Okay, heather is legitimately a great skier, way more impressive than current female pipe skiers but...

I'm sick of all this talk about wax and equipment being what is gonna make freestyle chicks go faster and bigger. It is strength and balls that makes the dudes go like 50% faster, not some special wax. Just like chicks in the pipe who wax their skis incessantly despite the fact that a 15 year old boy who weighs the same amount can go 10 feet higher on unwaxed skis because of his line choice, ability and not scrubbing speed.

I've heard that Joffrey doesn't even let the wax tech touch his skis, and that dude goes huge.
