A little browser game inspired by classics like SkiFree—ski down a slalom course, dodge trees, and outrun a yeti! It’s made with vanilla HTML5, CSS, and JS, no frameworks. Use arrow keys to steer, F to boost speed, and aim for slalom gates to rack up points. High scores are saved locally.

Awesome Once I got the hang of it, the controls (on my touch screen) are better than the originals that used a D-pad.

As an aside, How are the majority of skiers on the mountain able to against our skiers direction of travel?

Good question - this is updated now so all skiers move in the same direction.
