Replying to WSSF Gripes
I have a bunch of issues that i think should be voiced over the ever expanding WSSF. I assume most will disagree with this but I think you shoulld all hear it anyways:
The WSSF makes it hard for me to get around an already over crowded and comercialized mountain. The huge crowdes of barnies there to see 'skiing's future' take up all the damn parking spaces (even my secret one's) and the lift lines fill up.
the 'mcdonalds' rail jam thing frankly is pathetic. hey mcdonalds stay out of my god damn face with your money grab death spiral advertising. I am truly disturbed at the huge amount of growing corporate sponsorship in ski events. $$ to make things happen can come from other sources than damn mcdonalds who dosen't give a hoot about what we are doing obviously at all then just want to sell us GM beef and GM tomatoes.
On that note I won't even go into the olympics and the future death of whistler which every year becomes more evident to me. hence the flight to fernie of the original folks who build it anyway.
