“yea the only other place i know of that has 4000ft of vert is Killington”

“I love Snowbird, that’s in Colorado, right?”

i could be mistaken but i believe volkl does something along those lines on their SL race skis

is that Klaus Obermeyer? :fmicon:

It always blows my mind when I come across people like this.

But was it uphill BOTH ways?!

What's a fart bag?

Last week I was skiing with my bud who was doing the skis on the shoulder oblivious swing all over the place thing. I was like duuuuude common.

Overheard from skier on slope while riding the lift at Roundtop in PA, after 3 inches of dense snow:

"No wonder why everyone's going so slow, it's mogul city out here!"

…there were no moguls...

straight lining while completely out of control… yes gapers. did I really have to spell that out?

Do agree on the sketchiness of night deliveries. The box truck was much smaller than what you'd normally see for deliveries and had no logos on it or...

Last night was cleaning mud off my skis outside my apartment while another tenant was getting furniture delivered. One of the delivery guys glanced at my skis and asked me if they were for snow.

what are the decibels though :fmicon:

On Sunday

I blew out an edge near the side of the trail and proceeded to slide into the muddy grass. I was somehow able to right myself before going over the drop off and land on my feet. But I...

I was undoubtedly the gaper today… Probably shouldn't be sharing this here but I'm all for some self deprecating humor.

The gofundme and resulting epic thread are pretty funny, and the guy is definitely at fault, but I'd be pissed too if the resort was asking me to pony up $1400 for rental skis…

Is that under goldhill express? Was just there and never saw that, but that's the only spot I can think with a lift running over it.

So, we'll take that as a no ;)

the most savage jerry of the day I've ever seen

Speaking of nasty traverses, the one out to Evergreen at Solitude was an absolute shit show last season in early March.

Yep.

I think one of the driving factors here in Burlington is the 'look at me I'm going skiing' bro brah shit, at least with a large population of college goers. Kind of funny how seemly smart...

Someone in the lift line yesterday

"you heading up?"

I almost burst out laughing. On the lift she proceeded to tell me the very in depth story of how she fucked up getting her daughter Pearl...

What if there are wolves in the area? :fmicon:

I wanna give him the benefit of the doubt and say that comment was made in jest due to how shitty own winter has been.

Sorry, don't know how to link instagram vids.

I think the consensus was to stop keeping them outside cause they can get lost.

Just what I read, I don't own any gear.

haha That's awesome.

TOFTB...

I can confirm.

Twin tips would complete the story.

I second that, never fails to bring the lulz.
