Funniest thing I've read at epic in a long time

The absence of Alpine races which include gunfire is clearly an oversight. Perhaps a super-duper-GS is in order, in which skiers pull out guns while speeding along at 50 mph or so, and plug away at passing speed-limit signs.

Guns with long barrels and full stocks (rifles, shotguns, etc.) would seem to interfere with the flexibility and freedom to make the sudden moves required for Alpine skiing, though. Or perhaps that is just a sign I'm not doing it right (skiing, that is).

A "pole-gun" might be developed ... which has the additional benefit of making poles useful and also harder to sit on on the chair (which is known to lead to head bonks).

WTF, way too much thought put into this.

from the same thread:

Here is a "WIN - WIN" situation. The Mountain could make a ton of money in the terrain park by puting in a "skeet" shoot.

You would holler "pull", a boarder would be released and BANG!

Just like duck hunting it would be only fair to "get em' in the air".

This looks easy to carry under a ski jacket. Slow ass gaper - get off the traverse! Blamm! Blamm!

[PrankMonkey]

lol, hooray for gapicskiers with senses of humor. best Idea I've heard all day.

And of course this one is great for clearing out long lift lines (pretty compact too - aka the Room Broom):

This brings an entirely new meaning to the phrase "pain train"

[DerJaeger]

This would be awesome!

You just need a submachine gun or short assault rifle on a tactical assault sling, which keeps the weapon across your chest in a position such that it's easy to grab and aim the weapon.

Sure, you'd have to ski without poles, or be a snowboarder. But think how much fun combat skiing competitions could be. Ok, sure, there might be a few casulties amongst the spectators, but that's a small price to pay for showing those Norwegiens who REALLY has the most extreme ski-related sport.

finally, an idea for a skiing video game that might actually be a hit.

[AfroMullet]

A new way to clear the high t?

Xover?

Looks like it's time for you to invest in a room broom.

"Dude, look at that line in the cafeteria."

"Nothin' a little phosphorus won't clear up."

Willy Pete, that should be put into use as somebody's handle.
