Does it help it or make it worse? For me it makes it worse. Discuss

So if you could only spin up to 180 you can do an 1800 after smoking? Sounds like some good shit

makes me more afraid of features I'm normally afraid of, but makes me better at rails, worse at jumps

You need to get the right type of weed to have nervy and shit. There's indica and sativa you want the proper one or you will get lazy and shit

Makes cruising through the mountain better for me and more enjoyable. But if i want to practice new tricks or do some difficult off piste runs i think that it doesn't help.

It makes me better in some ways and worse in others. Physically i lose a lot of the finer muscle control that goes into spinning, balancing on rails, and skiing anything that takes precision. But mentally i become a much more happy and upbeat person, and i just decide that everything is fun and forget a lot of the risks. When I ski high i "flow" alot better, and i hardly ever stop and think. I love it if im skiing cliffs or trying to to just have fun in the park, but if I really want to push myself, it hurts my skiing.

once I smoked two weeds and skied on that snow bro.


No but seriously when it's really cloudy conditions smoking is fucking epic. All the elements look black and grey except for the people your skiing with.

As for what it does for my skiing ability I agree that you tend to flow better but like doing big spins and new tricks I would rather say fairly sober. Who ever said skiing fast while blazed, I agree it's so much fun.

I used to smoke weed all the time..
I would wake up in the morning, light a doob, eat breakfast and then go on the hill, by the time I was on the hill I had sobered up alright and went steraight to freeway to get the scary/big tricks done with.
Then at around 1:30 I would spark another doobie and then ride parklane casually for the rest of the day.
I could not smoke a joint and then send big tricks of big jumps right away.
weed definatley messes with my athletic abilities.
But I could still cruise a park and do little tricks and when I did I felt like everytrick was perfect.
hell it probably was. the weed told me when to start the rotation, where to look, when to stop, how to afterbang.

I like to get a few warm up runs then blaze.. depends on the bud to how it is going to effect my skiing. Being on the east coast I have to smoke what is available. If I had a choice i would go sativa..

skiing powder while baked with good music is so liberating and absolutely one of the greatest things I have experienced so far. I am however going on 3 years completely clean from everything except caffeine and sugar...

You guys should rethink your lives. My brother overdosed on weed. You don't want to end up like him.

He was invited by the "cool kids" to hang out at some kids house whose liberal parents had left for the weekend.

My brother, always a moral and thoughtful individual, wanted to attend because it was one of those massive house parties that he'd never been to.

Well, as was later recalled by some of his friends at the party, he was pressured into smoking marijuana. He ended up smoking the entire pack of marijuana cigarettes.

Not long after he went into convulsions and started foaming at the mouth. The people at the party held back calling 9/11 for almost 10 minutes.

When the paramedics finally arrived they could do nothing to save him.

The autopsy revealed he had 3 times the lethal dosage of blood in his THC.

But I'm sure everyone here will deny my story and the fact that my brother died after smoking that illegal narcotic.

You know how you see a big inverted spin and can't visualize it in your head? In order to learn it you get high as fuck and blast old school hip hop.

Smoking sativa makes me ski really well I feel. I'm just so much more focused on what I'm doing and more "in the moment" if that makes sense. I've grown up a bit and stopped smoking but will always remember how much of a great time being high while skiing was

Lol I'm glad to see a subject I know as a first year skiier idk how it effects me but as a decade long grower , I know it all depends on the person. And sativa indica is just determined on the mycerene terpene/flavonoids count which adds taste and helps thc flow into the brain ... .5 or lower is sativa .5 or higher its indica but it doesn't always determine the "lazy high".
