ericformanI hype people up I don't know if they are doing cool shit including but not limited to:
not wearing a real jacket, skiing bumps super fast, jumping off stuff, owning cool skis, etc.
I wish this wasn't weird, because I want the mountain to be a giant stoke city, but 90% of people seem taken aback by it.
270on420outI fasten the booster strap under the tongue on my full tilts. Swear it makes the fit 10x better.
armchair_skierGot a girls snap on the lift Sunday and she said I should ski with her this weekend 😳
Nuno812Do the same shitty blind 2s and 3ing jumps on every feature for 10 years
tri_photoplay music in a backpack, ya'll should try it
JK, go ahead and punch me in the face if I ever do that
BigPurpleSkiSuitGive genuine encouragement to beginners as I ski past them!
freestyler540Do everything well, jack of all trades but master of none. My turns make ski instructors heads turn. Then Ill rip a big 540 while I have their attention and hold the switch skiing all the way down to the bottom. Next day, Ill have a park session with another group of buddies. The. Finish the day in a mogul infested run and have fun zippering the line.A day after, Ill lead my team 12 miles from the car, deep into the backcountry, and huck a 30 footer while out there.
So there is nothing special that I do, but I do it all and more
weastcoatFilm good. I swear everyone I know kinda sucks at filming whether it’s on a camera or just an iPhone. No sense of good angles or framing of shots.
weastcoatDon’t wear gloves/mittens 75% of the time
asparagusdon’t get how people do this

weastcoatWorking hands I guess. You get used to it. Kinda clutch tbh, ease of earbud pause/play/skip/volume, don’t have to take anything off to take a clip, easy adjustment of your glasses or goggles, easier grabs, etc. Plus you just look like a badass doing it anyway.

DeebieSkeebiesAnd? You know how many miles some of us dudes walk and work in a single golf season? Too many. Don't talk shit.
Anyways idk what I do differently but skiing is rad and I like how weird you all are too.
WunhungL0Practice looking over my opposite shoulder riding switch
RparrI actually hate looking over my left shoulder switch so much that I mostly spin right off of jumps switch. I spin left naturally
spinning unnat off a jump is preferable to using my other shoulder for me lmao

WunhungL0I'm assuming everyone rotates to their opposite side in switch, right?
RparrNah the vast majority of my friends spin the same way switch as forward and think I'm crazy for doing what you describe. Blenders are fucking terrifying, I tried one once, never again
weastcoatPlus when I started golfing everyday it fucking shreds your hands from the blister to callus cycle. All dudes I know who play a shit ton and have their whole life have the most insane leather hands it’s kinda funny.
