I'm pretty sure that's fucking retarded. None of that is relevant. It's saying I can hit XL features, i.e. 100 ft. jumps, 20 ft. wall rides, but I can't sw up yet?

I think you should change your number 18...To compete you don't have to be able to double or do every trick both ways...as long as your consistent, you can do any kind of competition and do well

Needs to be multiple scales for different types of skiing and then maybe a composite score.

So because I prefer the big mountain terrain- and can truly hold my own on the bigger features in the back country- but I only ski park when there's no snow on the mountain.... That makes me a 5/20 on a skill scale. Yeah fuck this. Try again.... actually.... don't.

3 and 4... how is not being able to ski park better than hitting boxes and jumps..?

anywho, I'm all good up until 18. minus spinning both ways. But I'm a 20 on my personal scale- the one that says 20= going out and having as much damn fun on my skis as I possibly can and not worrying about rating my skiing.

no offense, but this rating system is horrid. If anything, there should be a sundry list of check boxes with various skills and attributes that add to a total score and then that score has a range indicating the type of park skier you are.
