Don’t ski like a “dad” and it shouldn’t bother you.
Dont be a boomer , and won’t get called boomer.

I like the, “dad” , insult. It’s perfect for dentists and those dicks that get mad in the line , or say hey slow down and get off my lawn ✊🏼and it’s like a secret way to call a boomer a boomer without getting chewed out , these old people are catching on ..

As the father of two I disapprove of this message OP.
Dad turns are dad turns, dad cams are dad, and dad skis are full on dad skis (sorry QST, mindbender etc. riders)

Ngl I love a good day of just carving and cruising but that is 100% dad shit. Every ski dad I know always talks about turns. Just like every mom I know "doesn't ski blacks anymore".

So the definition of a dad turn according to Webster's marionberry dictionary is a turn typically left or right accomplished on a previously groomed snow surface by a parent who is typically male and not using onep3 skis .

Is it ok when a girl calls you daddy?

Return of the turn video the girl there says you cannot impress her just with park stuff, gotto be able "carv a turn". I feel thats legit.



Cutting in line, walking over peoples skis.. thats just beeing a dick.

Dad turns will become more enjoyable after you realize nobody will pay your mortgage or put the food on the table for little Johnny. Just trust me on this one

I still insist that turns never left. When you get that perfect snow nothing better than getting low.

My dad didnt start skiing until he started me and my brothers at it when he was like 40. Still though he became a great skier. He could make it through moguls fine and on anything groomed (even groomed blacks) he would rip turns at high speed and he would bomb at probly 60-70 mph when he raced me or one of my brothers as teenagers.

its not really fair for a kid who started skiing at age 5 to judge a father who didnt start until they were in their 30s or 40s.

Scrubbing little drops on a groomer at speed in the middle of a carve is pretty dope, but that definitely didn't need to be four minutes long.

This is what I’m sayin. Not a dad myself (that I’m aware of) but I don’t claim dad turns
