I’m writing a paper for school about the future of my passions and want other opinions - With all the new things in skiing (Jib league, Saudi Arabia, FIS becoming even stricter, etc.) what is the next step in the evolution of skiing?

Future spins become the present spins, and the good old set-rotations of today will fall into obscurity, just like the d-spin. The arm-flailing bringbacks and writhing phantom rotations will be sought after by judges and viewers as the new meta.

I think there needs to be lower divisions in slope comps atleast in Sweden because you have to be able to both way corks and doubles in the slopestyle tour and only the tryhard comp skiers doing it while there are allot of good skiers who cant those tricks but want to compete

Yeah I hope the more style individualistic skiing we have seen in jib league begins to be valued more in comp but realistically idk
