Shot out to all you POSERS and fakers

**digitaldeath** · 02-26-2013, 03:51 PM

after a glorious week of skiing in the PNW i came to realize that so many people are complete posers

they have no fundemantals, no to little technique. mostly its the guys with all the rad gear, their skiing aint so rad.

while there are skiers much much better than me or my skiing buddy...we don't see too many of them

the difference between me and the posers...i grew up skiing cold ice in MN... we could only work on our technique since the runs are so short.

in short, i would like to call out all you Artycrex wearing, backpackwearing BITCHES--- illl fuck you up on or off the slopes

i dont appreciate being ragged on by trustarfarians or doctors... those who ski slow and dont take risks - you are clogging the parking lots !!!!!!!

i rate myself 8 out of 10 as a skier - pro skiers being 10+ mike wilson being 15

I opened this hoping I would get a shot for being a poser. I'll take a Pendleton. Thanks

I'm more extreme than you are, 9 out of 10.

**digitaldeath** · 02-26-2013, 04:42 PM

^^^ i can appreciate that

**Soups** · 02-26-2013, 04:46 PM

I have and Arc jacket but don't wear a backpack and rate myself as a 7. I guess I should just quit

**digitaldeath** · 02-26-2013, 04:49 PM

totally your call man, as skiing is an individual sport

**pfluffenmeister** · 02-26-2013, 04:52 PM

haaeey, i wear an arcteryx jacket.

but i also hike ridgelines, does that up my gnarcore factor?

**BC_ski_BC** · 02-26-2013, 04:52 PM

Who gives a fuck if you wear a backpack?

This one goes to 11....

**Choucas** · 02-26-2013, 04:55 PM

Not sure who Artycrex is, but I don't have his jacket so I must not be a poser. That's a big relief.

**digitaldeath** · 02-26-2013, 04:57 PM

i should have said a backpack full of useless stuff...beacon, probe, shovel

a lot of dudes with all this gear would get burned on a groomer by little kids

just think there are too many posers doing slackcountry stuff thinking they bigtime when a kid from MN would rip them up

...mostly i dislike the condescension expressed by skiers young and old. probably because they are filthy rich and dont like mixing with the masses... they smell like shit

Have you checked your AC pump drive belt and refrigerant levels?

**FlimFlamvanHam** · 02-26-2013, 05:09 PM

Hey! you said Mike Wilson! There were a pair of his skis in gearswap about a month ago for a sweet deal especially in light of his 15 rating.

Just so you know, I'm this sickest skier on the mountain. never catch me carrying a bitch ass shovel or probe, dumb partners shouldn't have gotten themselves buried...
wait... what?

spook · 02-26-2013, 05:26 PM

i have no talent or rad gear.

From his other thread...

Get to the back of the parking lot.

**digitaldeath** · 02-26-2013, 05:29 PM

the whole obsession with"dead body finders" is tired and expensive. im not gonna buy that shit. i assume the risk and heed all warnings.

**volklpowdermaniac** · 02-26-2013, 05:30 PM

U mad bro?

I'm just getting in on page one of this. Popcorn will be done in 3 minutes

**digitaldeath** · 02-26-2013, 05:31 PM

Among other things yes.

**SkiBall** · 02-26-2013, 05:35 PM

My technique is only a little wild on my off days, which is most days.

**AK47bp** · 02-26-2013, 05:36 PM

What do you expect when Microsoft and Boeing mid level execs decide to take up a sport, they roll into REI and have Doug the granola eating bicyclist recommend all the latest ski gear, price no matter. Oh your wife is worried because she saw an avy on the news, boom problem solved, here's a $1200 airbag pack to wear inbounds. It's pretty ridiculous and more so than other ski areas because its so close to Seattle.
