IF YOU CANT HIT THE FUCKING FEATURES STAY OUT OF THE FUCKING PARK! go learn in the kiddy park then move up, but dont just cruise through the park and jup off the side of rail takeoffs just so you can tell your friends you rode the park. (i am sure that i never did this and when i went in the "big" park that i could hit at least three of the features)

i hate racers in the park...i mean come on you are a racer...now im not great in the park...and i ussually only go into the big park once or twice a day...i saty in the smaller ones so i can learn more. but i was droppin into the pipe the other day....and i yell drop at the top of my lungs and go...and there is this group of racers...with a race coach standing on top of the pipe on the right and i dropped in from the left....so they obviously saw me and they must have heard me and this lil racer drops in as im hitting the right wall and almost takes me out....then im up his ass the whole way down and almost hit him like 5 more times.....i fucking hate like racer brats.

I really dont care if the gapers hit the side of the kickers, its just when they stand in the middle of the runway...i get sick of telling people to move, but i try to not be a dick about it..

yo so i notice this problem and it really pisses me off. so me bein an instructor i try to take matters into my own hands. and trust me i know and work with those fuckin instructors who jus take kids through the parks and dont teach em anything. ill take my kids through the park but when we get to the entrance before even goin in i teacfh em about waitin there turn, and yelling dropping. i also try to stress the point that rails are rails and not jumps, thats prolly my biggest pet peeve. more instructors need to do this shit. cause honestly if the instructors dont do it all the kids are gonna have to learn from their parents and that will jus be fuckin horrible. so trust their are some instructors out their tryin to do the right thing. ohh yea and im tryin to get a freeskier school started up at my mountain so kids learn these things. im prolly gonna need a petittion to be signed so ill post it up here anyone can sign it ill jus lye to my boss and say u ski at my mountain.

Everyone has to learn somehow, not all ski areas have a bunny park.

If the Gapers get in your way say "bite the knoll of the jump or a rail," and then you curb stomp them so their head explodes.

This little girl, maybe 4 or 5, was cruising through the park the other day. She was still at the age where you don't use poles. I thought, gaper for sure. She then rides strait on to the up down box, and makes it to the end. It was sick. But yeah, most gapers are stupid, but we were probably all one of them at one time.

...... I take kids in the park but I actually teach them to jib and go off the jump straight. And besides, every park skier had to start somewhere.

What I hate the most is when I'm at Mammoth in the park and they're just traversing across the kicker, or skiing so slow over the lip of the jump they kill the last 1/2 foot of tranny.
