The epic return of the thread that reminds us all of who the real gapers are...

Make sure to grab a white sequined glove while you're at it. Moonwalk back up the hill and throw in some MJ styled crotch grabs on the way down.

Not so much a quote, but a story....

My buddy married a Texan, and they came to town to visit last weekend. They went skiing on Monday I believe. The whole crew ended up a Breck. I guess they got to the base of peak 8 at 815. By 1045 they finally got all their rental gear and were ready to go skiing.

But oh no, the greens on peak 8 are too hard, so they had to get on the bus and go over to peak 9. They finally loaded the 6 pack on peak 9 at about 1115. After 1 run it was time for lunch, and 2 runs later on the 6 pack it was 2pm.

Good think it wasn't a powder day, but I would have been livid about the whole situation if I had had to sit through that shit show.

Whaddya think that gaper was saying later?

You mean the gaper that's probably ten times the skier that you are...

Even gaper tourists with texas plates driving the mnt passes in CO just to sightsee understand to pull off to the side every once in a while to let people who want to drive the speed limit go by. Down in the valley, people drive 5-10mph over the limit everywhere, but no, somewhere it is written in stone that LCC must always move at a snails pace. Passing one car might not get you home any quicker but if everyone drove the freaking speed limit my daily drive would be about 40% quicker I have to think. Utah drivers don't seem to understand the whole 'use the brakes when going straight not while turning' thing though, so instead of learning how to drive they just go really freaking slowly because thats 'safer'. It is also annoying as fuck to have to drive behind people that not only drive slowly but slow down through every turn, even uphill, instead of accelerating through them which is safer, a smoother ride, and less retarded.

fully agreed. not that it gets me home any quicker, but nothing is more annoying than driving behind the asshole in the fucking toyota tercel who feels the need to slow way the fuck down for every corner regardless of conditions. and it isn't just LCC. 95% of drivers in utah are borderline fucking retarded.

That's more accurate.

Please please please tell me you are joking, PLEASE. My digital sarcasm meter is already blown for the night.

Funny video... almost seemed intentionally gapic. But FWIW, where did you get the "Texans" thing? The way the narrator talks sounds more like he is a midwesterner and he said one of his partners was a local.

I just now decided that hicks on sleds are far cooler than the new breed of sled dogs aka dual douches

Just a story, but the other day saw a guy at the urinal while holding his precious old straight skis up with one hand while relieving himself. Genius or Gaper, you decide.

**PearlJam09** · 12-25-2011, 07:38 PM

Saw someone driving up I91 the other day with their box on backwards...

**Bi-ShredinalGuy** · 12-25-2011, 07:46 PM

I got yelled at by some gaper mom for "Giving her son dangerous ideas out on the hill"

I know a maggot who has his like that. He did it because it could only go on one side of his camper and the one he has only opens on one side.

Me, my wife and a friend are in line for the easy quad at the local bump. Full-on holiday WROD skiing is in effect.

Soccer Mom works her way through the line looking very anxious, clasping a snowboard to her chest. I see that she is making her way to go up with us, and start cringing inside. Fortunately, she has the presence of mind to ask the liftie:

"Do you put the board on here or at the top?"

Liftie: "You put it on down here and scoot on to the lift..."

Soccer Mom: "Oh..."

She looks more anxious. We move on. I have no idea what happened next.

**skinipenem** · 12-26-2011, 07:37 PM

^sounds like a great pick up line.

Guess mounted backwards isn't so bad anymore.

winner quote of the week. what were you doing, riding backwards?

**astralboy15** · 12-27-2011, 10:29 PM

Saw this over on yobeat, figured it was worthy. I'm still trying to figure out what's going on here. I guess the kids take their drops pretty seriously over in Illinois...

**djbooter** · 12-27-2011, 11:27 PM

Old english lady on chair at le grand montets

"let's get the rules straight. I don't want you knocking me off the chair at the top. Boarders always knock me off the chair and I've had my knees done 3 times. I promised myself I'd never ride with a boarder again"

We proceed to get off the chair and ride away without incident. I turn around and here is old lady stuck on the chair, by herself trying to get off, arms flailing, barely able to stand on her skis.

Yep. It's those "boarders" causing her problems. Not the fact that she can't ski.

Enjoy the pow over there!! Damn it.

Indeed.

I figure that is what the rest of us skiers that ski at actual mountains will be reduced to soon if we don't start getting some more snow. Just throwing out beat downs for no reason other than to keep ourselves entertained. The WROD is getting old.
