Very fun. Hip deep? Ha ha. Bumps? Ha ha again. If you didn't have that little third ski out front, you could lift up, change your weighting, and do real powder and real bumps. Have you demo'd real skiis? I'm not being negative, just teasing. Skiing is nothing but fun at a certain skill level. How do you get those things on the lift? Is this filmed using a Go Pro camera mounted on the helmet?
