Replying to Can having no racing background mean I'm not a good freeskier?

I've been skiing for approximately 4 years, and I'm hearing that a lot of members had some racing background. This kinda makes me nervous, as they always tout it as improving their skiing ability overall. So, as the title says,is having no racing background mean I'm not a good freeskier?

Is there any way to make up for this? I don't wanna be grouped in with those excellent park rats that can't ski for crap outside the park!
