Ok so this is a bit of a rant, but here me out. So earlier this week i was at loon mtn for a day. I saw almost no one in the park that was a skier until like noon, i was going up the chair and saw a group of skiers standing at the top and decided i would try to catch up and sesh with them. So i get down to the park, and there still standing there, totally decked out in the newest gear, all had either this years armadas or this years publics. And all had either brand 'new siver, oakley, or helly hansen gear. And yes i imediatley assumed they were decent freeriders. So i ask if anyones gona hit up this TINY flat rail. No one sais anything so i just go and do switch on, 270 out. They stare at me like im god while i look up to see if anyones gona drop. One kid does, gets on the rail like there is a chair on it and hes gona sit in it, and his feet are literally touching eachother. He eats huge shit. Meanwhile all his freind start doing switch pizzas down the middle of the park, 2 of which colide get up and ski away as fast as possible.
The next day at waterville, almost the same thing happens, these kids were a little less decked out, and a little better at skiing, but still blew, and yes they all had this years skis, on kid i saw even had T halls. Somthing resebling what happened to the rail kid ar loon happened to them, but it was all of the kids instead of one, there jump of the side of the jump thats leading up to our uprail, and then continue to either come back down from the walride switch and eat shit catching an edge, air over the wallride withh WAYYY to much speed and be super backseat and fall on there back. Or just fall over the backside.
so all of these kids were strait up decked out, and older than me (im 14). And they all just sat around until someone half descent at skiing, did somthing, at which time they either felt intimidated or just felt they would look cool, gangster or steezy by skiing down all decked out and either eating shit or looking like gapers. Im not saying kids have to be good to ski park, you can be bad and ski park as long as your trying stuff, and or not being a nuissance to other riders / skiers. But i am saying i fucking hate it when kids are FULLY DECKED OUT and just stand around looking yes, i admit pretty dope because of there clothes, super misleading, and then blow at skiing, and dont try anything for the most part anyway (dont commit, dont try, or try for one reason and one reason only, to look cool.) this just strait up pisses me off.
thanks for reading my rant, feel free to hate, agree, coment intelectually or non intelectually give positive feed back, negative feedback, or whatever the hell else you want to say.
