Racers and the seth's

Every single time i have gotten on a chair with a racer and they comment my skis,(04-05 fujatives) they ALWAYS fucking say "are those the seth's"? I'm like "nah they are the fujatives". then they say soemthing like "oh man you should get the seths they fucking rip, i love em." But oddly enough, they don't know what they look like?

Seems like the only twins most racers know is the seths and the PE's. Kinda weird.

everyone asks what kind of skis i have, even when it says LINE in huge letters by the tips, then they dont believe me when i say that they are 182s, until im like they are centermoiunted, then they ask whats that, thankfully our hill is so small the lift is over by then!

yeah i know what you mean but the word line on your skis isn't that easy to read if you don't know what it says. and racers can be pretty stupid.

agreed. I think a lot of us, forget where skiing came from. Even "freestyle" evolved from the mogul skiing events.

I have mojo 80s, which is a different sort of graphic on each ski, and old people ask me all the time if they are the same ski. And then they are like "well, at least nobody will steal them, they couldn't tell they go together"

all the racers I know ski park just as much, they are actually the only good park skiers. I used to race, and I forrun a lot still(the fujis rip GS). The only part of racing I have a problem with is the coaches and the regulations, most of the racers are pretty chill though. after my races we wernt allowed to take the bibs off, and if we were seen w/out them we were DQd so I would change my jacket and goggles and go ski park. its my little way of sticking it to the man.

that happens at my mountain alot with the seth's. i think its because most racers are clueless faggots who only shop at the one shop that carries K2 as their only twintip brand. So they go shopping for their race skis there and uh oh! whats this? they need a twintip ski and whats the biggest baddest ski in the shop? pistols. i love how narrow minded they are.

last winter my brother and i were on the chair at PC with a family from boston. i was using my old pistols that day, and the dad goes, "hey, are those the fat boys?" my brother looks at him and goes, "yep, those are them. the big boys! fat boys!" the guy has no idea that were being sarcastic with him, and we proceed to have a nice conversation on how well my "fat boys" work in and out of the pow, groomers etc. he was nice.

twins are superior yes. but watch about carving racers- they ski crappy rock hard conditions on purpose and they can slice mean turns out of that boilerplate- take a good racer onto some actual good terrain and most times they can rip it up better than 90% of the little bitches that spend all day in the park.

even at places like alta, where there are a shitload of harcore pow skiers, i was told that my seths looked like two snowboards...it was rather amusing.

I was on the chair with some old guy and he commented on how nice my armadas were and how he might buy some.

thats odd because 90% of the people at alta have skis just as wide or wider than seths. and seths arent even that wide sooo

i just think racing takes up to much space. then they come into the park in there tight ass suit things, and wreck everything.

very true, alpine racing is a very difficult sport, and an aspect that is very important to skiing. most freestyle skiers that are pros today started out racing. i myself chose not to race, but thats my choice.
