Replying to What would Skiing be like if Fruit Booting was as big as Skateboarding and vice versa?
The new wave is a tsunami that will consume as all.
Skiing obviously takes influence from other action sports in tricks. Dad cams being trendy ain't original and neither are back swaps to switch (snowboarders made it hot first).
So I was daydreaming today and wondered what skiing would be like if skateboarding was a tiny niche sport and blading was mainstream. There's no doubt there would be some changes but I'm not super into blading so I'm not sure what those would be. Personally, I like doing whack tricks and I think it's because I've watched too many blading videos lol.
Thoughts? I'm curious what kind of tricks would be mainstream. I'd bet everyone and their mom could backslide most rails in the park without much issue.
