Ha ha funny thing im skiing with another Mom as well... Its just this damn "Husband" named thing that keeps fallowing, and no worries the powder sking is mostly flat and uneventfull green run sides. I wouldnt go and ruin some good ol delicious powder.
Maybe Mom is a coke addict in recovery?[/QUOTE]
Must be its the only reasonable explanation
Sigh. That's my biggest gaper quote this weekend so far.
I would love to live in the mountains but I can't afford to yet, so I work my "yuppie" job in SF and come up on the weekends. You can hate the way people act, but without weekend warriors your resorts wouldn't exist. You're welcome. Grow up.
So i'm not a fan of YDBs any more than the next guy, but if the majority of new money entering a ski town economy is from weekend warriors then i'd say you're pretty depedent on them. /hijack unless this warrants starting a new thread.
I dont know if i would call this a gaper move but it was quite interesting seeing a guy in line the other day with old school ski bindings (a leash, no brake) mounted to new obsetheds.
And i've got my own gaper move like powtario. A few years ago, i forgot that i had cranked the dins down over summer. I was out for the first or second run of the season and decided to pull a 3 off of a roller. Well i popped and spun pretty hard and both skis came off as soon as i started spinning. I managed to do the 3, but the skis stopped way back and my toes hit the run to create a big faceplant.
Today I managed to get my skis stuck in the Squaw tram turnstile. The bar on the turnstile came down between the brake pedal and the ski-pinning the tails of the skis to the floor. Fortunately I was wearing a helmet.
Oh, and thanks so much to the asshole who started kicking the skis--in the wrong direction--until I sent him to the other (empty) turnstile. He's a bigger gaper than I am.
Wow, hit a nerve eh?
You're well mistaken about what would happen w/o weekend warriors... at many hills. I can't speak to the poseurs who ski weekends because their "career" is more important than their skiing. Good luck climbing that corporate totem pole, striver. I'm sure your skiing flourishes while you do that.
As to who's the bigger gaper, you've defintely got the porn-star cock here. Keep swinging that plastic strap-on, weekend warrior!
this was a strange one.
riding the lift with an instructor and two young (maybe 5 or 6?) kids. as we pass by the mardi gras/ panty tree, kid says:
i once put scooby doo underwear on there
instructor: what? really
kid: yeah, i pooped my pants and my mom made me throw my underwear on the tree.
i busted up laughing at this point. wtf?
Nate, look around, its Minnesota invasion week in Montana. The Quotes should abound. Jr. said he rode the lift with lots of patriots today. I'll be out next Sunday or Monday. I'll pm. Maybe do a few laps and I'll buy a round.
How many calories are there in a handful of snow ???
While on the streets of Breck today, "where are the slopes?" I turned and pointed at the slopes that are directly above the town and visible from just about any point in town.
And yes, I know the best gaper quote you heard today was "While on the streets of Breck today..."
Since this came up earlier, Friday there was a dude with a GoPro on top of the Peak 8/Imperial boot pack, I asked him, is that thing on? Then I told him I was the best snowboarder on the mountain. how many points do I get?
Overheard at breakfast at a hotel;
" I love skiing powder...as long as it is packed powder"
Myself and Backscratcher were skinning in to Paradise Valley today via a cross country track for access. Both on 180-some thing Shoguns, and K2 Bakers.....one of them asked "are those snowblades?" lol. Maybe we were the gapers and she was some hard core that tours on 207's.....
i was going up peak chair at Whistler the other day with tons of fresh and one of the guys beside me points at the straight lines in the pow and says to his friends " that is too much work. The people cant even turn." He then points at the saddle (groomed blue) and says " thats a proper run, we'll go there"
"Will someone tell this guy that this is snow skiin' and not water skiin'" -some hillbilly on race skis to my buddy on EP Pros in the lift line at vail
