it's all just preference. Like i don't personally don't like to drink and ski but thats no hate to anyone that wants to have some brews while spinning laps. as long as you're having fun and not crashing into anyone who cares its not that deep

Sunny spring days, yes
Powder days at LCC I need my cardio in top shape to hike baldy or out traverse others. Beer comes later on in the chopped up crud

Jerry pointing em straight heading right for your knees is way more dangerous than locals chugging beers. Keep your head on a swivel dude.

I love drinking beers but can't drink and ski because it gives me a crazy headache every time, but I more than make up for it with excessive chron smokeage

I’m not saying get hammered but a few lot beers and chairlift beers aren’t a big deal especially on a spring or early season day

Drinking while skiing is great. Drinking in the morning is great. Drinking and skiing in the morning is awesome! (Also hit that blunt)

Drinking and skiing isn't a problem. However, when you're drunk and skiing, it will be dangerous for you as well as for other people. So don't get drunk and ski.

Next time your buddy breaks out pocket beers, you have to ask yourself, “Am I a skier? Or am I a Squi?”


That hit deep

He looks like a grown up nerd.

Custom skis that suck? He's ragging on all those indie brands with this one. Clearly a believer in the tools make the skier. Guaranteed you throw a pro on skis from the 60's and they'll still ski 100 times better than you. Dude prob rides DPS.

The tell tale accessory of a try hard townie, the Kinco work glove.... Oh man. Just offended like 90% of NS. Honestly tho, I bought a pair last year for $20 and they perform almost as good as my $200+ goose down mittens. The gloves are quality l, comfortable, and durable so fuck this dude. He's prob just mad his Hestras cost him $150 and are no better.

This dude talks about a crisp German Pilsner or three after skiing. Seriously? Who's go to is a pilsner? Scrub. About the most boring beer ever.

This guy is acting like drinking is something new to skiing. It's not and if anything is less now than it used to be. Idk where you've been bud, but those try hard locals could prob out ski you blitzed out of their mind. No one is gonna hit your kid. Relax helicopter douche.

This guy embodies everything to hate about CERTAIN people from Colorado and their pretentious egos.

I will say I don't drink when I ski because I could never forgive myself if I got hurt because I was drunk or high. But if someone else wants to party before going out, who cares, rock on. Mind your business grandpa.

You do you bro... How can anyone be such a grumpy gus in the tram line on a powder day? Those Coors Lights are calorie replacement cold snacks. Scientifically proven to be better for you and cheaper than stopping for lunch on a powder day.

I guess skiing just can't cure some people, and I am glad I am not one of them.

Dude sorta has a point, but also doesn't seem like the best person to be making that point because he likely sucks ass at skiing. If your whole argument revolves around the idea that beer makes you a worse skier, then you better be fucking sending it at all times and lead by example if you are going to be that preachy. I doubt he does this and to most good skiers he probably looks and skis like a jerry.

tldr: dude is a jerry

"My son and I are standing in the gondola line at Jackson..."

He's a dad now. Having children changes your outlook on life and drinking while skiing, I totally get his perspective.....that's why I put my kid up for adoption and kept the apres going.

PS - this article is click bait. Don't feed the troll.

"I also knew one New Hampshire tree-skiing buddy, the wood booger of all wood boogers, who was locally famous for carrying “three sticks and a six” in his parka on big days. But his family had a special tolerance gene."

*Justifies drinking and smoking because his buddy from NH has a high tolerance, continues to rant how locals riding custom skis are inferior and a threat to safety*

Fuck you dood I'm smoking a kief covered joint before hitting the park first day on the hill this year

You know, women and POC are generally disenfranchised, women of color more so. As absurd as this article is, you aren’t doing yourself any favors by railing on people who don’t look like you.
