note: I'm not an expert and have never been.
An expert should be able to:
- Ski well in all conditions.
- Be able to ski gates competitively.
- Be able to ski moguls.
- Should be able to do a helicopter.
- Go 20' off a jump and land comfortably.
- Should be able to drop off of a 10' cliff and land in decent conditions.
- Be able to ski steep trees.
- Be able to ski fast and in control in variable conditions.
- Carve not skid turns.
Some of these make sense others are arbitrary. Wondering how you people look at it. Most skiers who are decent athletes and get enough time on the slopes probably have thought about it.
Can do all of the above...as if there was any doubt.
hahahhahahahha, yer so full of sh!t... skidding on yer tails in a stance that indicates a full diaper is hardly expert skiing....
The only expert skiers I know on 159cm skis are 100lb women.

and still you suck...good lord if yer an expert skier I'm god....yer a half@ss hack that no skier even remotely attempts to imitate or emulate...the best possible area of expertise your skiing exudes is a "how NOT to" for instructors to point out to their students...
I showed up this spring and ski'd w a good number of zoners, didn;t see your sorry @ss there nor did I hear a single person refer to you as a good skier, one of the better K zone skiers, someone who knows how to ski or anything similar... In fact about the only mention of you was when when rogman pretended to be you, and when I was out biking and Kzone came up in a conversation, someone said " ya know who really sucks? highway star." no one even mentioned your distinctive penis costume either...
far far far superior skier to highway star -- out...

indeed you are, still suck at skiing too... again didn't see you there, not A single person said you were a good skier, in fact what little was mentioned of you, NO ONE had ANYTHING good to say about you...
I just realized that you don;t actually wear a penis costume but in fact are just actually 100% dick...
still laughing at your literally most recognizable penis outfit that isn't actually an outfit but a persona embodied, and your half@ss hack skiing ability that isn't actual ability but lack thereof--- out...

As I have always said: the best skier on the mountain is the skier that has the most fun. Nobody has more fun than f.a.s.t.................therefore, f.a.s.t. is the best expert, all around skier. Freeski, if you have as much fun as f.a.s.t...............then, you too are the best expert, all around skier.

yep just what I expected pure chicken sh!t...ski off or f@ck off, time to back yer sh!t up or shut the f@ck up...
IS THAT f.a.s.t.? I was watching that video and at about 1:28 a skier enters the video from the left. I looked at that skier and saw that the skier has a jacket just like mine, an Obermeyer with white stripes on the arms. I say holy sh!t, I think that's me!!!! When was that video taken, is that f.a.s.t. skiing down Outer Limits?
