The 4 main people who inveted freesking are J.P.Auclair, JF Cusson, Iannick B., and Mike Nick. These were not the guys who were first intorduced into hucking cliffs, doing tricks, and pow skiing like glen plake and jonny decesare. They started fresh on there local snowboard park, poaching and doing the only tricks invented such as daffys, twisters, and back scratchers. They invented freesking before pipes were made and the first rail was a log only snowboarders could do. These people would build a little booter on side of the trail that would toss you ten feet, and session it for hours. This is also before people filmed and made movies for park skiers, not pow. To show you how far back, it wasn't until years later that freesking blew up and mike nick and iannick b. switched to "skiboarding".

First of all there is a big difference between freeskiing and newschool skiing. And this thread should be deleted. There is waaay too much crap being thrown around. Leave the history of the sport to the guys who have been around for a while. And by that I mean the guys involved for like 15 years. So basically no one on this site.
