So im not trying to sound racist but am I the only one that has never seen a black park skier? Like I never have and I curious why I haven't. I have seen every other Race but I have never seen a black man park skiing. The common stereotype is black people are good at sports but there are no black people that I have seen park ski. I believe Race doesn't matter and I have like 3 black friends but im just wondering.

because skiing takes money and only 37% of African Americans make from 35k to 100k and 10.6% make upwards of 100k. So add that onto the fact that African Americans only make up 17% of the population you have a very small demographic of African Americans who could actually ski.

There are multiple, you just have to find them. Black people always seem to complain more about the cold too
