I race and I still ski on atomic 916s they aer now going into their fourth season, or third I forget they are amazing skiis! I also have some volkl 724 AX3s coming. I skied the demos last year but couldn't keep them. very very sick ski. and I have a couple pair of head world cup that really dont get used much cause I dont like the way they kick back its inconsistent.

I raced, I might still race, we'll see. I had whatever k2 gave me... patriot, mach... whatever the fuck this years are called. racing is addictive. its a really cool lifestyle... especially since if you really do it it takes a lot of time out of school. but then it inevitably gets gay sometimes. i sucked.

I race, and the rest of these fags who rip it don't matter becasue most of them couldn't carve a turn if their life depended on it. Racing is great for skiing, you'll lean the foundation of how to work an edge, tune a ski, survey terrain, and choose a line. All the things you'll learn in racing, except how to wear a skin tight suit, will benifit you in the rest of your skiing. All good freeskiers, from Seth to Eric were ex-racers and racing programs are where you develop the skills you need to have style and work a ski. If you want to be a jumper go practice gymnasics, but if you want to be a skier get involved with your local USSA program and go have some fun.

i dont race, but some of my friends do. I totally support it. They may not be the best jibbers yet, but at least we can all ski anything on the mountain and carve turns, which is also really fun if your goin super fast. I kinda wish i would have raced, just to get my technique down better, but oh well. As for skis, fischers are real nice if you can flex those beasts, i got to ski them in a 160 for the slalom skis, but i couldnt even flex them, but i am alightweight, yeah i kinda rambled on that one...

Hate to burst the bubble buddy but I teach freestyle and freestyle helps balance soo much. what people need to realize is that all skiing is interchangeable! freestyle teaches balance better than anything, racing teaches mental stuff and pressure controls and regular ski lessons promote timing. its all interchangeable

Go ski some bumps with your knees tied together and then go work on some twisters. Racers rule the mountains always will.

^dude, racing with school is so laid back, if you look like a fool and laugh about it, nobodys gonna care. even if you dont laugh about it nobody will care anyways cause its a school racing circuit. the people that race there just do it to get out and have fun, not to take it too seriously, its what racing is all about for me

i used to race, but i stopped a couple years ago, i got a little tired of doing the same thing over and over. im thankful for what racing did for me, it gave me better balance, taught me how to carve properly. now i can ski anything i want to.
im gonna start racing if i get accepted into cegep this winter

'skiing is pretty much all good no matter what you do'

hit the nail right on the head man, thats what its all about, skiing is skiing no matter how you get down the hill, some kids choose to go fast, some kids choose to hit jumps. its all the same

'I can do any trick I want, i am a super-star. watch and learn'
He then went straight at the jump but right before he hit it he stopped and ran back up to me and kicked me in the shin really hard with his ski boot and touched my bum while i was down. Next while I was writhing in pain in the snow he put on a little pointy dunce hat and red speckled glasses and pranced about singing 'I am cookie fairy! the cookie fairy! Would you like some Chocolate chip cookies? how about some peanut peacan cookies?
