Skiing SnowFlex easier?

Just watched the Project FleX video and it got me wondering, is it easier to throw down on SnowFlex than real snow?

While the skiing was super sick and awesome to watch, could those dudes do all that on a snow jump? Or is the fact that the jump is an always perfectly shaped never changing jump with perfectly predictable conditions every time making it easier to throw down big?

Its not easier or harder. Its different. You have to ski differently than you do on snow. It took me a few days to feel completely comfortable.

Not entirely true. I live near Liberty and ski snowflex a lot. If it rains shit gets sketchy, you ski a lot faster, and landings are drenched. though the jump is always the same, it still gets crappy conditions sometimes.
