One of the X Games commentators said "and this is the last run of the night" for the big air men's ski competition. Long story short, next thing that happens in Vinny Cash goes for a screamin semen 12 and knuckles the big air jump. Never call last run. Even you X Games commentator.

This weekend I went skiing with my friend and he is definitely a strong beginner skier (I had to teach him how to do moguls), and he called last run. Naturally I reprimanded him and explained why you never do that. In the next run, which wasn't even our last, some rando girl on the lift yardsaled while trying to get off and dragged him and my other friend down too yardsaling both of them. They had to stop the lift. Then when we were about to load on the next lift some shitty snowboarder kids got tangled up in his rentals (his DIN must have been set to like 3) and took off his skis and they had to stop the lift for him again. Justice was rightfully served. Never call last run.

Also I learned something: skiing with basically gapers in your group is not fun.

I called last run and went a green or blue to get to my car ... Someone change direction and hit me. My ski crossed in caribou but i was still going down cause i wasnt able to uncrossed them. The other guy was holding my arm and kind of dragginh me on the side; where we finaly crash. One of my ski hurt his and made a nice rotation (as I was already in caribou) my knee made a crack noise and ... lucky me my ACLs are OK; but its still hurts (and this was a month ago), I need advils to ski (thank god i can ski).

I learnd.
Never call last run, even going down a green or blue run.

Major taboo! That's something I never say! I just say "I'm going to take a break now".

Called last run today and went HAM into the last jump in black park. overshot it to flat which really hurt but was pleasantly surprised when I found out the heel piece to my binding probed me 3 inches deep. At the time I guess I concluded that it was my "coming of age" so to speak. When it happened I looked to the sky and told myself, "I will always be a skier..."

when calling last run you are messing with some serious voodoo magic

This is one superstition Im careful about, started with longboarding when I called last run and narrowly got missed by a car traveling in the wrong lane and got road rash from my foot to my shoulder. also called last run in a downhill race and someone pulled out of their driveway sending 2 other friends and myself into someones front lawn and a hay bail. calling Last run before lunch left me with a dislocated shoulder and my friend with a broken ski brake. When people say "last run" I say "I'll see when I get to the bottom" or "a couple more"
