How do I say 'mogul' in Chinese? By 'mogul' I mean the small bumps or mounds of snow found on a ski slope. I found mogul listed in one dictionary as 隆起部分, which seems to simply mean 'bumpy section', is this really the correct way to say it? In English I can say "He likes to ski moguls." or also "He likes to mogul ski." How would I say something similar in 中文? 谢谢!

It seems to be called 猫跳滑雪 "cat jumping skiing". (Chinese never ceases to delight me!) The moguls themselves are called 雪包. Here's a good basic article to get vocabulary about this sport out of. http://baike.baidu.com/view/9963483.htm

"bumpy section" means "凹凸不平的(路)". " ski moguls" is a professional word in skiing, we call it "猫跳miao1 tiao4",because you like a jumping cat when you ski moguls. This skill asks for flexibility and agility.
