Have you tried using a Translation-ator 3000?
I hear they work well...
(PS I'm too lazy to do it myself)

It's just 'skiing park' bro.

All the parks are called snow parks.
it's just like english yeah, they will understand you if you say, 'salut, vous ski le park?' or just, 'hey bro, you ski park?'

It really isn't something to worry about. They probably speak have a better understanding of the language than most of us anyway...
