yesterday, sitting on the lift.. me and my friend overheard this conversation between a gaper and his friend. Havnt laughed that hard in a while.

Gaper-"My gape has been getting really cold latley, its like 5 degrees out"

Gaper Friend- "Yeah same here, so I started wearing a beanie under the helmet...its hard to get them under the rental ones though"

Gaper-"oh yeah thats a good Idea"

classic gaper spotting today: jeans and rental skis with the jeans bunched up at the top of his boots, sliding down a black run, which had been skied too many times into two icy chutes, on his butt and scrambling to get up but failing badly. I felt kind of bad laughing but I appreciated the slapstick humour.

ohh i remember one more

.we were hitting some basic rails in the low level park and some snowboarders were hitting the same features but sucking arse at it. i was learning 270s onto flat boxes, so nothing amazing, but this bunch of ~15 yr olds were watching everything and said something to the effect of how much more impressive the skiers were than the snowboarders even though theyre all in the "snowboard park"

In the lodge the other day, two friends waiting in line for rentals...

First guy: "Hey, what do these numbers mean on the rental form?"
Second guy: "I think it has to do with your skill level, but I always just circle 3 so that they give me the coolest skis."

Me: facepalm.jpg

On a lift last year I saw a rentals gaper take off his skis and slide down the 100% iced over moguls on his ass. Didnt take long till he was airing and getting smashed on the landings. Ended up getting flatboarded off the mountain.

i have had people ask me the what the function of a tall jacket is, why our pants hang so low, and why my poles are so short.

most of the time i flounder and have no answer for them, except for the poles thing



but the best gaper i had ever seen was a kid at killington the other day, moderately tall oakley jacket, splices, not at all baggy DC pants, and rental boots, skis, and poles. single tipped 130 rental skis.

he was in the park, 50-50'd a huge butter box, landed forward, then tried to shuffle or some shit and fell over as soon as he started going backwards.

i lol'd, 180ed-on, dub surface swap, 180ed-off the box, then dropped into the jump line.

Tourist kid to Tourist mom.

Kid: I'm trying to learn how to ski backwards so when I do a 180 I can actually land it.
Mom: What are you talking about? NO ONE can ski backwards, it's impossible.
