If a person that knew NOTHING about freestyle and newschool culture and skiing were to ask you what the five most important aspects of your sport was, what would be your answer?
Me and some friends are considering making a documentary on freestyle and would like to find out what would be the most important discussions.

1. Have a forced style.
2. have the 'spinning is more important than style' attitude
3. MUST pretend to be thug, even if your parents own 3 condos at different mountains in different states
4. doing switchups on rails is the most tech skiing can get
5. anything that is new or progression or any sort is known as being "gay"

not making stupid documentaries about skiing in the first place cause most of the reasons above are either funny commentary (bitching, talking about bc instead of doing) or cheezy (challenging yourself)

I'll acctually answer seriously because I think a good documentary on skiing would be sick.
1. Style, in the air, on rails, on the hill, it defines us as skiers
2. Freedom, I think that the reason we all ski is of course fun but its the freedom of doing what you want and how you want that makes it so fun
3. Progression, everyday it is happeneing to every skier on the hill. Just by being there they are improving their skiing in some way, even if they don't know it.
4. Friendship, The crazy shit that can go down on the hill will make existing friends better friends and allow strangers to meet each other doing the thing they love.
5. Patience, It is something needed to ski, and something learned while skiing. Whether waiting for the "sickest rail in the park," or waiting for the conditions in the backcountry to be safe, or whatever it is, patience is vital to skiing.
I hope this helped.

^I'm not saying that there should not be documentaries on skiing, but i just think asking us the five most important things is kinda dumb because u know ur gonna get many bs answers and i think the bottom line is fun, cause when it comes down to it if your not skiing for fun, then why the fuck are you doing it... and as far as style goes, come on if u try to tackle that issue you are fucked because everyone will bitch at you for some reason
