Vail Sucks!

[72Twenty]

Is this a new cool trend, not have the safety bar down? As long as they say bar coming down...what's the problem?

Unless you are one of those cool kids that want to fall to your death one day.

Whatever..each his own.

My local hill doesn't even HAVE "safety" bars. Does this mean I am going to die? OMGOMGOMGOMG

Please post more...once a year is not enough of this excellent commentary! It's the idiots that have the bar on your head before your boards off the snow...not the act of using the bar. 'tard.


I wish I was the lifty next time you go skiing.

yes, i LOVE when some panicky touron clanks my lid with the bar...yes, before we've left the terminal.
i don't know how many times i've had to say "that's ok...that's why i wear a helmet" this season

and to techwhatnot...how about the cool older folks...when am i gonna fall to my death, pray tell? for how many years is something a 'new' trend?
new like parabolic skis? ski brakes? plastic boots?

I got 2 nice scratches and a crick in my neck thanks to the out of town ass clowns at "skistoned" on Wendsday.

If they start dropping bars again like in the 80's I'm going ape-shit and hanging on the chair in front of me..........

I dunno, you'd think after one or two times you freaks would learn to observe and be prepared to duck.

I mean, for me it only tick one lick of the bar before I learned I didn't wanna get my tongue stuck no more. What is it about getting accidentally clobbered that's so different?
