What are the best games you've found in this genre? I feel like it's a niche genre and I don't know why because the games are generally awesome (I guess it's because there's no violence, which is what sells). 1080, SSX, etc are amazing.
It's also interesting that developers always seem to choose snowboarding over skiing. The only skiing games I know of are that Wii game WeSki, and the old NES game Slalom. Does anyone know of a really good skiing game? Or a snowboarding game besides 1080, SSX, Transworld Snowboarding, Snowboard Kids, or the Amped series?
Sidenote but I feel like this genre is ripe for a VR game. A heliskiing game where you could do tricks would be insane.

Turns out finding a version that plays in-browser is *weirdly tough*, every version is missing something or another.

SSJN - That game looks cool, I'm going to download that ASAP. Have you played it?
YellerDog - I forgot about that one. More fun that the screenshot lets on!
I like the SSX series, and the original 1080.
That Val D'Isere game ran too fast for my own good.
Steep Slope Sliders->1080->SSX Tricky->Amped 3.
Nothing has topped Amped 3.
I never had SSS, heard good things about it back in the day. I agree with SSJN, Val D'Isere is too fast, it is more of a racing game than a snowboarding game.
