What is your favorite; pow, rails, jumps, or pipe. 

all most everyone is gonna say pow, so put pow and pic one of the others.

Nothing can beat the feeling of skiing pow....

Although I do enjoy jumps as well, rails not so much, probably because I suck at them.

the absolute freedom of doing what what I want. How no matter what it will cheer me up, and just makes me forget about my problems just for a few precious hours. Can't really explain its just really surreal

Its also fun if you have a boarder friend:

"His is a 160. I use 179's. On good days I do 186's."

ima have to say one day it was snowing maaaaad fucking hard and we were skiing in the trees and we saw this po-dunk jump, but we realised it could be built up, have a smooth in-run and be a massive jump with a nice powder landing. regular folk wouldnt see this but it shined right through to us. so we built this little bump some kids built into this monster jump. than the greatest moment was standing atop the in-run and watching a kid boost the biggest 5 i have ever seen in real life (non-park jump) i dont know, it was just mad legit.                 im sure any situation like that would be my favorite part of skiing. or anytime the collins brothers hit up bad news from the top at alta.



besides getting my balls tickled by watching people do there thing, shredding a line that makes you wanna puke when your ontop is always nice.

1. Pow
2. Jumps
3. Rails
But my favorite part of skiing is just tricking it up and having fun wherever you happen to be at the moment.
