again the women who ski- some are talented, most aren't! all you have to do to make it is be able to throw a 3 and grind a rail and be pretty, and be willing to sell yourself out for it!

Maybe you should say that when you can out ski Ingrid Backstrom and Sarah Burke. Until then, you should respect them for being good at what they do, and support what they're doing for women in skiing.

uh, more like throw a seven with a good grab, do a 270 on to a rail natural and unnatural, cork 5s in pipe, and be pretty hot...
3s and rails? you must be pretty ignorant if you think that's all it takes.

^ sarah burke, check it out in whiteshine. and to contribut to the 3's and grind a rail stereotype, the biggest trick marie martinod did in both her segments in Whiteshine AND Shanghai 6 was a mute 3 and and grinding a flat down, pretty poopy if u ask me. but other than that sarah burke owns 7s in the pipe so props to her

well thats onto a box and everyone can 270 onto a box. I think the most impressive thing on a rail that i have seen from a girl was michelle parker's nasty urban double kink.
