Alright everyone I recently read skeeze magazine and learned how to to the Texas Tuck. This is when you want to have some fun and show off(lol) to the lift. First find a spot right underneath the busiest lift on the mountain. Start to ski in a snowplow( that thing you learned when starting to ski). Then make it as big as possible while bending over into a "tuck" (hint Bonus Points if you tuck your poles in a wierd way) This is also good when hitting a kicker to get people to think your bad. Then just throw down a 10 and they'll know, you were really doing the Texas Tuck.

hes talking about when you see those nooobs on the mountain and they are tucked up like a rcer but their legs are spread wide and are snow plowing sort of. And it would be really funny to do that up to a jump than 9 it or something

he means a 10.

Oh and step 1 for the Texas Tuck is to throw out all sense of self respect and style.

haha I love having gaper steeze to get people to look at you funny, and then throw down something decent off a jump. I really really want to get a "blind skier" bib and a guide bib for one of my buddies, then go through the park. It would make a killer video segment.

i love that.

pod racing is awesome shit, and it can throw up ridiculous amounts of snow behind you if done properly.

i know, it's quite fun sometimes, but not when their parents are bitching at you to teach them how to turn
