The term terminal velocity was chosen by Harald and I think it is apt for the way he uses it. Essentially he is talking about doing SRT's on steeper terrain where the skier will gain speed for the first several turns and from there as long as the turns stay constant and at this same radius, the skier will no longer gain speed, hence hitting "terminal velocity".
