that's not so bad... at least he knew such a thing existed. and of course there is the ever popular:

"What's the deal with these 'shaped' skis?"

some skier did a real nice cork 5 at my hill and ski patrol went after him and flipped because apparently  inverted aerials are banned at this mountain.
I took my run 5 minutes later and he was still trying to explain off axis spins to the patroller
freaking ignorant.
another time they had this huge pile of snow(with a slope that kind of resembled a cliff) waiting to be groomed onto one of the runs and my friend climbed to the top was about to slay this little drop (it's southern PA.. we take what we can get)
the patrollers shut him down so fast, clipped his ticket and told him to ride the lift back down.
he went and complained to service desk and ended up getting another ticket

spark notes: I should be doing homework, you didn't miss anything important

so i'm buying stuff at a big and tall store right,
walk into the store, the guy gives me the most questionable look ever
him: so what are you lookin for(still with the wtf gaze)
me: oh some big stuff
him: uh i think we might be to big for you
me: you mean you have something over an 8xl tall?
him: (still looks at me like im retarded)
later on, tryin on some shit
me: yea, so i like the baggy stuff, cause it's like a style, and helps you move easier in the air
him: hmm...










him: why would you want big stuff??? to slow yourself down??

looked at my friend and laughed, walked out of the store

I always get this from snobby, rude, pushy kids when I am filming.

"So are you filming"
-Yeah, that's why I have a camera
"How much does that camera cost"
-A lot, I don't share that with people.
"Well why not"
-I just don't, it's my own business.

Then they proceed to think I am a dick.

a guy on snowblades, with his entire family next to him on snowblades, was up top at solitude looking across the way at some turns on the other side of the canyon, and he asked my roomate where the lift was to get over there, because he wanted to get some fresh pow.

fuckin exact same thing happened to me...it was funny stuff. except it was my school chaperone who was going on the skibus trip (I go to boarding school, skibus is the only way to get up there). we're not allowed to do inverts if we're going with the school, liability and all...
he was impressed but he was like "I'm gonna have to take your pass and send you back to the bus."
me: "are you serious, my head was NOT below my legs..."
him: "yeah but it's still dangerous"
me: "you realize I've been doing these all day...you filmed one"
him: "uhhhhhhh"
