ShwankyWhat are some of the ski questions you always wanted to ask but didn't want to look like a jackass? For me its what the hell does ON3P mean?

john18061806Why will skiing never be as cool as snowboarding?
jlens05What the hell is the Icelantic symbol supposed to be?

HodorSerious question. How the fuck do pros feet and shins survive? I land a tiny 3 wrong and have shinbang for days.
Gnar_Shralp406One degree Celsius, the point at which water turns to snow.
freeballerWouldn't it be 0 degrees Celsius? The freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius. I think 1 degree would be slush at best.
Gnar_Shralp406I'm not a scientist. I'm just telling you what I read back in the day on their website.
freeballerOur public school system has seriously failed all of us if we think we have to be scientists to know that water freezes at 0 degree Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

lil.Boyefeelin like an Ahole rn, but it turns to ice at 0 degree C.
RyhanWhy does it burn when I pee?
wpskiwhy do people i meet say theyre really good at skiing, but can only ski groomers?
_tacquito_Im a young, progressing park skier and I would really represent your company well, would you guys sponsor me?
icedwhy does my hair itch under a helmet (wearing neck tube and beanie).
KlausWhy do we all wear goggs under the helmet
Shower_BoyAm I accident prone or just really bad at skiing?
peterspringer10Not a stupid question, just one regarding stupid people. Why on earth do parents as full grown seemingly intelligent adults bring kids (or go by themselves) into the park and carve under landings or stop in the worst spots and then proceed to yell at you when you narrowly avoid killing them about how you’re being dangerous
wpskiHad a run in with that earlier today...
peterspringer10It’s ridiculous, even when you try to be completely polite about it they lose it and turn it into a lecture about how they’re an adult and they know the rules better... even if they’ve never even read the park warning signs

VinnieFTo set this straight:
Their website says "One Degree Celsius is the temperature in which water molecules begin to transform into their solid state. "
Which is false.
Water molecules also do no 'begin to transfer into their solid state' at 0 C either.
The actual temperature is close to 4 deg C (or roughly 39 f).
This is the reason water is densest at roughly 4 degrees: water molecules continually become less excited and 'slow down' and are able to pack closer and closer as temperatures cool to 4 C (water is at its densest state). Then, once it reaches below that temperature, water molecules start to bond to form ice. Ice is less dense than water so as water cools from 4 C to 0 the bonds forming by the water molecules actually push them apart and it becomes less dense until 0, when the molecules slow enough to fully bond to each other and form ice.
So Icelantic is wrong. 1 C means nothing. 4 C and 0 C are the important numbers.
