• When you\re freestyling for a gold medal…""Gravity only matters half the time
• One way to have a fair shot at winning the top prize for the freestyle skiing halfpipe:""Save some new moves for the sport\s Olympic debut
• Photographers have captured freestylers in the air so often...""You\d think the skiers never touched the snow
• The halfpipe for skiing and snowboarding has roots in skateboarding.""One skater\s ramp goes beyond typical backyard construction
