I was curious what everyone though about this topic. I know there are others, but they mainly talk about 'how skiing is selling out' or stuff like that. I don't know, with all the exposure as of late, skiing is definately growing in popularity, but how mainstream is it?

not very. even with the recent exposer from the xgames and global x, it isn't very mainstream, but i kind of like it that way. i don't want it to change any more. in the past 2 years it has changed a lot and i would like it to stop here. before it just becomes a fad like snowboarding where its the cool thing to do.

not very. everyone who asks if you ski or snowboard and you say that you ski they always sound disapointed or somthing they just say, 'o' and nod there head were if you say you snowboard they're always like 'right on man do you do any crazy tricks i see those other kids doin these days?' but thats just for peps who dont have a clue. i say i ski and fuck what they think

i think its fun to educate the masses about skiing. you show them a mag like axis and it blows their mind!
