50 minutes of ground tricks?! I got bored after just 1 minute

Jesus, I can hardly believe those are snowboards. Hope these guys like doing nothing but butter-tricks, because you ain't going no where else on the mountain riding spaghetti shit like that.

Mount Fuji in the background looks like fun though

We have a guy at Breck that puts them to shame. His nickname is Butters and he lives in South Park. Yes the character is named after him.

Flat ground tricks are fun to do while riding on the cat track.....defanitly wouldnt want to watch a movie on them, that would be just too boring.

Ooo girly cat track butters whoopee. Let's see some manly aggressive at speed buttering. (not that I can)

Too... much... butter...

I didn't think it was possible during a video about snowboarding but I got bored also...

What bugs me about these types of videos is the excessive cutting. You pretty much never get to actually see anyone actually do an actual trick. Four or five cuts in a single MFM butter, you kind of wonder how many takes that took.

i think these are pretty sick

Ground work is really popular in Japan because the snowboarding scene is much more closely tied to the street skating scene. Here, vert freestyle across 3 disciplines (BMX, skate, Inline skating) has been the heavy emphasis for years before freestyle snowboarding really kind of took off and went full on mainstream in the late 90's. Street comps where never given the same level of precedence or attention. So when snowboarding did catch on, naturally it went the same way (vert) eventually maturing the slopestyle scene too.

The result street snowboarding and consequently, buttering, isn't nearly as popular. If you ask me, the Japanese area bit too obssessed with ground work. I have a friend who lived in Japan and became obssessed with their culture - a real otaku or whatever they call themselves - and I constantly am forced to watch the newest buttering edit. I'm also stuck buttering the greens half the day, too. Boring.
