Half pipe skiing is cool.
While many mountains invest more and more in parks, less and less is being invested into half-pipes.
This is the first time I ever saw a lot of halfpipe skiers.
“Pipe skis” thats something that will cost a lot.
It certainly is not necessary for dropping into the 12 or 15 foot pipe at your local hill.
A big thing I didn’t expect in regards to watching the half pipe skiers training was the coaches.
Real coaches, yelling coaches, angry coaches, coaches who can’t even ski.
This is a national team coach.
A career gymnastics coach recruited to teach half-pipe skiing.
This may mean we are beginning to watch the end of halfpipe.
