is skiing the easiest extreme sport out there?

harder than rollerblading? harder than bmx? harder than skateboarding? snowboarding? wakeboarding? surfing?

 
what the fuck are you talking about toe? Just by using the word extreme you have demeaned the sport.

powskier1080 - 'All your signature sums up is how big a fuckup you are.'

googoo271 - 'Oh of course we get a post from our good ignorant assfuck, phrosty'

Oh, shit I spelt something wrong? Fuck you cocksucker!
 
gosh, toes, i am overwhelmed by your stupidity!!! The basic concept of skiing is easy, stand there and don't fall, but if you're going to take it further at all, it becomes a little bit harder...

Skiing has to be one of the most technical sports out there.

BMX and skateboarding are also in my regards as being extremely difficult

Eat. Sleep. Breathe. Ski.

 
skiers go way bigger that all those sports you just listed. and skiing is cooler than all those sports you just listed.

 
that has to be the most stupid comment i have ever read, toe. We are all dumber for have reading that. i award u no points and may god have mercy on ur soul~ Billy Madison

Hoked on foniks wurked fur me. kant u tel?

 
dude ur a fucking idiot skiing is def. a hard sport and i dunno about kayaking being the easiest i mean u are just basically floating down a river but theres got to be more to it

SNOW GODDAMMIT!
 
Skiing is a sport that takes YEARS to be able to say you're even mediocre at. I'd consider that difficult. If you think you're the shit and then some, go try racing. You'll find out in a hurry that you really AREN'T the shit and then some. Or go hit the bumps. Or big-mountain. There are so many aspects to the sport, each extremely difficult.

Having been a professional BMX biker for a small portion of my life, I can tell you that BMX is quite a bit more difficult than skiing. Take the balance required by skiing and multiply it by at least three, then add the fact that you're riding on cement or dirt, neither of which you slide on nearly as well if you bail. Skateboarders also have my props, that is tough.

ok, who ever says kayaking is easy, stop speaking... kayaking requires so much skill, just to stay alive, let alone be good. the act of rolling an upside down kayak to an upright position is one of the most complicated and counter-intuitive physical manuevers of any sport, and you have to be able do it without even thinking before you can even consider tackling a difficult run. cause you don't have time to think while your being thrown around like you're in a washing machine, and you're head is bashing rocks. there are skiers who tackle runs that require must make moves, but thats not most of us... most paddlers i know including my self face 'you fuck up, you die' situations almost all the time. there aren't posers in kayaking. posers drown.

Ah jibbers... remember when people used to take 25 years to be good at skiing? When skiing was skiing and jibbing was jibbing? When racers were considers good skiers because they were? The only sport in the world harder than (good) skiing is surfing.

form is out. expression is in. most things worth doing or appreciating go through this phase. its not bad, just different.

skiing is easy in a sense. ANYONE can learn to snowplow down a beginner trail in a day. But it takes years to ski with technique and style. Skiing is always changing, from stance, position, etc. Which makes it one of the hardest sports to 'perfect'

to add to what coyote said in defense of kayaking- river running is tough, dangerous and requires alot of skill, but if you've ever seen some of the freestyle rodeo stuff that guys are doin now those are some of the most difficult and physically demanding tricks out there.

oh, no doubt... some of the new aerials are so complicated... helixes and donkey flips, they're pretty nuts. the physics involved in launching a kayak through the air and doing a flip... well, its just crazy... and now corran adison is doing misty flips... in a fucking kayak!

skifree737 - um, the fact that skiers go bigger than the other sports listed is completely irrelevant.

It has absolutely nothing to do with what we are talking about.

Hangliders go higher than skiers, but that doesn't mean it's more technically challenging.

Skateboarding and BMX'ing are extremely technical sports. Look at the pros and the stunts they can pull.

If you say these two sports are easy then you are an ignorant bastard.

Eat. Sleep. Breathe. Ski.

 
Going down a mountain on skis is not necessarily skiing. To be good at skiing takes years. It may not be the hardest sport out there, but it is definetly not the easiest.

 
i think its easier than skateboarding for sure...and snowboarding and surfing...not really wakeboarding and rollerblading tho
