how many of you ski alone on a regular basis? 50-75% of my time on the mountain is by myself because all my friends either cant afford it or are working etc. i dont really like it, i like to ski with people to push me but that hardly ever happens....on a side note, if your ever skiing mount snow and need someone to ride with drop me a line.

Sometimes i need to ski alone for a few runs if I'm havin a bad ski day. It clears my mind and gets me focused.

im usually alone, and almost always alone in the park. most of my friends are poser snowboarders, so it gives me someone to talk to on the lifts and on the nice runs and such, but i try and stay alone in the park because i get better that way.

I don't doubt this, because he asked me if i wanted to come over to his house and gerbil. I insisted that he come over to MY house, since the whole thing seemed weird. As a practical joke, i attached a bucket of water to the top of the door so that when he opened it, I beat him with a mannequin leg.'-Skydaddy

Skiing by yourself does suck sometimes but sometimes you hear some good stories on the lift ride. I ski alot at snow and killy. Dont be afraid to talk to people in a posse alot of times I'm happy to with someone I dont know.

My school is stacked with really retarded poser boarders..... seriously they brag and stuff but the only times i see them they are on their bum in the park.... it is hard to ski alone if you are in a ski club* but i usually end up doin it anyway, i chill with some cooler boarders at the beginning to get pumped up then ditch em cuz they dont do the park. Im trying to get more people in my school to ski but they all think it is neon snowsuits and turning back and forth again and again.
everythings cool...when its on skis

I ski alone when there is no cool at my mountain to ride with. Most of the people I know up there are immature and stupid, so I dont even bother to ride with them. Usually I go to the mountain, hop on the lift, take some runs, meet some people hopefully, and then go for the rest of the day. Of course, there are not many good skiers/boarders at my mountain, so usually I'm alone. Oh well, that's how life is on the East Coast. I really need to go West Coast. Or North. Just not fucking Virginia.
Life is simple: Eat, sleep, ski.

I probably ski alone about 33% per cent of the time. My buddies are too broke and drunk to make it out most of the time. It's alright though, you can ski wherever you want on the mountain, and you get tons of runs in. Lots of time to just be by yourself and reflect on shit. Sometimes talking to ignorant tourists on the lift sucks though.

I love skiing by myself. I get the music going, and can do anything I want to do. I'll usually meet people, hang out with them for a while, and then go back to riding by myself.

Although it can be fun sometimes to get a posse together, especially on powder days when you want to build a booter.

Eat. Sleep. Breathe. Ski.
