What the fuck, is this thread about snapchat or broken ski stories?

Once my skis snapped and they were broke... Kinda like tanners ankles

I once saw a lady fall going down a flat trail and snap a pair of rental skis. She was probably 400 pound.

Wind gust took my speed, as I was coming out of a cork 7 my skis caught the knuckle and one snapped.

One of my mates broke his ski from under rotating a front-flip and then snapped it doing a back flip. he proceeded to ski on them for the rest of the day and threw a 360, landed to far back seat and snapped the other one.
here is a video of him breaking the first one on a backy.

When I was 8 I was on this hill in a farmers field on one of those plastic Wal-Mart snowboards. I went down the hill and it snapped in the middle and I managed to cut my hand on it. That wasn't a pretty sight.

My skis hooked on a blind surface switch and one of them hit the support of the rail and snapped... two weeks later i bought another pair of skis, which i used into the summer. Then on my last run at windells, i overshot a cork five and tumbled a little bit and when i got up not one but both skis had snapped in the same spot.

I thought there was a snow lip onto this little rock and I thought cool a little jib. Turned out it was soft as fuck and I slammed straight into a rock double ejected and snapped my TC

Not me, but my dad was skiing backcountry in super low visibility, thinks he hit a rock and went over a decent ledge/cliff but when he woke up, his ski was in two and one of the halves managed to work its way in between his tibia and patella. Such a sweet scar.

Snapped the cores on a pair of Line EP Pros (sad day) right behind the bindings coming up slightly short on a step-up. Luckily the bases and topsheets basically held the skis together but it made for an incredibly sketchy ski down to the base.
