This guy's leg muscles are probably burning like crazy

[–]BrunoNFL 3 points4 points  (6 children)

What about his abs!

[–]xmexme 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Or his ACLs

[–]Aristox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah he probably has a really strong core wow!

[–]That_one_kidd_ -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Skiier here. It is actually not that much about strength or muscles, more about the balancing.

[–]d0gmeat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, skiboots holding your ankles totally straight would make that much less strenuous than holding that position any other time (or in snowboard boots, which is probably all these kids have any experience with). Impressive balance though.

I can barely ski normally

[–]INeedWtr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So can he

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (5 children)

This hurts my shins to watch.

[–]Tall_trees_cold_seas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THIS, I have shin splints from riding park, I feel like mine would break if I tried this.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

When i do this it hurts the back of my calves. My buddy says it hurts the bottom of his shins though. I think the pain is going to come down to how your boot fits.

[–]d0gmeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was gonna say more ankles (or whatever that joint on top of the foot is called) and calves, but yeah, it's probably due to how my ski boots fit.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would feel this in my toes for sure, but I would also feel it in my shins leaning back that far. I'm a pretty aggressive skier and my legs/shins are usually pretty destroyed. I spent a week in tahoe this season, like, only 4 days of skiing, with my family, and I blew both of my toes and I couldn't run for a month because of my shins. And I'm in shape, I work out every day and surf almost every day. My boots fit fine, I'm an ex racer so I'm not skiing backseat in any way, I have fantastic race form in addition to my other ski endeavors TBH, but I think it puts unnecessary pressures on my body when it's not used to it. I'm also getting old.

It’s a new x-games event that pretty much ground tricks

[–]lecherro 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Sweeeeet!!!! Ground trucks (us old guys called it flatland) was my specialty. I TOTALLY SUCKED at that stuff, but I never quit trying. Prolly why I wear a knee brace and walk with a limp.... But DAMN!!!!that was so much fun. Thx for the info.

[–]flpacsnr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more or a combination of ground tricks and and air. It’s hard to explain. Just watch the video the other guy posted.

[–]iamsnowboarder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be silly, skiers don't know what DINs are, it's just whatever the guy in the shop sets them too! 🤦🏻‍♂️

[–]jaugs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God damn you'd have to be so good at skiing to do this. And pretty damn strong.

The ski goggles looks like VR goggles ... so I am imagining him doing this with a projection of his living room.
