So I went skiing today for the first time at the local hill.  Now I realize that snowboarders have to sit down, but what is with them forming a virtual wall at the top of lifts?  The run will be like 20 feet across and they will be in a line blocking all but like 2 feet of the run!!

my only real beef with snowboarders is that they venture into the park before they are ready because they are on a snowboard and therefore must go into the park.

Thats just the n00b boarders anyone who is half decent can ride away from the lift with only one foot in and do it up further down the hill away from the crowds

In my opinion afterbang looks like shit no matter who does it.  I'm pretty sure afterbang started as a joke and I really wish it would have stayed that way.

Boarders are sick. I think the people you're refering to, are the shitty gapers who have yet to learn mountain ettiquette. You just got to ask them too move. That is how they learn, and don't be a dick because you were there at one point too.

But since we are on the topic. Does anybody else hate when your skiing down a crowded run and you pull up beside or get forced to pass an avg to gaper boarder on their heel side and because they aren't looking they fuckin unpredictably turn right into you. Then that person yells at you for making them fall when they are cleary at fault for not looking before they turn. That is one of my biggest gaper pet peeve on the mountain (right after people standing on the low side of knuckles, or having a tea party on the landing in a jump line)!

seems like some good logic :)

Im not trying to stereo type here, im speaking from personal experiences, i really dont fucking get why the majority of the snowboarder at the hills i ride all have to go into the park, hit a rail hike it, do up there bindings and just sit there staring at it for the next 30 minutes. Or i constantly see groups of borders who just chill in the lodge all day, theyll go out for maybe one run but everytime i come into the lodge to grap something quick res assured there standing there all steezed out, clearly havnt taken any runs yet but theyve been there for 5 hours.

Before i get hate for stereo typing, again im not, im discussing my personal experiences, im not saying ALL boarders are like this im saying quite a few are. Also i have two skier friend and 6 border friends so no hate here

I can't tell, are these girls doing the annoying "just slide down the entire run"?

Someone with photoshop should put a caption over the girl in red, something like

"ummm, dang my underarm stank smells good today"

First off, don't bitch for one second about snowboarders in the park, if it weren't for them, you'd all be doing the same shit your parents did. 'Freestyle' progression is attributed to snowboarders.

Second, don't complain about shitty snowboarders in the park, there's terrible people everywhere deal with it. If you wanna start playing the 'snowboarders shouldn't be in the park unless they know etiquette..' bullshit, watch.

Finally, everyone dressed up like a thug is a douche, especially skiers though. You fucking ski. You ARENT hard, at all. The fact that you're not a thug if you snowboard is even greater when some skier tries to pull off the same shit, you all look like dumbasses.

Really the question is WTF is wrong with gapers. ya they are trying to learn but really..? stay the fuck out of the park. i have seen little skiers and boarders rape the lip on jumps and shit and its really weak. they should get yelled at cause they are wrecking all the good shit, but they have no idea. as far as afterbang and steezed out shit goes, people can do whatever they want sometimes it looks sick sometimes it doesnt, whatever.

All my friends snowboard and its annoying waiting for them to snap in.   But snowboarding is the flavor of the hills for now.   We just have to ride harder and show them skiing is more technical.   Anyone who bashes snowboarders is an amateur, nothing else. 

If a boarder is in your way ask them to move, most of the time they will no questions asked.

Skiing has progressed a lot over the last ten years.   I stopped skiing the 2000 season due to commitment to other sports and to see the progression to now was amazing.  The funny thing is Travis Rice got me back interested because of his movie THATS IT, THATS ALL.   Seeing what he could do made me want to see what was possible on skis.  

Let our ridding show that skiing is back and let our passion show the way of the future of this sport and let the rivalry shit go.   We all ride the same mountains why should we fight over them.
