Either this is your first season on the snow or, well we won’t go into that. 0 to 20 : Well done, you are in the positives, but are not quite high enough to be considered “Hard”. However your chances of not smashing yourself to a pulp look pretty good. 20 to 40 : Ah the harder core starts to emerge, a sterling effort. 40 to 70 : You are truly one of a rare breed, we salute you! 70+ : You are crazy, simple as that, the chances of you reaching 30 are slim. But yeah, you are as hard as they come. Lol we can calculate your score! Go back and do it yourself HUA!
