How old are you??

[Steepdeepnlong]

Old enough to respect those who are older.

Old enough to know that testosterone trash talk is mostly bullshit.

Old enough to know my limits, and how to push them.

Old enough not to give a shit what anybody thinks about me.

Old enough to make women feel like women.

HAH!

now that's the funniest post i've read in this entire thread.. I'd like to show some of you old guys up, we should meet at Squaw one day maybe I could show you guys around the mountain??

I'm serious

If your 19 or whatever you should be able to ski circles around 50 somethings.

I'm 36 and still try to fly off stuff within limits of stompage. But you should be able to out run me.

Rode skis with Tyrolia, Cubco and strap bindings as a kid. Owned an original Snurfer. My Tommy Sims Signature board is still in the quiver.

... but a lot of the old guys get mad at not spelling every word right seems like a waist of time to me ...

Since you asked, here is an answer:

Misspelling simple words is a sign of carelessness and inattention. Some older guys (20?!) have jobs or are involved in activities like mountaineering and backcountry skiing where sloppiness, inattention, and not giving a damn are just not tolerated.

Anyone too stupid or inattentive to know the difference between "waist" and "waste" is not someone I want belaying me or holding a beacon while I ski something dicey.

So. you know how if you delete a post it asks "reason for deleting post?"?.

I've always just skipped it but I just tried it.

It doesn't do fuck all if you fill it out, i was hoping for more i must admit.

Definitely a concise answer with much truth to it.

15 (actually, almost 16) years older than when you first read this thread!

Scary, eh?

But if you really wanna know...



Your real age is 70 minus the number of musicians you recognize playing at Coachella 2025

[Buzzworthy]

Hold on, let me get my glasses to read that small font.

[TBS]

^^^So true. I’m 59 by that metric. I didn’t recognize a single act after the second lines. And I had my reading glasses on!

When I click into bindings or straddle a mountain bike, my emotional age drops to 18.

[stealurface831]

makes me 54.

Old Mags are truly Amazing!

Last season I was lapping west face at Alta on a pretty sick powder day. High T was pretty f'd up and not many were going out to that face. Was pretty happy with my performance, I noticed I was keeping pace with 2 trollers and we kept crossing paths as we hit the entry each lap. When I skied with other mags, later on in that area, the Old Maggots were way faster then the Trollers i was pacing myself to!

keep it up you sickies, ya'll got some serious skills

Turns out the people who could see it didn't bother to tell you they could.


Also fomofo is on a roll with the necrobumps.
