Replying to Best Idiot Skier Story.
I figured this deserved some props...
I was riding at breckenridge a few days ago, when i was behind this guy (most likely a texan), when i noticed something interesting about his look p12 bindings. He was clicked in, but the heel pieces were still horizontal, not vertical like they should be. So a after closer look, i saw that the idiot had about half an inch of snow under his boot. So i approached him and told him before he got on the lift ( so his ski wouldnt fall off and nail someone below). As the expected texan, "Theyre fine KIDDDDD." So i backed off and he got on the lift. So we got up the hill, he got off the lift, and i went over and explained to him, and showed him ( on my bindings) how they should be. Again, he told me they were clicked in fine. About 10 seconds later, he heads down the hill, hits a small knoll of snow, and both skis explode off his feet... and he slides 100 feet on his face.
I was laughing histerically, although he didnt think it was that funny.
Thats my idiot story for the year (with more surely to come)... whats yours?
