Pretty neat video here of a young guy commentating the 1999 Winter X Games competition at Crested Butte, CO. Boy, we sure have come a looooooooooooong way…
This video is chock-full of all the late-90s ski nostalgia you could ever want. Candide Thovex makes a cameo as a spry 16-years-old, Jonny Moseley is rocking some super thin non-center-mounted mogul skis, the lip looks terrible, the Salomon 1080s are just starting to take the ski industry by storm, and lacing a switch 720 was enough to secure the gold!
I love how this kid can appreciate what the guys were doing back in the 90s and their influence on the sport today. Such a cool mix of generations!
