ATRAT24I need to write a research essay, obviously I want to write about something skiing related, anyone know any easy but good topics that ill be able to find a shit ton of research on and be able to bang this thing out?
MJHarris15Just write some historical shit, how skis were originally use to how they are used today. Physical changes to the ski, changes in style of skiing.
ATRAT24That was my initial idea but thought it might be a little broad
MJHarris15Starting broad isn't a bad thing you're just giving yourself room to write however much you want,it allows you to pick what you really wana focus on. If you start out hyper focused on one subject withing a topic you'll find yourself going off topic a lot, WISHING you could write about the sport in a more general manner. This is all just personal opinion of course, but if you give yourself a general framework like
*Into
-Creation of skiing and how it has evolved into what it is today
-How the industry has had to evolve to keep up with the sport (in terms of modifying equipment, think about J Levinthal etc...)
-Trends within the sport.
.......
You know, make it yours, its your sport right? No sweat my man
ATRAT24That’s a good way of looking at. Thanks man tons of help!
MJHarris15Ya man, shoot me something if you need help, I'm usually in the mood to write
supersquidI wrote an essay on the necessary "evil" on large ski corporations. Weekend warriors and family vacations are what drive the ski industry. They buy skis from large industries and are the ones paying $20 for burger and fries. People that ski everyday and are fully committed to the sport have historically despised these companies yet they arent the ones ski companies and resorts make their money on. Large corporations arent inherently bad but they follow the money and the money isnt coming from park rippers posting insta vids its coming from racing and other things like that.
