Learn to Freestyle ski

"Purchase the correct skis or snowboard"..."Most use a snowboard"

(Talking about the halfpipe):
"Freestyle skiers can go up and down the snow-walled sides for some extra fun."

"the skier can ride the rail, then ski down a ramp and perform a jump trick"

"You may need to purchase different sets of skis or snowboards for the tricks you want to perform. Many freestyle skiers own a regular pair of skis, a snowboard and snow blades."

I have a feeling someone from NS did this?

the same website gives 465 separate instructions various ski-related activities including how to:
- drop a cliff
- exit the heli on your heli-ski trip
- buy a hat for your child
- adjust your googles
- fall and get up

thus it becomes: the definitive guide to skiing

" Begin with the basic moves such as a mogul. A mogul is an advanced move performed with regular skis. Although the shorter, wider skis can get through the terrain of moguls, skis of standard length and width work the best."

Anyone want to buy my anthems? I'm off to buy a snowboard so I can do some extreme freestyle skiing! Hopefully I'll be able to throw down a mogul by the end of the season

"Experiment on the rails. These rails are similar to skateboard rails and are primarily used by snowboarders. In many ski parks, the rail is at the top of a ramp, so the skier can ride the rail, then ski down a ramp and perform a jump trick."

AAAAHAHAHAHA WHAT A TOOL!
I can just imagine the hunchback 30-year-old asian guy with glasses sitting in front of his Windows computer typing this up!! I'm asian by the way so i can say whatever i like

"The most basic component is the ramp. There are different sized ramps for different levels of skiers, but each requires exceptional balance to not only ride the ramp, but to land on your feet without injury."

"The half pipe is a section of snow that has two snowy sides on either side of the trail. Freestyle skiers can go up and down the snow-walled sides for some extra fun." - so wait what the fuck are you supposed to do other than "go up and down the snow-walled sides."??

"mogul"

this guy better be a NS member joking around
