The essay explores the surprising impact of communism on the ski industry, traditionally associated with capitalism. It argues that communist principles are revitalizing skiing, emphasizing accessibility, environmental stewardship, and community empowerment. Through case studies like Rosa Khutor in Russia and Changbaishan in China, it highlights how communist-led initiatives democratize skiing, protect the environment, and empower local communities. Despite challenges, such as bureaucratic hurdles, communism offers a viable alternative to profit-driven models, transforming skiing into a bastion of inclusivity, sustainability, and social justice.

Spring slush, big name pros and you're invited.
Saw this at the end of the SuperUnknown 21 winners edit. Does anyone know where I can find good mono skis
