also one time at mad river i was skiing with some jibbers fro that area and we started to build a jump and we sorta looked like snow boarders without the skis on and the ski patrol asked us to leave (their mountain is skiers only) they didnt even care that we were skiers anymore they told us they didnt want the "freestyle shenanigans" at their resort)

that doesnt mean hes racist. the skis were probably out, just becasue the white family gets what they wanted doesnt mean shit. they didnt get the same skis the black guy asked for.

that had absolutely nothing to do with racism and everything to do with the mad river vibe... they are working really hard to make that place exactly like it was 50 years ago and i totally respect that. if you want to build a jump, ski at sugarbush.

my polish friend tends to yell n!gger a lot when hes skiing and on the chairlift, 2 years ago it got him in a sketchy situation. But he's polish so he still yells it everywhere he goes...

This isn't a issue of racism. The black guy prob asked for snowblades and the guy at the desk was homophobic and didn't want to service any gay people at the resort.

the only way we'll know if skiing is truly ghetto is if we open the papers and read "there has been a ski-by shooting"

ur examples of racism are awful. first off, the shop probably didnt have the skis or else the empolyee wouldve sold them, and the one about ski patrolers, thats just irrelevant, u were building a jump, all mtns will tell u to leave.

yep skiing seems to be one of the few prejudiced sports left, at least if the comments on this site are any indicator. congratulations guys we beat golf!

This one time, my friend threw sauce at a black skier with a fat albert jaket on. He got pretty pissed. But it wasn't rasict, he just does it to a lot of people.

trust me just cvause ur friends hate the cold doesnt mean all black people do. im black and i cant stand it when it is hot, i think that when it is 60 outside it is hot, if u havent noticed black people sweat alot so why would we like it to be hot, so we could swear more??
