Rockin' Around The idX Tree

The Top Cheers of the Year on idX

Everyone has their own way of getting into the holiday spirit. Whether it's going Christmas caroling, listening to holiday music starting after Halloween, or streaming the Hallmark Channel next to MAGMA 3 or Knights of the Brown Table 24/7, nothing gets us more pumped up than the giving spirit.

As we give thanks to Ullr, what better way to get into the giving spirit than to recognize the people behind the camera, on the mountain, or on the chair and identify the top yews, cheers, and dog barks from the idX community.

Don't Tell Your Parents You Said This

Given that we are the most G rated platform after launching Smoke Stats and giving our Financial Outlook on idX, we need to recognize the homies that give unbridled joy. Lets rank em'
‍

5. *wake up* a new Skian clip just dropped of a Lip On to a proper Quad Kink‍

4. A homies reaction to a Frontslide to Switch on a DFD from cautioussmelt9

‍3. Someone witnessing a 2F2 for the first time from conordavis

‍2. Another first witness of a Superfed from gaffer

‍1. Whoever yelled "stroke that thing cuzzo" after josh_hill launched onto a tube

An Airing of "Yews"

Despite our demons telling us to air a list of grievances against Mailchimp for logging us out and deleting 2 hours of progress on this email (sorry East Coast), we decided to air our "Yews" for the people giving unreal commentary on the mountain. In no particular order:

First off, we have str222's filmer giving an almost rap ad lib behind a 180

Great way to start off

I also had the same reaction with sixinchswede launching a backflip at Baker

Could you have imagined what misfit_skier's filmer would have said to that

‍Combine that with cravingcolt888's filmer

‍And I think we create a Netflix Documentary witnessing drew.flores Flat 450 out of a rail

‍Lets not forget celebrating a Dub Backie from jamison.tidwell

‍A switch backie from dave_can_do_it

‍And a send like no other from gaffer filmed by novybbg

‍Finally, recognize the peanut gallery after n8's backie line, tyler-nowak's front 3, the Lip On 270 Out from jusluca, or official_no_poles "Switch 7"

Harlaut's Disciples

Wu Tang is for the Children and so are dog barks before/after a 2p4 from official_no_poles or the first backslide b2 out from blendbuster2.

The Grinch Who Stole Steeze

Seen on idX, landing a trick might just be....strictly business.

Sometimes it's described with straight silence from the G jamison.tidwell after sending it 15 feet into the air off a cannon rail to Misty 4 out.

Other times it's described from Matej Svancer giving the coldest stare to the camera man after a Left 180 On 50-50 Pretz 1 Out.

Had to let them know who stole the steeze

idX Devology

We've released an update making auto play as fastest as we can figure out, fixing search, and then finally! fixing the For You page on idX. It's dependent upon your bag of tricks, preferences in your profile (skier or snowboarder), and the most important thing, the idX community.

Stay tuned for this next week and let us know if anyone has any guesses what this entails:
