the wussy version? do you have any idea how hard it is to do those moguls? I can guaruntee you if you tried one run down a mogul field like that, going half as fast as they do you would fall within the first 3 feet and not be able to stop until you got to the bottom. It take rediculous amounts of strength to do what they do, even though it looks easy.
