Replying to Done for the Year!
Wow, my hill is fucking gay...heres the story.
So we head there for the day, and we get up and the one good jump is all shitty, because of the slushy snow. Like bumps in the landing up to my knees, and a big hole in the middle of the take off. We get shovels and start cleaning the lip up, and raking out the landing.
A few minutes go by, and Jim Dickerson, the 50 year old 'risk manager' comes by. He comes up to us and is like 'who authorized you to shape this jump?'
I said somehting like 'We just fixing up the landing, we almost dies on it because of the bumps in the landi' He interrupts me and says 'Dont give me that lip, or you'll be done for the year!' Again, I said something like 'Im not mouthing off' Wherin he again interrupted me, saying the same thing. Right Now, were all pretty pissed, so we ski away minus 2 shovels which he had confescated.
Later in the day, we decide we want to work on flips, which by some retarded rule are 'illegal' at the hill. I've only done a few backflips in my life, they always seemed pretty unimpressive to me, so I never took intrest. After doing a few huge ones over the pipe (which we were trannying over like a table because it is so undervert), me and a few people get taken in and our passes are pulled for the day because of doing 'inverted aerials'. I replied with 'that pass pays for your dinner asshole' Nickerson made it seem like a crime, saying all this stuff about how I could be killed and shit. I asked for my shovel back, and he said somehting like: 'How about I DONT give you your shovel back, and I DONT charge you with 'endangerment,' 'defacement,' and 'destruction of private property'. I asked him how fixing up the jump (and making it safer)was all of that, and he gave me some bullshit comment.
I was pissed off even more now, because I was having an awesome day, and it was prolly my last few weekends anyways before camp because of the recent weather and general shittiness of my hill. I decide I want to do some final things, so I switch coats, hats, and goggles and go back out. I get halfway down one run before I am tapped on the shoulder and told to come inside. Dickerson asks for my pass, I told him he had taken it, and told me I was going to be arrested for 'theft of service' because I didnt have a pass. (keep in mind I'm only 15) He called my mom, who didnt give a shit about me doing flips, and instead bitched at the guy about what bullshit all this was, and he kept trying to persuade her otherwise.
Luckily, the security officer realized what an asshole this guy is, and got me out of most of it, but Im still gone for the season. I have no regrets really, and Im going back next weekend (not skiing) to piss the guy off. I hope he dies a horibble death. And I can tell you, I wont give them my business until he is fired
