Never hit one and never will.

I feel like they would hurt my nuts.

That is because it is meant for drainage and has no place on the ski hill....except for summer drainage.

i agree we just got some corrugated pipes 2 years ago and they are so fun. the large 2- 2 1/2 diameter ones are a little too big gap wise but still fun to hear that sound!

But in all reality I feel like they aren't even that fun. Pole jibs/Lift Towers are killer though.

I've never caught an edge and eaten it. I have ejected a ski, but that's because my DINs suck major balls. Speed is your friend. It's easier than mailboxes.

Corri pipes are a staple of uk fridge skiing. Down corris are the best. Learnt. My first front 2 out on one. Up corris are the worst thing ever unless you are a snowboarder.

My 50-year old dad can grease a 20 foot corrugated pipe. It's not that tough. My dad is sick though...

Pretty much do it like normal. Carrying a little more speed than you would for a regular rail and just be as flat as possible woth your skis on the tube with possibly a little weight shifted toward the uphill edges. Other than that just confidence that you'll slide and the right amount of speed and you cant go wrong.

Yeah I remember the first time I hit one I had no idea what to expect so I just went for it and hit it like I would a sausage tube and, well, I'm still here today, aren't I? No but from there I just adjusted a thing or two, then I learned to love em

Just dont catch your front edges and you'll be fine. It should look like this.

its a snowboarders feature, stuff fun to hit sometimes, if your hitting it longwayz on skis then you just gotta get the right lean and angle.
