Whats the name of the trick/ or pose in wich you plant your tips vertical in the snow, you sit with your but on your boots and you balance on your ski poles and your tips ?

its realy cool to do and everyone is like WHOAH when you do this while waiting at to bottom of the slope ...

But, whats this trick called ???

well if it ain't got a name yet, which i doubt, how could i call it ?


for ppl still not visualizin it, you stand still with your ski tips planted vertical in the ground, your skis are parallel your knee is bent 90° in such way that your upper body is parallel to your skis, thus vertical, your poles are planted slightly forward to keep your balance...

its isnt a real ski-trick or so, becuz you ain't doin it while youre actually skiing, but its really fun to do and even more fun to see other people look at you with a face thats saying... WTF !
