Hahahahah....best part is i remember watching that before making my summer setup and being like "wtf, I know I'm not good but god damn these guys suck..." 4 years ago.

My favorite summer edit of all time, much respect due:

I'm done for the summer. I'm a little sick of summer skiing actually, never thought the day would come. It's been real fun.

 
Heres my setup in action, Im still new so any tips and tricks on what I am doing wrong from a technical perspective would be greatly appreciated! Setup works great though! My biggest issue seems to be that I always land standing straight up, feet close together, yet when I try to land with them farther apart I seem to have issues. I can land straight up and slide the downhill foot out, but that doesnt seem like the correct way to do it.

how tall are all your drop ins? im planning mine to be around six foot will that be sufficient for speed?
 
Cooking up my summer edit over the next few days. Return to college is in several weeks and my knee is meh so it seems the skiing is over for now.
 
Check out what I did this summer

That setup and that edit was dope af!

that turf for the landing actually looks pretty slidey

haha thanks, it's just my tall drop in though. I'm going to make it even bigger next year and attempt some railzilla shit

thats crazy, you get a shit ton of speed

Oh i suppose there's also the mwax that I forgot to mention. The mSnow guys also sell mWax, a rub on wax designed for mSnow. I know you don't use mSnow but the wax is actually really legit.

do you rub it on your skis?

Yeah depending on how fast I want to go I end up applying it up to every 5-6 hits. I bought a decent amount of it on a sale a year or so ago. It's also hot where I live in the summer so it gets dry fast.

It just feels more like skiing to me when I go fast on my rig. I used to go much slower when my ramp was turfed.
