so i was dragged to the book fair at my little sisters school and while i was there pretty much just roaming around looking for any books with something to do with skiing, so i see this title sports illistrauted top 20 under 20. i was looking trough and i see golf, surfing, football, tennis, skateboarding, soccer, gymnastics, snowboarding, and some others.... BUT there was NO skiing, snowboarding but no skiing, i was pretty much floored, why all the other sports yet ours gets no recognition. the boarders in the book were hannah teter and some guy i had never heard of, skateboarders was some girl from california and ryan sheckler, i mean come on.... and there was evening people who were on the upcoming, sort of like an am. but yeah anyone else got thoughts on this?

if there was skiers it would probably be either tight suits or neon suits doing tipdrops off of 20 foot cliffs.

I could pick out 20 footy players that would make my list before most under 20 skiiers. That list does seem like crap though (golf, Sheckler and no name snowboarders WTF?).
