Hey guys, I need your help with something! I want to test out an idea for conducting interviews that popped into my head this afternoon. The concept is simple and has been done elsewhere, but I think Newschoolers can greatly benefit from it. How's it work?

1) You post your question in here
2) I pick 10 questions, and send them to Maude
3) I post the Q&A in the news section
4) You guys post more questions in the comment section
5) Maude picks the questions she wants and answers them in the news article... rinse and repeat!

What do you guys think? If you're down to see how it plays out, feel free to post your questions.

Why do you think there is such a large gap between men's and woman's skiing and what do you think can be done about it?

Do you feel that it is more important to push style, or technicality in women's freestyle skiing right now?

Feel free to upvote questions you like and downvote those you don't!

One last one for me -- What was the best jump you've ever had the chance to session?

Maude,

Let's say you had to film a girl's urban segment for a major movie. Where do you go and who do you bring?

"I pick 10 questions, and send them to Maude"

hmm... I wonder which ones will get picked? Haha, nah I'm sure you'll be fair.


Would you rather have different jumps and courses for womens and mens comps? or all use the same ones?

If you had to stick to one thing for the rest of your skiing career, what would it be, rails or jumps?

Who would you most like to shoot with?(Skiing not porn, not that I'm objecting)

And @OP you should sticky this.

Would you ski a mogul line and backflip a large kicker in just your birthday suit in honour of Shane McConkey's life? (And release footage of it?)

how do you personally deal with the gap between male and female skiers? Do you think it is best to ignore or try to close the gap and do you think it has something to do with the amount of criticism that the mostly male based fans have towards female skiers?

Where do you see womens skiing going in the next few years? Do you think doubles will be the norm or is the progression of style going to be leading the way?


And what is your take on the Olympics? we have heard various arguments from men on both sides but not much in the way of a womans perspective.

Seeing as only a few athletes in freestyle skiing tend to "Make it" and manage to earn enough money - What goals have you set for yourself?

Maude, what tricks are hardest for you and how do you overcome your fear of doing them, if you have any? (I want to hear a females input on this common question)


P.S. Mousseau - I went to type a comment in and a login prompt popped up right in that chat box allowing me to login, which is awesome. Is this feature new or have I just not noticed it yet? Anyways, keep up ze good work.

This is the best part, since there isn't really a way for us users to show which posts we like the most, such as a simple up or down vote.

He's being sarcastic, saying we should just use upvotes and downvotes and pick the 10 most upvoted questions, but that's not the right way.

If there "isn't really a way for us users to show which posts we like the most, such as a simple up or down vote" how do you expect him to pick the top-rated ones. Make up your mind on the complaint.

Also, you're wrong.

Also, I've got one to throw in there.

As skiers we all dream of powder, great lines, and epic adventures. From a professional standpoint, it can't go on forever. What are you dreams of life after skiing stops paying the bills? Or are you not worried about that far in the future right now?
