Replying to Appreciation for rails

I grew up ski racing and could never understand why people would wreck their skis hitting rails. I thought perfect edges and carves were the "right" way to ski. After quitting racing, I began to get more adventurous and wanted to explore new kinds of skiing. I then became the stereotypical big mountain kid that was "too busy hitting cliffs" to go to the park. I eventually started to crave something new that I could challenge myself with. I bought a pair of twin tips as rock skis, but one day I attempted to hit a rail and realized that shit is super fun. Rails opened up a completely new part of skiing that I was missing out on before. I did my first 2 on the other day and at this point, I can tell you that busted edges are way more fun than perfect ones.
