Sometimes a question arises on these forums and on the hills:

"What IS real skiing?"

Real Skifi is one of the most prominent chapters in the newschool movement right now. Through these webisodes, you can see absolutely terrifying amounts of creativity when it comes to urban environments, local ski venues and crafting tools to aid them in the process.

These guys will whisk you off into summer, leaving you with a terrific smile on your face and the knowledge of what it really means to ski.

Episode 1

Episode 3

So much respect to the whole crew and can't wait for next season's offerings!

Running start to urban rail.
One ski urban rail.
20ft. cliff to flat 3 in. of snow.
Grinding bottom half of rollercoaster rail. I have only dreamed of doing that in Jibbin.

Fuck me. SOMEBODY PAY THESE MEN.
