I think that that was a reference to feeling your body cut through
powder that comes up past the waist.

90 MPH is pretty f'ing over the top btw

It's kinda like dryed out sugar or styrofome.
But a blast to ski.....

Yea JD, 90 was an exaggeration, I was however clocked at 81 mph on the grommers Wednesday.
I'm not sure how accurate the phone app is, but I hear it's close.

Hip draggin' - just a fast, layed-out turn where your hip almost drags on the snow.

I never dragged a hip on my skiboards but I'm real sure I hit 80mph more than once. It's even more fun doing it in the trees! Good times!
