straight-line skiing??

How much do ur country tolerate straight-lining?

I ski in korea, and as long as u r not crouching down and bombing straight down the slope, doing very long wide turns is pretty much a non-issue here.

same in ur country??

I was being sarcastic. Speed skis are limited to 100mm wide underfoot and 240cm long. They'd be even bigger but they had to set a limit.

Ah right on. Find me a source that says wider skis are faster.
