Shima and Haffey did NOT have good style on the rails from a ski perspective, that comes with a little more time on skis and for them it would probably come in a matter of days. Their jumps were looking incredibly good looking for their second day and impressive even if it was their second year. And I'm willing to bet that if they did make the transfer to skiing they'd become sponsered by some big names within months (look up Kaya Turski.) Each sport has their highlights, compared to rolling, ski rails are fucking lame. But ski halfpipe and big air beat the living shit out of rolling's counterparts and not to mention that at the moment, all the money is in skiing.

Those guys were so dumb saying they had no style. I was thinking man only if those fuckers knew all the tricks they laces on skates they would keep their mouths shut for good. Because rollerblading envolves more rails and gaps. Not downhill jumps and flat park rails all the time. I dont know people just can be really stupid about things they have no idea about. Like skiiers are just learning things that rollerbladers have been doing for ages. Oh well they'll just have to learn the hard way i guess right?

I got the cheap lessons and what not but i picked it up pretty quick. Its reallly fun and i get where jeff is coming from becuase like none of my friends wanted to ski they all wanted to snowboard and I kept getn shit from people saying "Well why didnt you snowboard?" sking and rollerblading are so alike in the sense that they are overshadowed by boarding but that weekend i felt good coming home knowing that i tried it out and enjoyed it. I feel even better now to see those rollers up there in ski's too. Dude i tried sking for the first time at big bear mountian last week and it was pretty dope.

I learned to roll vert and street parks for cross training, it definitely made me a better skiier, and both sports are equally as much fun. The jumps and rails are much bigger and slightly less technical on the mountain, but ski parks have a lot in common with rolling. Guys like Haffey, Shima and Morales are natural athletes and definitely could learn quickly and introduce new style into skiing from a rollerbladers perspective. anyone whos a good rollerblader should give skiing a try sometime. damn i wish i was in mammoth. btw, rollings not in a dark age. just my opinion tho.
