Neither, the average recreational skier owns the mountain in terms of numbers and marketing. Neiter freeskiers or racers make up a larger demographic than the average joe

damn, you kids love posting threads on the EXACT same topic over and over and over again.

why use a big word when a diminutive one will suffice?
 
usually its the Racers who own the mountain. So much money gets pumped into racing.

Yeah these racing threads are getting old, don't hate on other skiers, if you want to hate on something do it to skiboarders that use poles

I have a soul, just no remorse.
 
i use to race. and im so glad i did, it took my skiing to a whole new level. even tho i hated it i know it was a good thing for me

 
ya i think everyone deserves their fair share of respect, racers go so fast down a sheet of ice and we dont go as fast but fast enough over jumps and spin on top of it.

 
I have nothing against racers, most people who raced first tear it up, theres a long article about it in the last issue of freeze

 
neither, its all of your moms that drive you up to the mountain and buy your lunch for you.

i disagree about wut u said about if u havnt raced then u suck on the mtn besides in the park, ive neva raced n im pretty good prolly betta then a lot of racers, the only thing is i dont ski ice and thats wut they are the best at

 
yeah freestylers own the mountains in my opinion. But , damn the racers deffinetly put up a good battle with their racing gear. WHOOSH!!

 
I dont have a problem with racers on the race course but when I'm one of the 15 or so freeskiers in park and you show up in park with a speed suit those gay fucking slated helmets and curved poles trying to show me up..fuck that and i agree MOST racers have NO style... Im embarassed for them.

 
Racers might make more money but in a couple years everyones going to realize that freeskiings the new wave and racings going to take a backseat plus .. we dont need to wear a speed suit and look like fags to make $... "FREEZY"

 
Racers are good skiiers they rip the whole mountain generally, park rats usually have their section down near the bottom thats not too steep to play on.

your steeze is like the antithesis of the gangsta-tanner-gorillasteeze junk... the type of skiing that says "Fuck groomed parks and rails, rip big mountain lines and throw backflips off everything-J.D. May
 
some racers are cool, but there are some racer kids that think they are owning my homemt. last time i skiied, i skiied down to the lift, and then i came a racer, who turned fakie infront of me and laughed. what a dick-

 
Nah man, i hate to say this but it is qual qual, and we have to share the mountain. This is the only way this will work.

Matman10: Man lat you had that 7 down but you binder poped off

Laterails:Yeah i think they aren't adjusted, or it could be the fact that all that is holding them together is one of my pubes
 
Jon Olsson, Timmy D, Zach Davison. All racers. I remember when Tim used to skip awards (even if he won) so that he could go up top and ski.

freezy's on to something with his money comment. it seems like thats where all the clout is with managment. Even though mgt may want to help push their park and events that coincide with it, the $$$ involved with spandex pole jockeys is hard to ignore, and very ingrained into the ski culture as a whole.

what needs to happen to bridge this gap of cultures a little better is an increase in local skier cross events. Where both styles can be seen, utilized and embraced all while calling it skiing.

The problem here lies with a precieved lack of interest amoungst park designers / risk managers / and marketing. While I like the idea, not one person approached me on the idea this season, so its hard to justify the 50,000 it would take to do it properly and just come up with something else to do.

 
i snowboarded. not raced

are you gay? Seriously, how unoriginal can you get. and almost every post u've made in this thread makes me feel more stupid, are you 10? Skiing is Skiing, i ski with someone who races and he can kick my ass in the park 95% of the time. They just have better form. so in your words, DEAL WITH IT
