I tried searching and couldn't find anything. I don't think he is, but I just am not sure.

Today I over rotated a backflip half of a rotation. Essentially, I did a back flip and a half and landed flat on my back on very hard packed snow. This resulted in a trip to the hospital which sucked. Regardless, I don't want to get discouraged. So could you pro back flippers out there...

Does anyone fall forward on rails? I never see people fall head first, but last week I was hitting a rail and my front ski cought an edge and threw me head first. I hurt my shoulder pretty bad, so I wanted some advice on how to prevent that. And I can't just lean back other wise I will slip...

Just wondering how much it must snow (minimum) for you guys to consider it to be a good powder day at you mountain. And if you don't mind, mention what region you are from. I am curios how one's region affects his/her perspective on powder skiing.

Today, when I was riding the lift with some snowboarders, they were like, "You look like one of those trick skiers." It kind of made me laugh becuase I thought of how someone might go to somebody like Tanner and be like, "Hey dude, aren't you one of those trick skiers." I could see a little...

I just wanted to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving! God bless!

This season my friend and I are planning on doing some private ski lessons (no affiliation with the ski resort). My friends family runs a church camp that caters to winter visiters, so we will have customers. I was wondering; What do I charge, 20 an hour? What is the best # of skiers to...

The biggest, and only, storm has hit Arizona this weekend. After a 144 days without rain, Phoenix, AZ, gets 2-5 inches of SNOW! Its been in the 80s down there. Up here in the mountains, where I live, we are getting like 2+ feet of Snow! Too bad every ski resort in Arizona is closed. But...

What is with that? Lately, I have been noticing it more and more. There are all these icons that are used by like three or four useres, especially the the popular post makers. Why can't people be slightly original?

Now don't get jealous, but I do like to brag. I know I already posted this in another thread, but its okay.

This last weekend, I enjoyed a wonderful time skiing at Brighton, Utah. First time skiing in another park besides my home mountain. Very fun, very different. Some aspects were intimidating, but others were spectacular. None the less, I had a great time. Unfortunately, my home mountain is...

Today I found out what mountains our school ski trip is going to this weekend. This whole time, I was expecting Park City, Snowbird and maybe Brighton. I was very excited because it would be my first trip to Utah. Well. . . to my dismay, I learned that thursday - we ski solitude; friday -...

Okay, so I was at the mighty Arizona ski resort, and I am cruising through the park (three runs to choose from total). Well, throughtout the day, groups of beginner raid the park and begin to tear up the already worthless jumps, completely desolating the lips. About mid day, a group of...

Hall is winning the expn poll for power performer of the xgames. Tanner Hall - 49% Shuan White - 38% TJ Schiller - 12% Skiers rule the snow world. Hip Hip Hurray!

We all know that everyone is going to be voting for Shaun White. Therefore, all of us skiers need to pick one skier to vote for tomarrow. That way all of our votes are focused to a skier, and our skier will be the power performer of the x-games. So lets decide right now. TANNER HALL or TJ...

After watching Tanner and Simon, I was just curious. How do the pros test those big 100 foot gaps like that? Because if you go to slow, your dead. If you go to fast, your dead. How do they know how fast to go the first time?

Now before you come to any conclusions, I want to assure you that I am by no means suggesting that racing is better, or even compares to freestyle skiing. However; I do see one thing I like about racing. There are no gay judges they have to deal with. Even though Slopestyle, big air, and...

I hear a lot of stories about skiers getting hurt doing sick stuff. Well, I was wondering if all the tricks and progression you have are worth the pain that comes with it? So far, All I have had is a broken hand from a rail. But it was totally worth it once I slid my first box. How bout it...

I don't know if you guys remember my thread about "how can a lone skier get better?" But most everyone said that skiing with other skiers as good or better than you doesnt matter. Well, after today, I will have to disagree with that. A kid from Colorado and his friend came up to my resort, in...
