jib is a code word for methamphetamine according to a commercial on tv

A guy I know does film, and he puts a camera on the end of a weighted metal pole and is able to scan and record things like concerts etc... But it's called a jib, and that's correct, I think.

Andreas Håtveit self said that "jibbing" is a stupid word for skiing, because jibbing is a term in sailing, and I'm pretty sure the sailers had the copyright on the word before us. (Andreas Håtveit is perfect btw, and what he says should be correct, and we should behave after what he has said)

I think jib is a common work in all sports where you can rail slide. And sketchy is not just a skiing-only word. Its been around a long ass time but just started regaining popularity a few years ago. People stopped saying gnarly for a few years, but its back. I think we bring back "boss".

don't automatically assume that just because skiers say something that they came up with it.
people said jib in the context we use it before skiers started using it.

I had a friend who was a girl in High School that didn't ski but thought that it was called "jabbing" so she would say, "are you going jabbing tonight"?

And what the hell is wrong with that Asian country called Japan? Are they seriously not understanding that skiers used the word for a grab long before them? Did they take it from us on purpose !???
