If I ski with friends it doesn't really matter, if I ski by myself music helps me stay concentrated/hyped and try stuff. Also it feels like I'm skiing in a movie segment or an edit haha.

No, but learning to speak English makes you ski better.

I find it lets you not over think things and let your body's natural instincts take over which are usually right.

At least for me, music clears my mind. I tend to over think and let fear get to me and hold me back. But when I listen to music I can focus on that and skiing instead of focusing on fear and skiing.

So does it make me ski better? No, I do that part. It just helps to get me in the mindset that allows me to throw down.

If I am the least bit high it completely fucks me up. I'll be jamming to some Tupac, completely forget I'm skiing, then be like " Holy shit I'm in the air and there is a snowboarder beneath me...SHIT".

I'm surprised NPR can keep you going on the mountain.



In general my music will keep me stoked but in the end it won't make me any better.

U got dat right BRICKKKKKSQUADDDDDDDDDDD

But I find that listening to certain genres helps set my mind to what kind of skiing im trying to do. Like reggae is for pow days when I'm just cruising n bein more chill. Rap is for when I'm finally go hard in da park n do gangster shit wit ma homiezz

talked to this dude who was a snowboard competitor in the early 00's who said, when he was hitting the pipe for practice he would be listening to some pumping ass music. But when i was competing, he would put on some calm music since he was already fucking pumped up because.. competition? and that helped him calm the nerves.

So i guess no, music didn't make him ski better.. but he won some snowboard medals i think

Yes it is scientifically proven that wearing 7 layered 7xl tall tees and listening to ghetto hood hyphy music, you can inrease your trick stomping abilities by circa 20-35 %.

I find listening to music distracting. A two beer buzz accomplishes this for me.
