damian 0 Posted February 16, 2003 Share Posted February 16, 2003 oh akibun, you had to ask. fattwins is correct. i find that on a snowboard in powder that if I turn too hard on my heel side the snow shoots up and hits me in the face. I think it happens to everyone, but because skiers face down the hill, they perhaps get it more. Link to post Share on other sites

Plucky 0 Posted February 22, 2003 Share Posted February 22, 2003 "Face Shots" are something that aspiring actors/actesses or models have taken to build a photo portfolio to give to agents. The agents then take them to potential clients looking for 'talent' to hire for their productions. In the ski/board industry, 'face shot' could have a double meaning or even different connotation. In the 'acting' industry it can too, often with the same consequence as in skiing - having a face full of..... nevermind. I'm even grossing myself out now.
