But there is no snow on goron mountain, since it's an active volcano. There is lava and hot gas coming out if it constantly.

I know. The first thing I thougt it was "Hey, skiing!" but then I remembered that there was no snow in Hyrule. Link will use his shield to slide over the surface of the mountain.

I edited the post you quoted and stated that there is lava and hot gas constanly comming off the mountain, so there would be no snow on it, since it would have melted even if it did snow.

Ask them, they bath in lava.
Remember Majora's Mask and how Gorons can go through lava no probs?

Plus they're rock monsters.

Easy to fix: after you get the Earth Cog you can play this minigame.

This minigame can be played after getting the Earth Cog, so that way Link slides over the hill, using the Cog to avoid getting burn by the lava.

I know that they are using shields, which are super slick and shiny  :P But I gotta wonder how well skiing goes over rock and sand. Somehow lava surfing seems more believable to me than rock skiing.  :huh:

On the matter of tunnels, I don't think it might be a good idea either. I don't know how often they will be and if they are mandatory parts and always the same for every contender. But I don't think I would like to be confronted with the black fades of entering and exiting the caves all the time. These transitions are also concentration breakers. Diverging paths on the other hand is a good idea as some paths can give you better opportunities and dangers than others.

There are not exactly tunnels. It can be some ramp that takes Link up, and allows him do better stunts. And lava surfing would be difficult, because the shield would get very hot, and will melt :P.

Well, anyway, this minigame can be played after getting the Earth Cog, so that way Link slides over the hill, using the Cog to avoid getting burn by the lava.

I'm not exactly sure why you asked such a question if you were just going to reply with a smart ass meme showing that you knew the answer already.

In any case, you could do something like have a Goron fill the ski area with oil or something so you can slide on it.

I didn't know, is just that if you answer me "they are gorons", I must answer with something like this. Anyway, the sand on the hill will make the player slide over the hill.

If your using a wodden shield it would wear down. I metal shield would kind of grip the sand.(Kind so it would be more affected by friction.) Plus a layer of sand on a volcano doen't make sense geologicaly.

I love the idea of a snowboarding thing like in TP!

Ideas:
Have a snowy part of goron mountain. There are volcanos with snow on them, just not when they're erupting.

Move this to Zora's Domain or the river, have Link water skiing/wakeboarding, or restrict it to the wooden shield (if we have it so you can use old shields after upgrading them) and have him go down rapids with rocks and stuff.

Wouldn't snowboarding be easier with the Metal Shield?
