THAT WAS SUCH BULLSHIT. There were peopole there who saw it too. I think one was Noah?(orange goggles, black set up?)Sorry I if I got your name wrong, you and you crew are sick.
But my break broke when I under rotated a terrible 9 at the bottom of the jump at 7springs. My ski then flew off and was stopped by a 7springs employee. I skied down said "thansk so much" and he siad no more skiing till that is fixed. I said "I knwo sir I'll do it right away" then HE STARTED YELLING AT ME. ANd I said "sir I am agreeing with you why are you giving me an attitude" He responded with "don't be a wise ass" and he clipped my ticket. So then I was pissed but didn't raise my voice or swear at all. I said "come on man I was agreeing with you, why are you giving me such a hard time. My ski broke and I'm gunan get it fixed and I'm going home now" So then he was like "yea go home get out of hear" so I told him he was on a power trip. He then TOOOK MY ski and walked down to the head ticket office.
There at the ticket office he got some guy above him and I went up to that guy and calmly tried to explain my side of the story. This guy said "Just shut up" I responded with who the hell are you to tell me to shut up. I took my ski back and walked back towards the park to get the guys name. I ask the guy his name and he said "Captain Al" then he said "if I wasn't in uniform I would teach you a lesson" I said "sir are you threatening me?" He responded with "Damn right I am, do you even have a father?"
WHAT THE FUCK. I DIDN'T SWEAR, RAISE MY VOICE, OR EVEN DISAGEE WITH HIM. I JUST SAID YOU ARE ON A POWER TRIP. FUcking I filed a complaint with some guy high up there at 7springs so hopefully I get hookd up with a free pass or something, but damn that was bullshit. I love 7springs but Captain Al must die.

thats pretty b.a. ryan, like a month ago at okemo, we were walking to our cars, and walking up to the road from the chalet building, the parking/maintnence guys came haullllling in through the wrong entrence, almost running over all of us, marks, me, bruno, and some snowboard coaches. He skidded to a stop and we all just called him out, they were such assholes, i hate those guys. and they always go into our chalet bathroom leave shits in the toilet and dont flush!

I would never sue a mountain because I don't wanna take money away from the place I love most, ya kno? But if nothing happens I'm going to send the thread and threaten to get 10,000 strong emails to the presidents office a day till Captain Al is fired. I expect some help from you guys on that if it comes to it

I've noticed that lots of older dudes that work at ski areas treat younger rippers like shit. This is just a hypothesis, but I think the reason for this is because they are having trouble getting older and are simply jealous of said young rippers' youth. This story sounds like a very extreme case, but in my experience the best combatant to this problem is smiles and joyous ripping.

didnt read anything but the first post, but here's my two cents:
file a police report about "captain al" threatening you. that might help keep his ego in check.

the main problem is that We are a new age of skiers. Instead of tight suits and tight pants we wear pants a few sizes "too big" and basketball jerseys. We ski backwards and the old "guard" has their head so far up their asses that they don't realize that this is where the sport is going

one time at a-basin i ducked the rope on the side of the mini park because i had never been there and so i missed the entrance and the guy that was not instructing or ski patrol or park crew, just some crazy fuck, decided he was going to scream at me for like 10 minutes about how important it is to enter at the top of the park because i probably didnt know what it was doing and its important to read the signs at the front.
yet its chill for a bucnh of gapers to go off the sides of lips.

I hate the fucking "mountain host" that sits on the slope by slow signs and bitch you out for stuff. They arent even real patrollers and they all seem to be complete assholes.

see, what i do at liberty is not get a pass and \hike up tot the terrain park. then just hike and sometimes jump an open jbar. you cant get your pass clipped if you don't have one. anyways, isnt it true that most resorts don 't own the mountain, they just lease the land for 100 years or so and build stuff on it?

i like how lots of jackets and pants hide your pass pocket now. hook a key ring on a zipper pull and if they ask for your pass just say it must have fallen off the ring, give them a fake name, just have one planned out so you dont studder, and the whole time your pass is safe inside your gear

you know something? i really hate people of power at ski hills. they think they can clip my ticket for going in the bottom of the pipe when it wasnt open, after i vehimetly apologized? sure i broke a rule, but i didnt deserve to be called "a stupid little shit" in front of 50 people. i have never wanted to murder someone mor than that time but i held that shit in. im mad at the man.

Wow, I'm just now seeing this, but if someone tried to take my gear and started threating me and talking shit on my dad, I'd probably fucking cain him in the spine with a ski pole. That is total bullshit.
