i skate a hell of a lot more than i get to ski, and it really is quite different. i think it does help a bit though because my skiing progresses a bit every season, even though i only get 20 days if im lucky (still absolute shit at jumps, but i am on skates as well)
Your drawing does not fit industry standards. Also, it is a crappy idea that wouldnt be worth trying to trick on. Also, ive done already out of a miniramp in a skatepark.
im not going to get them now anyway, the shipping is too much. if you search ebay for 686 xxl they will pop up, some chocolate coloured ones. price is like over 200 dollars but it has the option to make an offer and the guy would have taken mine of 100. probably worth it if you like baggy stuff.
there is a backseat switch landing, kind of. you know when you land switch, and your leaning a bit back towards your tips, and you know your going to fall in a few seconds, but you cant do anything about it? i love it
try being a foreigner and flying into the US. fingerprints, mugshots, "are you a fucking terrorist?!?", we get the whole lot. way to encourage tourism.
