hahah think so too.
tease
i do that too...... dont ask me why. i just like it
Hmm, ive got a couple, some are just habits that i have, others are kinda just things you do, no questions or explinations.
1. me (and most people i know) always click our poles together when passing on cat tracks, we started when we were racers and i just have always done it, ive seen gapers randomly take huge turns and take kiddos out.
2. NEVER get on chair 13, just dont. We used to have this chill race coach at bogus who was like 20 and he told us never to get on 13 when we were like twelve, and me and my friends have adopted that. I dont care how long the lines are, if we see 13 coming we either skip the chair or let people go.
3. poles always face forward, otherwise it just dont feel right.
4. Never "call" how much snow is gonna fall. If its snowing and your with your buddies, never be like i bet were getting 4 more inches, or anything like that, cause it stops snowing and never meets the goal. Just be happy its snowing i guess is the reason.
1. nothing like a good ole piss before dropping into a big line
2. Sometimes I'll just get these feelings like not to hit somethin, just negative vibes.
I'm from a pretty small park... when I was a little kid and the lifties called last run I would bet them I could race down and make it for one more. I usually got it too.
i usually end up missing the last chair and have to hike all the way back up to the parking lot.
pretty much the same as everyone else...NO calling last run
idk..i always shake all the snow off of my skis on the lift and i put my right ski on slowly and the left one on more faster lol i think that's juss me being weird
I never talk about the snow when it is snowing. When I was a kid my parents use to tell us that the sun would hide behind the clouds,and it would rain if we talked about it. I adapted the superstition to snow as I got older. I switch my skis every run if it involves hiking, gondola, tram, sled. I switch them every few runs if I'm riding the chair. I prefer if nobody notices me do it, so I try to be nonchalant about it.
before i drop in to hit a jump or rail or anything actually, i get the snow off my skis too.
