The beginnings of the Ski X event is about to begin today around noon. Its about time this event has made it into the Olympics. For those that don’t know wat it is, its a 4 man race to the bottom of the hill. The course consists of high bank turns, woops sections, jumps all while at high speeds with your competitors on your tail. Its become known as Nascar of the slopes. Very fun time if you ever are at a resort that has a boardercross (skier X) course I would deffinetley suggest taking a run down it, even just for fun.
If you get a chance to watch it today, and you can bear watching skiing, definetley watch it you wont be dissapointed.

That shit looks nuts. Ive thought about what it would be like to go down on my hockey skates sometimes when its really icy. I didnt even imagine they would turn it into a race.

yea 17 bucks, my thought is, its 17 bucks so even if it’s packed who cares, but its also the middle of the week, most people still work m-f 9-5 jobs, hopefully not everyone takes it off for cheap skiing.
