its awesome when you land switch and your tails catch and then u double eject and your skis are sticking straight up in the air!

Just a tip, you shouldnt do that with your racing skis, my friend did that and he snapped one of his skis in half

There's no awesome pipe for me to ski on my hill, there's this really lame small thing that on a lot of days has 45 deg. walls, and a freakin' superpipe. another area a pipe but half the seasin it's not there.
