Athletes that compete in aerials do the most difficult gymnastic manoeuvres in any sport. They can twist up to five times and flip up to three times while travelling 40mph and 20 metres into the air. Mogul skiers cover a 230-metre course in about 25 seconds, which equates to roughly four moguls a second.
