I get out to my mountain (hill) and realize i bring everything except my helmet. Conditions were awfully icy so the only fun thing to do would ski park and I fall at least once every run lots of times on my head so I figured it would be best not to go. Ever happen to anyone else forgotten skis, boots, gloves?

Forgot one pole once. I skied with one just for the heck of it. It was kind of weird because it threw me off, and I got a few funny looks, but nbd.

you could just mellow cruise? if you fall once a run mellow cruising then maybe its time to rethink sport choice.

went skiing with friends once, and one of them forgot their voucher for a free pass and realized this at the mountain and the parent who drove us there wanted to turn around and go home and forget all about it, but luckily he got his parents credit card # and we stayed would have been the worst day ever if we had left!

once i brought 2 different poles tho there 2 diff sizes so i just skiied w/o poles

This year I was a week in a small resort in France with lots of powder lines, short couloirs and bc potential.. My gf got sick on the 2nd day so I went alone.. She snowboards and doesnt like thight woods but last year I found some really fun lines so I was getting ready to go there, really psyched to go and find new stuff.. Our appartment was next to the lift so I got all my gear on inside jumped in the elevator, went outside and when I went around the corner I noticed I forgot my ski's and only got my poles.. I even waxed them the night before.. It was only 2 min back to the appartment but I really was like wtf am I doing..how can I forget the ski's I care about so much?

I always forget to take stuff out of my car when I get home, usually goggles or gloves.

My 2 friends seem to leave their passes behind a bit, changing outerwear and forget to take the pass with em. One of my friends forgot pants one day so rode in jeans, it was hilarious.
