So I'm doing a field assignment for my linguistics class this semester and I'm researching the slang that freestyle skiers use. So, if you could tell me a slang word or words, and then tell me your best definition, and also include where you are from, then you could be totally famous...ya know, with my professor :)

All names will be kept confidential, and it will be turned in and possibly could be on display for people to read just FYI.

All help will be definitely be appreciated!!! Thanks y'all!

Janky- as  in sketchy/squirrely, basically something that is so sketchy it can be compared to huffing shit fumes.

"both my brakes are gone so i am using lift ticket holders to keep my skis from flying down the hill"
That shit is Janky
derived from Jank'm- huffin shit fumes.
