Replying to Skiers attitude
I have been reading posts, threads and other riders. I have come to notice a problem:attitude. I must say that peoples attitude has got to change on NS and on the hills.
I know that most people are playing the teenage "coolness" game by shit talking and using gangster talk. You know what I mean; the "Yo fucker" and "nigga" or "yo da fucking bitch". It may look cool to you,but I think it looks pretty stupid. The sport of skiing now looks stupid. Most members (mostly newbs) take pleasure of making themselves look stupid by trying to be cool.
Skiing is not a sport for rich stupid people.But, this is the image you are giving it.
Second point; insults on the ski hills.I am sick of getting laught at because I do moguls. Even in big air competitions I get laught at. I am not a bad rider. I know that there are always bad apples in every sport, but skiing seems to have too many.A lot of people get turned off from skiing because of this.
I help people learn how to jib and jump. I get a lot of respect and I make a lot of friends. This is what skiing is about;progression and friendship. I want to keep it that way and I hope you do too.
This whole thread that I have created is to make you realise how your attitude is destroying the sport. All I want from people is to grow up, watch what you say and how you say it. If everyone puts in an effort we will make skiing the sport everyone wants to do.So please people if you don't do it for you, do it for the bunnies.
thanks
