Most embarrassing thing you've ever done skiing...

I was up at the mountain today and I was near the bottom where all the run-off is, skiing switch because that's the only way to make that shit fun. Because it's pretty easy terrain and I'm pretty good switch I was only really checking behind me every 5-10 seconds, and right under the lift I hit a slow sign dead on... flipped over it, bent my pole pretty much in half and ejected from one of my skis. Pretty epic haha.
Writing this I remembered another time over Christmas break. Me and my friend were skiing and saw these kids who had been cutting people off and making asses of themselves all day about to jump what had to be the stupidest cliff ever from the chair.. it was like two feet and there were all sorts of rocks and shit below it, so we started chanting "Jea jea jea jea!" at them really loud. We ski down to where they are and, as expected, they were still sitting around being idiots, so one of them challenged me to hit this little jib on the side of the trail. Given that we'd sort of been making fun of them, I decided to do something that was somewhat impressive, so I shoot a little bit more to the right than I should have so I could gap this log with one of the slowest, steeziest 180s I had ever pulled, but the problem was I went too far to the right, landed on this lip that I wasn't expecting, and ejected from both of my skis right in front of them.. sigh.

i was riding up to a table and wanted to throw a zero spin and i popped a bit to go switch but i caught my edge and fell right in front of the takeoff. the park is right next to the lift and it was a busy day at the park. i didnt ski switch much that day afterwards.

I was at the park a few days ago, there is this one looong up flat down box. I tried to 270 off the back of is and wiped out miserably, one of my skis ejected and of course it was the one with the broken brake. It started to go down the hill without me and I got up and tried to ski after it on one ski, then I wiped out again. Everyone on the chair was laughing at me while I was walking through 2 feet of snow down into the woods to find it. Luckily it caught on a tree not to deep into the woods. Bummer.

i threw a tailgrab into a mogul line (the landings created by moguls at my mtn. are steeper than the ones in to park, which is the worst park in PA.) so i held it for way to long and my tips caught and i did a dub eject, i got up to find my skis and they were like 30 feet back up the hill...

Was doing a battle ship box that i had done in front of guys a million times but this time i tride to tail butter it.
I got on fine but right when the up met the flat i caught my front edge and flipped over the box and ejected in one ski.
And as i was going up to get my other ski i slipped and fell again 5 or 10 feet down the slope.

we had a yard sesh last week and we set up an up rail that wasnt secured in the ground. Basically when i jumped on, my left ski went over and my right went under and i fell down with the setup.
