where the inspiration came from.

    Can't decide which was more impressive: throwing a cork-7 on the Whistler jump on pow skis and tech bindings, or casually wiping his goggles mid-air on a pillow line.

    He does even the craziest stuff so casually you sometimes don't realize how gnarly it all is.

    This is how I imagine I look when I'm skiing on my OG Renegades. But in reality, my skiing style more closely matches my skiing gear: dirty, minimally effective and trying way too hard to be something its not.

    Loved that pillow traverse. Super creative and probably hard to capture just right

    kinda looks like he gave it a test run, and skied it after the next snowfall?

    Yeah, looked that way. Probably found a better way to film it? Or needed a track to keep speed? Looked pretty mellow (but cool)

    Impressive as all hell, but his skiing style has changed a lot as he has aged, the slower reflexes are what stands out most starkly to me.

    I guess we're all inching closer to the grave by the minute, and the guy is one of my favorite skiers to watch, but definitely not the same as a few years ago.
