Eh she's the product of stupid ass parents thinking she's the next Shaun White. She'll turn 20 discover coke and end up doing donkey shows in Tijuana.

Not bitter just a realist she's not that good and a product of parents forcing what they wanted on her. Every year there's some kid younger that's just as cute and whose parents think they're the next big thing. They're not going to make it most end up burnt out and hating snowboarding.

^^ You know, I just had a friend come back from Thailand, and he told me that the pingpong ball show...the balls dont get shot across the room like the pretend they do in TV. My world kinda came crashing down around me when he told me this.

Simple solution ride more that shit isn't that hard to do. Hitting a 10 foot jump and opening up and spinning a no grab 3 is pretty ugly honestly.

Are you really nit picking the technical ability of a 9 year old?
To say she's being forced is a bit drastic. Encouraged maybe.. but I didn't get the feeling that anyone was standing behind the camera man threatening her to lie about how much she enjoyed herself. Just because you turned 20 and discovered coke doesn't mean you have to wish the same fate on every upcoming rider you feel is going to one day out do you.

not that i have been drinking the haterade much or anything, but i see little kids at Bear the same age pulling this stuff off much larger things. I'm just saying she has kinda been sensationalized.
If she could push female boarding past *girl does a sketchy no grab 720 & wins gold medal* then maybe she would be worth a lot more attention.

I wish I could ride as good as her when I was 9. I think I was still sitting on a the swings with a finger up my nose. If she keeps progressing and cleans up her technique, she'll no doubt go pro. Female slopestyle always needs new blood pushing harder tricks. Good for her.
