Replying to Skiing Should be a Summer Olympic Event

I think it's awesome the USA is KICKING ASS is the Summer Olympics, however in my personal opinion, I can't turn them on and watch them. But.... If some type of skiing was an event, I'd call in sick for work every day to get rid of my summer blues. I understand there can't be snow, so to be creative I though an event could be made where they do a Nitro Circus/Candide Thovex take on it and create some Epic new events.

THOUGHTS/IDEAS?
