Morphology

freeskiing = freeski (transparent) = free + ski + ing

Adjectival use derives from the present-participle form of 'freeski' (free + ski), so 'relating to freeskiing' is directly inferable.

Etymology

Freeskiing comes from free ('without limits') plus skiing, so something described as freeskiing is made for the sport of doing tricks and jumps. This is why a freeskiing jacket or boot is for more movement and style on the hills.
