so true, snowboarding made skiing what it is today, period. In the mid 80's at Mt BAKER, it was rare to see skiers ride powder, then Craig Kelly, Carter Turk, and a handful of locals started tearing up the frequent thigh deep stuff. I remember a time when skiers used ask us " why do you guys grab your boards when your in the air, you have bindings ?", now look who's grabbing their ski's, not to mention twin tips, wider ski's, rocker etc
