Why Does Skiing Need to Search for Its Soul?

Resort skiing is the least natural of all the sports that take place in nature. — Why Does Skiing Need to Search for Its Soul?

Steve Casimiro, former editor of Powder Magazine, on the “soul of skiing”. “Of all the adventure sports, skiing is the most commercial, the most unified around amusement park-style playgrounds, the most populated by people who do it as a pastime, not a passion. Surfing, despite the fact that the surf industry is comprised mostly of brands that sell fashion, still feels soulful at its essence — searching seems redundant.”
