Oh ok. Well I quit moguls this year, saving the knees. I do slope style and half pipe (which i blow at) in USSA. Pretty fun I must say. I'm also going to the open this year, woo.

i compete in slopestyle usually, though im working on pipe this year, and have done big airs in the past (though you don't see them much anymore). i'll also enter the ocassional railjam. it depends, but im willing to through some elboes in a skiercross and huck my meat in a big mountain comp as well.

i was considering starting to compete this year, can you start middle of the year, or is it like any other sport season, also what level do you have to be on, not to take it home just be average, are sevens, and switch 5s enough, or do you have to be throwing 9s and 10s both ways?

I compete mostly because they close the park for it, and I want to ski it. I usually get first place just for showing up because I'm one of two or three girls (Not regulars) at my hill.

it all depends on what circuit or mountain you're at. there are age levels too, so don't worry about skiing against kids that are uber better than you. go for it man! you'll never look back. its soooooooooo much fun!

Ya man comps are fun, you get to watch other peoples runs and sometimes get some free stuff that others dont get. Like free redbulls. And every thing is set up uber nice for the competitors.

I do USASA events sometimes because my boys put on the snowboard ones at the same time. It's fun, but kinda pointless to win gear you probably won't use/sell.

i compete, but certainly don't take it too seriously, i enjoy the pressure situations though, always a good time... this year i'll be organizing events more anyway, so i probably won't be competing as much
