Ive done a ton physical labor most my life and let me say that's just too darn labor intensive and tedious. No wonder our lift tickets are so expensive. I vote for dedicated mogul skiers to pay a surcharge and drop the price for the rest. Or just ski the runs with skier made bumps.

This is really interesting to see - because I've watched the creation of the course used to select the US national team at WP for three seasons now, and I can't recall our SnowCat driver "seeding" the moguls at all. If I'm recalling correctly he just sets the pitch, builds the tables, and then the athletes use stubby's to ski the moguls in the right spots.

Time to ask if we do any shoveling...

The Olympic and WC moguls are the select crop from Lake Tahoo after mogul breeding season. They are shipped world wide. As this is an Olympic year Korea got the best selection.
