Non-freeskier in parks

Every day I go skiing, I see them: they go in the snowpark, go in front of you and cut you when you are going to hit a feature, hit the rail's jump on the side and fuck them up. I hate these people. First they have no respect for us (freeskiers) and dont understand that the jumps are not to hit them on the side but to hit them and than hit a rail or throw tricks in the airs... It pisses me so off when i'm going to try a new trick on a rail and someone just cut me and hit the side of the jump... I also hate when they stop on the landings and than you miss your trick and crash because you didnt want to hit them...

What do you think?

The problem is that many small stations in Quebec just don't give a fuck about their parks because most of the park skiers in Quebec just go at some big station like Tremblant or Avila.
That said, I truly hate those gapers for the reasons you said, even if sometimes they give me a good laugh!

I hate people like you that scream at the little 8 year olds that do cut you off and jump off to the side. Get over it.

If you just ask them to move they usually do, most little kids won't respond to MOVE THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY FAGGOT. As for getting cut off, its gunna happen deal with it

At winter park we have "dark territory" which consists of the two largest tables and a bunch of rails. To ski in dark territory, you have to buy a $20 pass which is good for the whole season. It is awesome when you get in there, no one is ever in there except those that really want to be in there. it sucks if you are only coming there for a day, but it's cool otherwise.

The words I used were maybe too strong. I don't scream at gapers but sometimes it's just too hard to ignore them. That said, it's sure they're having fun and I don't blame them for that.

 The people who air off the sides of jumps and turn down the landings and cut you off are having just as much fun if not more than you are. They are simply doing it differently. Let them.

yea, yea, theyll catch on someday. or maybe, theyll catch a fat edge in their head when they're gaping in a blind spot that only advanced riders should only be on.
I really get ticked off when gapers or just cruisers go through the park, or just the more advanced shit, partially because it is just annoying and it sometimes disrupts a run, but more importantly, it just isn't safe. If they want to learn to ride park, they should stick to features that pertain to their ability, and they can work up when they are ready for it. I hate the excuse that "everybody starts somewhere," because usually that is coming out of somebody who is hitting like a 40ft jump and they can barely turn on their skis or they can hardly stand on their board.
If somebody doesn't have the desire to ski park, and they just carve down the landings and the like, then why be in there? It just puts people at more risk (and risk is accepted to a degree, but neglegence such as that doesn't have to be tolerated).
At most parks, there are signs defining the purposes and essentially the park rules. If somebody cannot abide by that shit, than they have no fucking business being in there.

For the guy who said they should stay in areas that pertain to their skill level, not all places have seperate parks...

Anyways, before you try to stab the little shits with your poles, try to think back to when that was you airing off the sides of the jumps. We all came up through that, gotta learn somehow!

thats true, not all places dont. then again, im mostly speaking for the places i ride, which do have multiple levels.

and usually the best way to resolve anything is to just politely let somebody know whats up. some of them have a dick attitude and get super defensive, but usually a few kind words fixes things.

I know you can say that ''everybody starts somewhere''... but when i first started to try boxes, i was not wearing 300$ oakleys, bonefirer pants , armada skis and i was not showing off ... i was in a little red suit and i started on the BEGINNER snow park, where it is apropriate to start and not to disturb the people who are doing the jumps and rails... i also hate when people think their super duper cool and they think they have so much style and everything, and they come to the box and do a 50/50 or dont even hit a box and go down the hill like if they were professionals... off course style is one thing but you have to learn skiing before thinking of your style.

Since when does what clothes you wear dictate whether you can be good or not? You can't tell someone they can't go buy those clothes because there not good enough

i can see where this guy is coming from. it gets kinda bad in my park too. sometimes we get just random people ski down the park and cut people off. they don't hit anything and don't even have a remotely freeski ski. that gets to me sometimes. but if you see those little kids cutting off people and acting like idiots. how about stopping them next time you see them do it and explain to them that they are acting stupid and dangerous

Dude ppl arent comftorable hitting shit when ppl are standing around cuase ITS NOT SAFE. What a fucking ignorant comment to make. How can skiing even be fun if people are constantly getting hurt? I shouldnt have to adjust my ability to hit a feature so that somone standing on the landing doesnt get hit. Most the time the person hitting the setup ends up bailing out so that they dont hit the other person. And how the hell are you supposed to get better if somones in your way all the time? You should never hit something if your uncomftorable about it. And i dont know about you, but im uncomftorable with anyone being in my direct line when im hitting something.

To all the people saying "you have to start somewhere", I bet you've never had a concussion from hitting a kid, who he and his friends where hiking part of the landing to a 40 foot cheese wedge in a jump line, only so they could diagnoally ride down it to hit a "natuaral manula pad" with a fuckin log that was pulled out of the bush put on top of it.
