Sooo were riding up the lift and about 1/2 way a buddy of mine says to the guy next to him where's your other ski? The guy says I don't know it was on my foot when I loaded. I'm thinking it's a set up and this guy will go right off the ramp on 1 like no big deal. Didn't happen he crashed on the ramp. How do you lose a ski and don't know it. Wow.

It's very important to keep your tips up after loading the chair.

so this well meaning dude today is talking to his/a girl he's riding with and when she mentions her boots are loose, he confidently asserts/rambles on about how this is a good thing in today's conditions mostly (chopped up 10 cms of christmas pow).
I kind of just felt bad for this poor individual and his protege... Who's spreading this garbage? I mean is there someone out there literaly telling these poor people that in soft snow you should loosen your buckles?
just sounds awful...

Lightweight
Back when I was a beginner JONG, where it asks for your weight on the Rental Form, I made the mistake of putting down how much I weigh "just out of the shower".
Clicked into the ski's, and as I headed to the lift, the ski's stayed put on the snow, and I walked out of them, and prolly fell over.
Oh how we laughed...
(I'm an experienced JONG now)

I'm putting petro in my Cherokee, had the skis on the yak rack side by side style. Guy walks over and the convo goes as follows:
Guy: "Those your skis?"
Me: "Yep"
Guy: "Cool!"
Me: nod silently agreeing with my level of coolness
Guy: "Both of them?"
He then proceeds to spill fuel out of his 1984 sheepdog.
Oh, and I'm a black woman.You've got to have the courage to say to your wife, "Get in there and make me some bean dip."

"Check it out. Randole* boots! Those are kinda hard to find"
Translation:
*"Randole" is a cross between randonee and andale (remeber Speedy Gonzales?).

not this weekend but...walking home from a halloween party, I'd been dressed as a skier; I'm still carrying my poles and have skis strapped to my backpack.
Random guy- "You a snowboarder?"
Me- blank look of disgust "Yup," more quietly but still plenty loud enough for him to hear, "fucking idiot"
Random guy- with an I told you so attitude "I heard snowboarders were assholes"
I just chugged my beer and chuckled as I walked off

Happo Nagano, Japan
epic pow day in a snowstorm today
getting off the chair I see a couple begging the lifty to let them ride the lift down. They had thick aussie accents and the japanese guy running the lift was having none of it. The guy then dropped to his knees hands clasped "Please sir, PLEASE SIR, we cant, we just can't".
Thats all, didn't stick around for obvious reasons.

Walking through Midway airport in Chicago, comine home from SLC to visit the family. I have my boots over my shoulder, and a guy on the moving walkway has this conversation with me:
Him: "Are those ski boots?"
Me: "yep."
him: "So what do you use those for?"
I silently walked away.

On the lift today here in the midwest -
Gaper 1: They built a 100 foot gap here a couple years ago.
Gaper 2: Did you hit it?
Gaper 1: Nope, I didn't ski here that year. But I saw a picture.

I can’t take these stories anymore. The original intent of this thread was funny. About half of the stories on this thread are funny. The other half make me want to vomit. I don’t understand how making fun of beginners is enjoyable. Do you make fun of handicap and retarded people too? Really, what’s the deal with some of you people? I mean the picture of the poor little kid with his pants tucked into his boots? Go over and fucking help him. Don’t stand there and take pictures of him. What the fuck? Were you picked on as a child?? Most of these stories are of hard working, good people trying to take their kids on a vacation. Yeah the dad is wearing a Carhart jacket and has no idea what he’s doing, so fucking what. Yeah they don’t know what they are talking about, so fucking what. Some of these quotes are of people just trying to make small talk on the lift. They don’t know much about the sport and are trying to talk about it. A guy points to your skis and asks if they are for jumping? What’s funny about that? He doesn’t know what they are for and is trying to find out. Why act like a snob to them? You probably went on vacation and tried something new and sounded like a dumb fuck too. I doubt the people who witnessed you ignorance are on a message board right now making fun of you.
