I like jumps but not park jumps. I like finding the natural ramps hidden all over the mountain.

Rails because I've slid a 90ft handrail but the biggest jump I've hit is a 40 footer. Rails can take you to distant places man.

I prefer playful terrain outside the park, but when I'm in the park I hit rails and small fun jibs all damn day.

how do u use the poll,

I tried clicking on a button but I wanted to do three because i like rails, jumps and pipe. how do you vote for 3 at once on the poll? I really want to vote 3. I have search barred and couldnt find anything. I think its stupid that NS makes it so difficult to express your opinion on skiing. This sport is so restricted. I would actually rather not ski at all than to be confined by the boundaries of a bunch of gypsy IT dudes that probably cant even ski. How are we meant to progress the sport when we are constantly restricted by FIS and NS. Guys, we are at a turning point in the sport and have to make a decision as to where we want it heading...

Pipes are dead

RIP

You were fun, full of life, sometimes icy, sometimes nice


I'm going to miss you all.

12' and 14' pipe shredders rusting in boneyards of every mountain that's had a park for more than 10 years. Such a shame.

I heard even whiteface NY got rid of theres a couple years ago. They used to have the world cup/us open size comps there. If they dusted that, things don't look good.


I like the new parks but I kind of miss the old ones. Before rails were a thing. Jump after jump after jump. now a 3 jump line is tough to get sometimes. Before you had 10+ jump lines place. It was all about the air. Then you roll down to the ditch and get rad as fuck on them thurrr walls.

I voted for pipes because I though they might get lonely but probably prefer booters.
