To freepounds something is to steal it, because it costs "free pounds". However, freepoundsed items are rarely particularly useful or expensive, and should ideally raise a laugh if pilfered. Cans of food, small novelty toys, or blocks of cheese may be typically freepoundsed. Jewellery can not be freepounds traditionally (unless it's shit) as always remember that "if it's less than three pounds, it can be freepoundsed."
"Hey look, I freepoundsed these olives".
"Stand in front of my handbag, I'm going to freepounds that starfruit".

Get the fremps mug.A relatively recent (since 1988) evolution of the sport of skiing. While traditional skiing - which is what most people think of when they hear the word "skiing" - focuses on strict disciplines like racing, freestyle moguls, etc, freeskiing allows room for creativity, personal expression, and style. The two main categories of freeskiing are big-mountain skiing and park/newschool skiing, although most freeskiers do both to some extent.
Big-mountain skiing developed from "extreme skiing" in the late '80s to early '90s. As the name implies, it involves descending large, steep mountain faces at high speeds, and it is usually done in the backcountry on ungroomed snow (often powder). Any line at all can be taken down the mountain, and skiers often air off of cliffs, windlips, spines, etc. It is not about competing or trying to race to the bottom. It's about creativity, having fun, and enjoying the snow.
Newschool skiing is done in terrain parks at ski resorts. Largely inspired by freestyle snowboarding, it involves doing tricks, hitting jumps, sliding rails, jibbing, and skiing halfpipe. It is becoming increasingly popular among youth, and many people are pushing to have halfpipe skiing included in the 2010 winter olympics, which would do a lot for legitimizing freeskiing.
Most people still think of conservative, nerdy golfers when they think of skiing, because freeskiing has not had a lot of mainstream exposure. these are the same people who still believe in the feud between skiers and snowboarders (which no longer exists), with snowboarders being the irreverent youth and skiers being the elitist pricks on sticks. This stereotype is outdated, and soon the rest of the world will catch on to that.

Snowboarder: Hey, man, what's that skier doing? he's shredding pow and doing tricks 'n shit. He's such a douchebag, pretending to be a snowboarder.
Other Snowboarder: Educate yourself, bro. He's a freeskier. That's his sport.
Snowboarder: Oh. I totally understand now. I totally respect his sport, 'n shit.
Freeskier: Cool. I respect snowboarding because it's done so much for freeskiing, 'n shit.
Other Freeskier: Let's all go ski and ride and get high 'n shit.
All: Ok.

Get the freeskiing mug.The music first developed in the early 1980's primarily in major cities like the New York, Philadelphia, and New Jersey area of the Eastern United States of America. It was a fusion of 70's disco and 80's breakdancing music, influenced also by sampling found in Hip-Hop. The genre can be further subdivided into Old Schooland New School. Old school was generally made before 1991.
FreeStyle music in general is heavily influenced by Latin music, especially with respect to rhythms and brass/horn and keyboard parts. The latin "clave" rhythm can be felt in many songs. The tempo of FreeStyle music is almost always between 110 and 130 BPM (Beats Per Minute), typically around 118 BPM. The keyboard parts are often elegant and clever, with many short melodies and countermelodies. Again a strong influence of latin music.
The electro funk sound was changed and refined adding Latin American rhythms and a totally syncopated drum sound. That was definitely a reason why the style came to be very popular among Latinas as well as Italian Americans. Hence, the names "Latin Hip Hop" or "Latin Freestyle". Now, the more neutral term "Freestyle" is generally preferred.
The theme of the lyrics is usually romantic with a positive message. The topics developed so far have not been overly complex, and are based more on a purely emotional response.
