BOSTON — Skiing on the streets of Boston? It might sound crazy and it certainly looks pretty crazy, but two New Englanders say they're ok with being crazy for doing it.

Who could forget Boston’s record snowfall last year? Well these two guys took advantage in a way you've probably never seen. Cam Riley and Clayton Vila, the two pro skiers now getting nationwide recognition for an excerpt from their full length documentary “For Lack of Better."
"We've done a lot more traditional skiing in the past, competitions or powder, but these days we focus on doing this kind of stuff, this street skiing stuff.”
Crazier yet, these guys say they're not the only ones doing these stunts; there's actually a bit of an underground culture to it. Riley and Vila say many of the stunts are done at night when they say police don’t get in the way as much
"We’ve had a lot of issues with various police officers and stuff but at the end of the day they realize we're not ill intentioned, we're just trying to do some skiing and do something creative with our time.”
