    Angry Things to be learnt from jibbers

    Here's a few things that I learned about our sport on the lift with two 14 year old jibbers this week....

    1. Our sport is now aparently called 'raging'.... "Yeah brah, I was raging earlier over on Styx....dude, that girl rages pretty hard...dude, where do you want to go rage now?" (attn KD, you guys now need to rename your magazine 'Powder: the ragers magazine'

    2. Skis should be made without edges. "Dude, I hate it when you're like grinding a rail or like raging sideways and you catch your edge, they should seriously like take those things off."

    3. Straight skis are the future of skiing. "Dude brah, I hate how like my skis are like fat at the tip. They just need to like make them straight so they don't look so gay. Dude and your tips (reffering to his friends Head Mad Trix) are like square. That's so fucking gay."

    And all of this wisdom in just a 10 minute period.

    God, please save our sport from itself again....

    wouldn't it be crazy if we went back to 7' edgeless wooden planks because jibbers thought they were cool to rage on?
    For sure, you have to be lost to find a place that can't be found, elseways everyone would know where it was

    It's fascinating what you can learn on a high-speed quad ain't it.

    Skiing, where my mind is even if my body isn't.

    A few weeks ago I rode the lift up with a jibber. I told him my favorite place to ski is Whistler-Blackcomb. He responded with "Word is bond - plus Canadian girls have sweet pussies."
    Is this true?

    I think this has something to do with raging as well.

    I think just the Canadian chicks that are raging have the sweet pussies.

    Which, would bring about the need for wearing a cum rag while raging, I assume.

    You are definately going to need canadian pussy steeze if you want to rage. Not to be confused with canadian pussy steeze on the rag.

    I¡¦ll be the lone ranger to contradict here. If we were to ¡§save our sport¡¨ from jibbers, skiing, once again, would become the fastest declining sport since aggressive inline. When I started skiing 7 years ago there were barely any youth skiing at all. Everyone snowboarded, except me. In 20 years there would have been few skiers left. But then jibbing happened and rejuvenated the sport and made it attractive to youngens. Thus creating a new group of life long skiers to pass on skiing to their kids. Jibbers aren¡¦t all that bad.. A few examples

    1: You don¡¦t have to look gay to ski. I¡¦m not saying to dress like a snowboarder, or go out and buy the baggiest cloths you can find, but the 80¡¦s!? COME ON! I¡¦m ashamed of skiing during the 80¡¦s/early 90¡¦s. The clothing was so bad I don¡¦t know, I just don¡¦t know. Not to say I don¡¦t have any history, Schmidt, Plake, Hatrip, and Stump are defiantly ¡§the man¡¨ and we wouldn¡¦t be anywhere near where we are today without them.

    2: Most jibbers are older kids like me (19) who grew up skiing with their parents and became very proficient skiers at a young age. When they got bored, instead of switching to snowboarding, they started catching air on their skis, thus improving their balance and confidence in new scary situations. Most jibbers, contrary to popular belief are very good skiers. Are Tanner, Olsson, Auclair, and Duglas better skiers than Harrison, Law, Mch, and Krietler? No, but I bet they can ski your ass into the ground, and mine.

    3: Skis should have edges, you just rode with losers. Can¡¦t ski pipe without edges ƒº You shouldn¡¦t be hooking edges on rails unless you have no idea what you are doing.

    4: Jibber understand fatter is better, just look at all the new skis. Next year my jib sticks will be 90mm in the waist.

    5: You know you like it when someone busts any trick off a cliff, period.

    6: I can pull a switch 540, can you?

    Don¡¦t completely hate jibbing/jibbers until you try it and ski with some older= >16yrs people who do it. I know I have no real point, but don¡¦t all those words with the numbers look nice?

    Anyone want to come RAGE with us tommorow? Keystone A51, You'll see me,

    10 years from now, you will be saying: "I can't BELIEVE those geeky ski clothes in the early 2000's - baggy, all muted colors, and this talk about "jibbin" - How gay was that?"

    Hey BradyCU,
    Guess what man, I'm only 21 and I ski with kids who ride park and stuff too. I already own a pair of 90mm Jib sticks (Scratch BC's). You obviously missed the point of my post. I wasn't saying that all jibbers are mindless morons like these two kids were, but just making fun of the ones who are. I do think that our sport needs some saving though. It needs to come back into focus. Too many kids are focusing on tricks and shit and not taking the time to actually ski. Yeah, I can ride some park, but I can also ski a 45 degree slope, throw down a race carve and hit the bumps as well. All I'm trying to say is that there is a lot less younger kids actually ripping the steeps anymore. Most of them are being parkrats and doing nothing but jibbing. Yes, I think that jibbing did pull us out of the 90's period, but it was all done by guys like JP Auclair, Shane Szocs, Mike Douglas that can actually rip big stuff and are now bringing it to the big mountains, which I think is cool and necessary for progression.
