I was on the triple chair at Sunshine and wasn't paying attention...needles to say I got the tip of my old orange and yellow scratches on the top ramp..I could feel the ski loading up like crazy untl it sounded like a gunshot went off. My buddies were behind me and said that my ski shot off my boot and almost hit their chair! I jumped off the chair as it was going around the bull wheel..rocking one ski. Ski was alright other than the brake being busted. It was crazy.

this is off topicbut it reminded me of when i udes to snowboard.. i stood up and steped on my board.. and i slipped on itand fell back into the chair... and the shair started to go around so it could goo back down the hill and i smaked into the lil stick thin with my legs so that the llift would stop..then i had to jump down like 6 feet to get off of it..and i was turned around facing all of the people on the lift..it was quite embarrasing
