I do a whole bunch of stuff. If you want I can make you a training program... that's what I do at school.

 
Anyone that tells you you only need to work your legs doesn't kow what they are talking about. Upper body is almost as important for skiing especially your back. And of course if you work your back you have to even things out by working your chest/shoulders/arms. Working your upper body will help prefent injuries as well as give you more power in your skiing even in the park.

Besides doing whatever you think seems reasonable for your legs and abs/obliques do some of these or all of them.

Lat pull down

Lat rows

1-3 other lat exercises the more the better since in my case my back is always getting hurt while skiing from bad falls.

A couple shoulder exercises( there are about a millions different ones. Just find some that works well for you.) Shoulder specific stuff isn't that important because they get worked during almost ever other upper body exercise.

Shoulder shrugs(traps)

Tricep lift

Bench press

Incline Press(upper pecks)

Declne press(lower pecks)

Butterfly

Curls(your bicps will get a pretty good workout just from the Lat exercises)

Alternate days between the chest stuff and the back stuff. Just throw the other stuff in there where you want.

^^ what he said is good. also core strength is key (your ab and back muscles)crunches and leg raises are great exercises. Another good thing to work on is balence. grab one of those big exercise balls and place it infront of the squat rack. use the bar to get up and stand on it. now let go. once you can stand still on it try shifting your weight. once you get really good you'll be able to just place it infront of you and jump up on the mother fucker without falling off.
