Why I hate newschool

This sport is becoming ridiculous. I need a ski thats more center mounted. I need a ski thats 15% stiffer. I need a new oakley outfit. Are these bindings light enough so that I'll be able to spin 1440s?
I had a pair of skogens missing a total of 18 inchs of edge under both boots. after two season on them I got a pair of used of 1080s, from the first season they were made. and I still am better then at least 75% of the people skiing on twins, and thats not saying much.
People piss me off, somehow they rationalize that if they get new skis that are better they amazingly get better, guess what a ski wouldn't make a difference on how good your are.
And skiing is a fucking fashion show, sure I expected that from yuppies, thats their thing. But fuck, you don't need new clothing every year to make up for the fact that you suck on the mountain. Im skiing in the spring in dickies coveralls, because it will probably piss other people off. ok, Im done w/ my rant

dude chill....new shit is cool and i dont know how you can dog it. did something happen to you?...did somebody touch you? who gives a shit...there are posers in every sport that always have the new shit...nothing you can do about it. if it really bothers you then dont ski. who cares what others wear and ski on? i know i dont. if your good your good and thats all there is to it. if you suck then you suck...so be it, but hey if i sucked i would buy cool new shit too. the sport hasnt become a fashion...at least where i ski (CO,VT,CA), but hey maybe you ski aspen too much.

what kinda clothes do u wear, do u wear a big neon suit?? do you buy what you think looks cool?? or do u just come onto forums and bitch about stuff you probably partake in, and who cares what kinda skis everyone rides on, thats there own damn business and if u are just skiing around checking out other peoples skis, then u need to get the fuck off the mtn cause you are just doing exactly what u complain about other people

Being Irish, I guess I should resent the Notre Dame nickname 'The Fighting Irish.' After all, how long do you think nicknames like 'The Bargaining Jews' or 'The Murdering Italians' would last? Only the Ironic Irish could be so naively honset. I get the feeling that Notre Dame came real close to naming itself 'The Fuckin Drunken, Thick-Skulled, Brawling, Short-Dicked Irish'

so what you're saying is, even though I saved up for weeks and worked hard to get my new skis and my new coat, just because I'm not a very good skier I don't deserve to have them?

cool, thanks for helping me waste 2 and half minutes of my life reading that toss

the kid who started this thread should be shot in the head. first of all, what skis and clothes a person wear have nothing to do with how good a person skis. that goes without question...basically what you are saying is that people who suck are the people wearin nice clothes and rockin hot skis while the people that are good ski in their overalls...shut the fuck up you fucking cunt! are you sayin that if you are a good skier you should go out and invest in a used, one-piece, neon purple, jump suit and a pair of wooden skis made back in 1946?!?! fag

wtf. I got new skis, new bindings, a new coat, helmet, gloves, and poles this year. Why? not because I think it'll make me better. It's because i've outgrown all my stuff. dude, last year i was skiing on a pair or skis a foot shorter than me, plastic core, dynastar speeds. five years ago when my dad got them for me, they were like 100 bucks. It's not the equipment that makes you good, it's you, and everyone knows that. Stop ranting

WA skiers are cool. I'm a WA skier. I'm cool. You know, Washington apples are cool too. . .

If you hate newschool, get rid of your 1080s and get some straight 210cm long skis.

I agree with the people above and i'm gonna have to add that new equipement does make you better. Why do you think pros have progressed so much? Yeah there practicing more but there is only so much time you can practice. Watch Plakes seg in ski movie, it sucks compare to every one elses. Why, it is the last year he skied on his 88 k2s. This doesn't mean you have to buy new skis every year but there comes a point where new skis will significantly improve a model that is a few years old.

Why do you care what other people have? Maybe people want new skis because there old stuff fell apart or got too small. Even if they did get new gear just because its new, you shouldn't care. Stop being so fucking whiney and go ski you pussy!

Hey dude chill out and pull that stick out of your ass!!!

Yes there are posers out there riding scratchs and wearing a full oakley set up (pants, jacket, goggles and glove) But at the same time everyone knows what your ride doesn't affect how good a rider you are.

The demand for oakley gear and all the hype about the latest skis is proof that this sport is getting bigger and more popular.

So laybay and stay true to the movement - and next time you see that poser go up to him and say 'sup so what kind of tricks you pulling dude, ya sick set up - act like a poser. Then make him hit the jump/rail and watch him get broke. Then you can go up to him and say, you ain't shit peckerwood just a little rich boy playing ski poser!!'

yah VC you shouldn't really care about it, if someone loves the sport enough to go out and spend all their money on new gear, thats cool. If I see some 15 year old kid who has worked an entire summer to afford some new skis and some new ski clothes, but he still what is worng with that?.. he jsut loves skiing and in a way thats how he/ she expresses it. Although I do agree with you in the most extreme of cases. Sometimes in whistler you'll see extremely wealthy tourists (most commonly japanese, no offense) come for a week long trip to try out skiing for their first time, and they will go to the vilage with thier hge wallets full of cash and spend thousands of dollars BUYING , not renting, buying a complete new stup of the best gear and the most expensive clothes, only to leave it all in their hotel room at the end of their week long vacation. That seems kind of wasteful and stupid, but hey.. it makes for cheap used gear I guess.

no one has looked at it from the rich kids perspective. not saying that is me, but does that mean that rich kids can't get new stuff because there parents earn more money than yours? does that make them less of a person? or the kid who saved up for a year? is he wrong too?


when hell freezes over, I will ski there too

Try wrapping yourself in polythene cling film and goose fat.


works wonders and saves money (not geese though)



Bawb, I can trace this wanting for abuse back to your childhood i see it all the time. See growing up you had two dads, whereas everyone else you knew had a dad and a mom. This put you in the 'outsider' catagory right off the bat. Some of your earliet memories were bad sounds coming from your parents bedroom. The crack of leather whips and chains echoed through the hall of your mobile home. One day when you braved the nerve to open the door to this room of horror. You opend the door and saw both of you your dads with their mustaches where they didn't belong. Since that moment in your life you have craved abuse, someone that could beat those memories out of your little head. - Dr Von ReefSideRider

You shouldn't get so mad about people that suck having good shit. It's the infulance that snowboarding has on our sport. If you nothice snowboarders, a lot of them that suck have good shit. As much as we don't like to think so snowboarding has done great things for skiing. It's just somthing that we can't do anything about so we just gotta deal with it
