Replying to Yellow Jacket Evasion Course
Ok, so we all know who the infamous Vail Yellow Jackets are. Their forces lurk and wait for any decently skilled skier or anyone who wants to have a good time and ruin their fun with threats and pass removals. Should we offer a course to skiers that demonstrates methods and tactics for avoiding and or out running them?
Some ideas Include:
Precise slash turns to create a smoke screen that provides a few seconds to escape
Large kickers built around the mountain to aid in escape
Putting tin foil around ones pass to prevent identification
Hiding spots around the mountain
A database that shows who the chill lifties are
A star system like in GTA that lets skiiers know how strict the Yellow Jackets are on a given day
Me and a few guys I know will hide in some trees with a shortwave radio and listen for Yellow Jackets calling out "dangerous" skiiers and rush to that area to create a diversion
Any other ideas?
