Replying to NS I NEED HELP (research paper on ski subculture)

Jahoe_Stuyve:

I'm a student at university of nevada, reno and I'm doing a research paper on skiing as a subculture. My paper doesn't notice the difference between park/big mountain because I wanted to take a broader approach. Here are a list of questions I have come up with to help research opinions of skiers that actively participate in skiing. Again these are just some questions i have come up with. I am mostly focusing on the impact of media and business on skiing, ie. what has changed, changing media importance, business marketing, Small companies vs Big companies.

In your opinion, what has changed most in the style of skiing?

What do you think about the current state of freeskiing?

Do you think big companies are helping the sport?

What would you like to see more from big companies?

Do you think big companies exploit talented riders solely for promotional gain?

What do you think about the direction of freeskiing?

What cultural signs have businesses used for marketing purposes?

Are businesses supplying a pipe dream to young skiers through marketing techniques?

What role do you think après plays in the skiing subculture?

With the Olympics coming up, many companies have started doing ads where there athletes are not skiing but rather hanging from wires in front of a green screen. What are your thoughts about this?

What do you hope comes from the Olympics?

Any other comments or thoughts?
