It's seriously the ice that produces all the sick park skiers out here. It definitely gives you incentive to stick your shit. Cause you know, that it's going to suck ass when you eat it.
I have been an victim to the ice many times. 2 broken legs, concussion, various bruises. But overall it makes you a better skier. Skiers out west are awesome, but I seriously think that a lot would have some adapting to do to our conditions, before they could kill it here.
