This is for masters thesis. It's super important to me. Also there will be tons of sponsors watching this thread so be sure to make a good pitch! Please don't lie about your skills. My colleges/professional career hinges on your complete truthfulness.

Pipe_MunkyWhat's a skier?

I think it's when they cut one of those surfboards for snow in half and do trick things

I've never navigated a road full of landmines but I have skied on a spring saturday or two. I'm not sure if it's exactly the same but it can't be bad training.

I'm not the best skier on the mountain but I'm pretty good when it comes to playing in the side and backcountry. My park skills could be better but I'm getting to old for that shit.

I can land backwards after taking off forwards. Too bad your survey sucks and didn't include an option accurately representing my skill level. You're going to fail harder than Ninthward.

I went by a metal thingy once. It looked pretty cool. Mommy said I can hit it next year.

I think I understand the question but I definitely don't understand the answers... which should tell you a lot.

I can ski pretty well, but more important is my old lady is pretty!

Here you go "tons of sponsors" https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/905347/-Spin-To-Win-a-Wild-Thing-Dominator-Jacques-Mt--Bachelor

I guess I need to answer the pole now, yet none of the statements seem to fit for me. My wife thinks I am the best skier on the Mt. though. She may be somewhat delusional due to being with me as a partner for so long as well.

Okay, I'm going to check the circle.
