Ski Pipe in olympics? Yes or no

this is such an old topic... no one would pass the drug testing, so fuck it.

i'd like to see skiing find a happy medium between where snowboarding and inline skating have gone (explosion of popularity vs. no one cares). i honestly think things are good right now where they are, but times will change, the industry will go through growing pains and hard times, but i'm just going to keep skiing regardless of what's in the olympics or how many planks the Flying Tomato rides. i was skiing when it wasn't cool to ski, i'm skiing while it is cool (now), and i'll continue when it's back to being lame. whether or not skiing superpipe is in the olympics is trivial as none of us will ever get to actually compete in it, so instead of worrying about it, why not just try to ignore what kind of commercial success some people are trying to milk out of skiing (and snowboarding) and just do what you enjoy? you'll be skiing when you're 70 and while it'll be nice to tell younger generations who you saw, the truly epic stories will be of the days when the powder was so deep you could barely ski and the lines so steep you almost fell off the side of the damn mountain.

we're going to debate superpipe in the olympics for a long, long time. just go fuckin ski instead. it'll be a lot more fun.
 
Works the same way as an amusement park, without the lines.

haha so true. I think skiing in the olympics could be good for the sport but then again who am i to decide what is "good" for skiing. Skiing is eternal, people will be sliding down snow with sticks on their feet until snow is no more. Whether or not we'll still be progressing our tricks in the stunt ditch or sill doing grinders down rails in 2050..well, who knows, but skiing is fine the way it is, so lets just let the good times roll and not worry about bad publicity or recognition in society..fuck em, skiing is fun right? so do it
 
off topic, but people dont smoke tobacco cuz it gives them a high, they smoke it cuz it relieves stress, peopel smoke pot mostly for the high, and when they cant get it, the smoke more or move on to more powerful drugs..correct me if im rong, i smoke neither tobacco or pot and i dont drink alchohol
 
ya but i know a lot of people who just smoke it for some relaxation after a hard week at work or school or something and i agree some people end up goin to mor epowerful drugs if they smoke pot but i most the people i know smoked cigarettes before pot and dont do anything more
 
Id hope it would debut in whistler '10. And as for who would win..well, with the way pipe riding is progressing, who the hell knows
