i think so too, and urban lines. for example, urban bomd drop, to urban booter, to urban rail, to stall, or something like that.

yeah i really want to see skiing go that way, it is amazing to watch a snownoard movie and see them doing 7s and 9s off cliffs, There needs to be more of that in ski movies,
As for urban booters, yeah there will be some this year, last year we built a 40 fter on a golf course lol, its behind my friends house so we spent a weekend shaping it and hit it the whole week. We have aot of urban tree stalls and wallrides that we plan to hit this winter, gunna be sick

I dont know if this has been done before, but couldnt you put loads of snow on a set of stairs to make a landing?? I know it might hurt like hell if you fell, but it could work.

Fuckin Ice Coasters, pull the ice outta your ass and wake up. Skiing is headed more toward natural features. At my mountain we don't have a terrain park so we turn to natural features and build jumps in the backcountry. And huck cliffs.
