Your Prediction of skiing in 20 years

[ride_switch]

What do you think? What will the skis be like? what companies will still be in business, who will still be riding? Will we be teleported to the top of the hill instead of riding the lift up? Post your predictions.

 

[Genome]

rails rails rails

 

[pesja]

twintips will be gay! its all about the quad tips in the future, skis that you can hit jumps with any way you want. of course since we will not have any edge to grip with everything will be flat and uber small so we wont die!

 

[Edward.]

im gonna be skiing with my family, im gonna be wearing bright ski clothing but im still gonna freeski, and my 2 year old cousin will be in the x games

 

[jibs]

see 'saucer boy'

 

[skier27]

idk..i cant really see much more progression outside of 5 years... i have no idea, maybe double corks and double flips onto rails, smooth switch 1800's over 200ft gaps, corks and flips onto urban rails, huge urban drops and urban gaps that people are throwing switch 10s off of.??

 

[Develop]

doubtful, in 20 years we will look back and laugh at how cool we all thought rails were

 

[industry-insider]

indoor ski centers in cities because of the huge impact on the economy, and skis so fat they look like snowboards.

 

[e.will]

none whatsoever, the progression will just blow up the sport untill there is none left

 

[Aenigma]

Park skiers will strap saucers to their feet so they can ride in every direction, and big mountain skiers will be riding 220's with 130mm waists......not! It's hard to say what will happen in the future, without hindsight progression is a lot harder to predict.

 

[east]

return of snowblading

 

[sKILOve07]

hopefully it will become a bigger sport, more and more people are getting in to it

 

[BillyGoteMan]

skiing will prob progress, ill b 37 yrs old and be skiing with my kids

 

[imotion]

 

[BIGairVZ]

The human body has it's limits so there's not gonna be any 1800's or doubles into rails, but we will be indoors on our hover boards that can float up hill and ride downhill like normal. it's gonna be awesome though.. that all i know

 

[TheQuailman]

50 years ago people never thought that something like chad's is possible just like now we don't think double flips onto rails are possible. The advancment in padding and medical care will let people do sicker shit

 

[actchill]

i dont think double flips to rails would be so sick

 

[mtbakerguy]

i will probably be the leader in the industry

jk by the way

 

[ride_switch]

yah, that would be way sick to wear pads that would never let you get hurt. You could try anything and you would never break anything or die!

 

[Knewnews]

best by a long shot

 

[Von]

i hope to god not

 

[B.L.A.K.E]

skiing will be gay mono will be cool, snowboarding will have taken over the pentagon.

 

[hiphopopotamus]

agree

stop globle warming and move to boulder

 

[stylishskier]

honestly... that takes the fun out of it man. Think, why do you get an adrenaline rush? Because you literally just tempted fate in some cases, not everyone can ski and not every is meant to ski and do this shit, thats why its amazing

 

[BIGairVZ]

^^very well put. i agree

 

[Lebbo]

No more skiing down here if global warming happens, everyone seems to be investing in ski mountains and developing them but then if this gloabl warming thing is for real then it seems a bit strange...

 

[onLINE]

there will be no more racing the snow park will be the whole hill at every hill and line will have good bindings by then and will have taken over the whole ski market

 

[Saki]

ya where going to be teleported everywhere and not have to worry about getting injured so where going to be doing some crazy shit

 

[phatbush]

monkeys will be skiing while we will be stuck doing all the labor.

 

[Ice-Is-Scary]

i'm hoping this whole rail fad goes away and people stop dressing like idiots

 

[ski8990]

Robots

 

[mk2]

jackets that have airbags built into them so when you fall the expand so you wont get hurt

 

[onLINE]

someone cant jib- its not that hard man start on a flat box you will grow to love it ps its not going anywhere

 

[dirty_dreb]

there will be none. we will melt our polar ice caps and fuck up the world because US is a cocksucker of a country and wont follow the Koyoto Accord.

 

[skier27]

^^ haha, yea seriously...

[SWRTOFFICIAL]

If we switch over to renewable energy for powering our houses and industries (don't worry you can still drive big truk), skiing will still be around, and its gonna be fucking sick, skis will probably be made from anti matter and you'll be able to do anything

 

[Knapzach]

Tele skiing on a dryslope

 

[WisconsinDogfart]
