Another attempt to classify skiers. Last one had issues with people being a 12 but not 10 or 11. This one is simple, just add up the points to get your score

Jumps:
1 point for each spin, 2 if you can do them switch

180-1260
front flip/backflip

add 1 point to each trick if off axis, 2 to each trick if double

1 point for each grab you know
safety
mute
tail
japan
blunt
octo
truck


Rails:
1 point for each trick on boxes, 2 points for each trick on rails (and boxes)

straight slide
270 off
270 on
450 off
450 on
switch ups
630 off

add 2 points for oozing style


All Mountain:
1 point for each

ski moguls smoothly
carve a turn
Skied in a race
Ski black diamonds
Ski chutes

1 point for each, 2 if you can spin off them
Cliff drop 1-10'
Cliff drop 20'
Cliff drop 30'+



Total from all categories = skill#

I can't control what people post. I just made a better scale than the one before. However, I now default to the upgraded skill scale 4.0.

Who cares about this! this sport is about creativity and doing whatever you want. thats the beauty of it. You can't make a formula for the best skier. Its as simple as who can land, as well as making it look good, or strange, or creative, and above all, have fun. This is not mogul skiing, and I would never want it to be.

So if I spin off a 2 foot cliff I'm a better skier than dropping a gnarly 50 footer? I don't understand. It's like G.N.A.R. But less funny

The great thing about skiing is that your skill level is fairly subjective, and it works. Why would you try to change it?

why do we need to ski in a fucking race to be good? and if you cant ski a black diamond, well, you need to get your ass out of the park!
