    Question Calling yourself out?

    Is it vain to go CAW CAW CAW yourself while dropping into the steep and deep?

    I found myself doing it last year after riding first chair and after my first faceshot I couldn't help but to call myself out to all that were still on the chair.

    PS I've been calling out the sickbird freestylers during comps while riding the chair. Spectator/gaypers don't know what to think when you're yelling....

    If you were in New England everyone would be wondering where the car is.

    What if you just can't help doing it to get people to look at you even though the chair is empty?

    You really need to stop that. It's unseemly.

    Making loud noises is such an unsubtle way to call yourself out for people on the chair. All you really need is a pair of circa 1990 Oakley sunglasses, some extra-fancy pole planting technique and "I'm too sexy for my cat" on the iPod.
    I can't understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I'm frightened of the old ones.

    I'll have to try out all of these calling out methods, and then some!

    I did it because I was stoked and couldn't contain it to myself. I then thought of how that must have looked from the chair and I felt like a tool.

    That's why I asked the question. I hate riding under the lift, but I love looking at my tracks.

    Buster, pay attention. You just have to use your "A Tool."

    Whatever that is.
    It's idomatic, beatch.

    It sucks though when you have a really great wipeout and no one even sees it.

    Shepherd, next time remember that God sees everything and is most certainly laughing his ass off!

    I love making annoying noises off of the chairlift. No sarcasm, seriously! It throws the people off who care that people are watching them, and stokes those that don't.

    Not much difference between "Caw"-ing and laughing semi-hysterically, which I do.

    i often find myself making strange sounds, "whoop"s, "yeeahhh"'s, etc out loud when skiing, riding, etc, from sheer joy. just yesterday, ripping a sweet section of single track on "Hole in the Ground" trail in Tahoe, I was whooping out loud and laughing out loud...so, no big deal, I think, about the "CAW", just means yer stoked!

    For the record, I do not do that unless the doctor orders me too.
