So here's a nifty idea that's been knocking around in the 'ol brain bucket for a minute. Have you ever seen one of these pentagon graphs that show the characteristics of a video game character on 5 different levels? Or maybe a graph with x/y axes that plots characteristics?
Something like this:
or this:
or maybe a 4 quadrant graph based on characteristics, like this:
I want to do that for all the pro skiers we end up talking about on this forum, with the help of NS.
The first thing I want to figure out is what characteristics people care on this site care about. My initial idea is to rate each skier from 0-100 in each category and make graphs from there.
Here are some general characteristics I'm thinking about to get the brain waves flowing:
Jump skills
Rail skills
Style (general)
Film cred
Comp cred
New wave
Baggy wave (2008-esque)
OG/oldschool cred
Go-big factor/DGAF factor
Future spins
Sick/big crew
No crew/solo dolo
Park prowess
Big mountain prowess
etc.
If you think this is a stupid idea dont respond and I'll just start making graphs for skier that I like.
