A buddy and I got on the gondola at Snowmass in our park attire and were asked by an older couple, "You are obviously snowboarders, why are you skiing?" It took us a solid 5 minutes to come up with an answer that didn't involve the word "retarded.." These two had no idea that skiers were even allowed in the park

something about finding a Chad at Alta. I told him to pee in his butt and went on my way.




I'm lying, that never happened. :(

Where do i start,
Why is your coat so long?
You ski? Freeskiiing? What's that? Do you ski with one ski?
Why are your pants so baggy?
What's wrong with your boots (full tilt with tongue out, not put on yet)?
Why do u sit on your skis instead of race tuck?
Don't the rails hurt your skis?
Why are the tips of your skis turned up?
Are you as good as Shaun White?
Don't the tow ropes destroy your gloves? *yes* Then why do you use them?
Why are your poles so short? *THE RENTAL DEPARTMENT IS OVER THERE, TELL THEM YOU WANT POLES THAT FIT
Isn't skiing backwards dangerous?

"Yeah we do."
"OMG! Thats crazy you guys are nuts. Seriously, if I hit one of those jumps i'd break my neck or something."
She actually refered to them as jumper thingies. Wtf.

Some filthy rich looking couple visiting lake placid got on the gondola with my friend and I at Whiteface. They weren't even there to ski, just taking the gondola up to see the veiw. I had my skis next to me in the gondola and the woman asked us completely seriously "You two are are going to go down the mountain?" *Uhm... yeah?* "Why would you do that?" *Because we're skiing*
