Growing up in Tennessee, it's been sick riding with Zeb over the years! It was a huge honor to direct/edit this film! Thanks Zeb, keep rippin brotha!
I’m 13 riding sugar and it feels different every time after seeing him make it his the reason I joined a free style team
Great job with the video, you really let his personality show.
Its special when you get to see somebody as talented as him enter that flow state. Not alot of people can tap into that when they need it.
Whole heartedly agree.
Many people don't even understand the concept of flow state, let alone being able to feel it and then tap into it on command.
It's the sign of having no fear, no responsibility, no hardship, the core of feeling life!
We all wish Zeb was back in Aspen for 2021 defending the golden knuckles! Great video!
Why isn't he coming back to Aspen?
@Valerie Powell I hope he feels better soon! He is special to watch.
Thanks for the love and support!
Yeah but he’s not because he was a viewer driven entry with no real talent.
He would get mopped by every single pro even the girls because he’s just a fake.
Xgames your as bad as the media playing race cards for viewership
@@neromaniac4658 lmao you real mad huh 😭
this guy seems so humble
I grew up riding sugar mountain in NC. The fact that anyone could make it to this level from that mountain blows my mind.
I say the same thing. He can ride any level of ice and snow lol
i love sugar i’m from nc too
I'm from the north, and I've ridden sugar, yall got some good riders down there.
@@jonnydupuis2041 alot of these small parks are stepping up thier park game alot influenceing alot of crazy kids to go big. We're seeing the blow up of skateparks from the 90s and early 2ks
East coast riders tend to be some of the best. They can ride anything
I love this kids mentality! All gas no brakes. Watching his "autopilot" skill blows my mind, keep killing it!
Yes! This is exactly what competition snowboarding has needed! Ive been tired of the lack of inspired style in competition snowboarding where creative expression is reduced in preference for execution of a narrow set of athletically disciplined tricks. My interest in and respect for snowboarding has always been about expression of creative inspiration, first and foremost. Good to see that given the stage here and, WOW, this guy's creative style is unbelievable! Awesome! Great behind-the-scenes narrative here, too. Cant wait to see more from Zeb!
What a beneficial ambassador to the world for snowboarding; a beautiful person representing a beautiful sport/culture.
ALL GAS NO BRAKES
I said that last week and then almost hit a tree. I put the brakes on after that.
I love it when u see such an amazing dedicated black man proves to the world that no sports is any specific man's sports it's who's ever that fights the hardest n who God blessed with the top skills
This man oozes style. Gives me Yuto Horigome vibes.
What a God. Reminds me of the skater Richie Jackson with his unique style and creativity.
True inspiration 🙏🏾💯
I love this guy
Holy #$@% that trick at 3:05 is nuts!
Damn you just can't hate this dude! So rad!
Real sick. Hell yeah ! Turn it up !! Super sick 🤒!!
why is this showing up like an entire year after it happened?
Nc boys showing out n the snowboarding scene
Ahh the good ole' days pre covid. When you could celebrate with hugs and dog piles with your fellow competitors
@@ISCO36 No this was from last year. Zeb Powell wasn't in X-Games this year. Dusty Henrickson won gold this year
Very cool thanks
He looks like he still would have been smiling and having a great time had he come in last.
You think it makes you though growing up in North Carolina? Try snowboarding in the uk where there’s no resorts.. we have fake slopes which if you crash your skin will come off
such a nice guy!
What a likeable dude
Til he steals your girl
All gas, No brakes.
💜
fuckin super nice guys
Bro this dude is the BruceLee of snowboarding 🏂 like WTH😳😳😳
watz tha song at tha end
It's how this sport was birthed back in our days. All gas no brakes. Riding Snoqualmie to Baker finding anything to turn into a jump only to huck yourself as hard as you could. Getting kicked off other local mountains when nobody even knew what Snowboarding was. This kid embodies the soul of snowboarding. Doing things on the fly not for points but because he loves it. It warms my heart to see someone like this strapped in. Much respect.
Let’s have All Gas No Brakes interview this guy
Another snoqualmie native? Guess we both like riding ice 😂 thanks for being part of the OGs man, these days acres (central) is all boarders lapping the park
It warms my heart too!
dude this guys accent had me geeked. Sounded like a sterotypical surfer dude lmaoo
I can't get over that inhuman fall/kip up. He's like a cat that always find his way to his feet
I’ve had something similar happen before, obviously not dropping in to a massive kicker, but when it happened I literally didn’t know what went down I was just back on my feet. Its such a strange feeling.
That was SO styled out sick it’s like break dancing on snowboard move! 😂
breaks my brain everytime I watch it lol
its called kick up, learn your trick names
YESSSSSS i imagine a lot of people saw that and cant fathom the insane level of reflexes it took
This guy is so fun to watch, you can see he is having a great time while competing. You can't help but be excited with him. Hope you heal soon bro.. we need to see more. Great future ahead. #NewFan
This guy is like the SSX game impersonated
So sick. I just binge watched hours of snowboarding after watching his xgames win. I'm officially addicted.
One of the best humans alive. This video is so sick
Thanks so much bruddah, Zeb is the man!
edited to perfection with the interview in the background.
*sees glasses on the floor*
"just what I needed" - goes on to wear them in his runs and wins gold, what a legend
Dude flows for real gnarly style.
This guy is freaking the essence of flow. Like wow this guy is dope! Can’t wait to see more from him.
stupidly comment
I don't think there is a single human being on any mountain, anywhere in the world more creative or more likeable than Zeb, what a total legend 🔥🔥🔥🔥
marcus kleveland:
Zeb is the first person to make Snowboarding very interesting to watch in years. Great personality also. Justin good editing.
Love this. California has the “pitted, so pitted” guy, North Carolina has Zeb
4:46 blew my mind when it happened. The fact that he didn't roll over and instead just popped up was so sick. Zeb in the zone!
Same here! That was insane!
You can't help but like this guy. He just seems so genuine in his love for snowboarding, and grateful.
If Full Send was a person
2:54 RIP Brother
🤜🏼 😔
Impossible to hate on humility like that!
Way to make the dream a reality, Zeb! 🤩
Seen him a ton riding in carinthia at Mt. Snow over the years. So clean, creative and fun to watch
So, it’s impossible for this dude to actually wipeout is what I got from this
Snowboarding has gone from “big air” to “absolutely insane.” Cheers
love to see fellow north carolinians livin there dreams
How is it out there (besides snowboarding)
@@elijahgavin6706 Western NC, the mountains are super unique, has a really good skate, longboard, and MTB scene, some of the best trout fishing in the US. It's kinda like baby Colorado with shitty snow
i snowboard at cataloochee right now! i had no clue that my favorite snowboarder used to board there 🤙🏻
Easily would have got another god this year. He was missed, needed his creativity
this year they were just sending it past the landing. His knee would not have been well excited to see him more after more recovery
4:45 looks like there are invisible strings attatched that lift him up again. amazing
BUY AMC YOU DOOFENSCHMIRTZ!!!! AMC DESERVES IT THEY’VE BEEN GIVING US A QUALITY MOVIE THEATER EXPERIENCE FOR DECADES!!! LETS GET AMC TO ANOTHER UNIVERSE BABY☄️☄️☄️☄️ BUY AND HOLD
0:57 That Wind Up...?!?
Cataloochee is where I learned to snowboard, and go to college right by his hometown. Zebs such an inspiration for southerners
heck yea i raced there throughout highschool
I’m practicing my jumps tail grabs then soon 180
This guy is amazing!! I just hope he doesn’t hurt himself seriously.
This is some straight up Rodney Mullen of snowboard stuff! Sick style!
You are the definition of snowboarding in its purest form.
Hell yeah. Love the humility - Just have fun and flow with it. Ride for fun in your own style - Don't care about tryhards forcing tricks.
4:44 BEST TRICK! Love it!!!
Lots of snowboarding in NC glad to see someone representing
2:47 That's not a backflip... 3:05 That's a backflip...
2:55 He definitely cried in the car after.
Yooo that’s facts 😂😂
He’s such a laid back humble kid too that makes his gold medal even more deserved man
Like the Kook from the movie North Shore who grew up surfing in a wave pool and made it to the finals of the pipe Masters, But real! Anybody else remember being called a knuckle dragger 20 years ago?!
Well, I have a new favorite snow boarder.
Legend in the making here. So fresh, smooth, yet totally crazy haha. Hope you fly far!!
At 2:23 shoutout to recess skate shop in Boone,NC so crazy !!
Snowboarding needs more people like Zeb
Loving Zeb in the iFit cycling series. What a lovely young man.
i use to snowboard all the at Cat Ski Area and use to see Zeb and all his friends i grew up with al the time!! guys so talented
I love his vibe - "I do it because it's fun and I love doing it" mentality is way cooler than I need to get that gold medal whatever the cost 😊
Ultra Zen meets Super ADHD....Zeb's style is mesmerizing, like he's just falling into the most amazing, highest risk tricks and seems to even surprise himself.
Here's the trick for what you came for 3:04
I remember watching this live and i lost my fkn mind!!!!!! he i so unique and absolutely shreds!
I think a 3 knuckle freestyle course would be just the ticket...
Stellar attitude!! Keep that up and watch a storied career unfold. Oh, mad skills on the board too, by the way!!
A dude in the upper hierarchy of snow boarding not because of diversity quotas but because of skill. This kind of example is lacking in these days of wokeness.
Tf are you talking about lol
Just a humble snowboarder from NC. I didnt even know they had snowboarding in that state. I like his style.
artists cant explain everything
michelangelo?
said : perchè non parli ?
How did this man come from cat and be this damn good?
So inspiring 🏂🏻
yo when u biffed on launch and recovered
that was the most godly thing in all xgames
Mans out here skippin humble fistbumps from fans talkin about “fun got me here” c’mmmmonn man
Zeb is the definition of flow, his runs were just...you know...And shout to this producer, great video!
i said ten years ago the moment you let the brothas in to snowboarding you going to lose the sport just like basketball
Totally love this brother even more now. Reminds me of my riding style, cept I'm not on button bashing mode
He sees heart-shaped glasses on the ground and thinks, "Well of course I have to wear those."
oh, the burton custom. nice board, love using that in the deep snow :D
I love it that he didn't say "gnarly" or some other bullshit lingo once.
Big respect from South Africa (me) 🇿🇦🇿🇦
так то оно конечно всё прикольно, но для каждого спуска использовать для подъема снегоход, это конечно транжирство...
Has anyone tried a backslide to front flip?
The next slope should have a little sharp ramp right before the drop
Every snowboarder knows the sport is 70% mental
