Cranked music while skiing

[HansJob]

I guess some people like the attention?

I believe this is it. Look at me. Look at me.

[capulin overdrive]

Jesus there are some old crumugidy farts on this board... I play music (so only I can hear it) so I dont have to talk to some race DBag or most resort skiers about my water skis on the chair... The only real part about skiing I dislike is someone wanting to chit chat on the chair that I dont know...

Its always the same remarks - What type fo skis are those...? Can you ski those on groomers...? Arent those powder skis...? Where are you from...? Blah... Blah... Blah...

On 3 P. What? O N 3 P. What's that? Then you try to explain the name ad infinitum.

It's almost as bad as loud motorcycles.

I lived right on Broadway in Saratoga Springs for three years, balcony over the main drag. This was pre recession, 04-07, so the white working class Trump voter was still rolling in fictional dough from loans off there shitty little houses, and riding Harleys en mass. And they had jobs. A favorite destination was along Broadway all summer weekends, where they stood around and said, nice bike, nice bike, and not much else, because they couldn't drink too much - they had to ride an hour or two home in the dark. Right under my window.

Anyway, one real nice Sunday evening I hear one of those things start up across the street, sounding like a small war, and it continues for over a minute, which is a long time. I look out, and there's asshole rider perched on the thing carrying on a conversation with his asshole buddy, both SHOUTING AS LOUDLY AS THEY CAN because he was making war noises with his Harley. I was stunned. It went on for five minutes. Still, to this day, the most obnoxious public noise thing I've had to endure, and I remember warring boom boxes in Central Park in the early eighties.

[PNWbrit]

That's a hell of a song.

Agreed.



Just say no to lamé

[undertow2]

Headphones or helmet tunes? If not, how do you play music so you can hear it but others can't? I don't know if you're and asshole but you sound like one.

So does this mean we wont be ski buddies...? And like i said if you think I am an asshole than that is def cool with me... Enjoy your season and will def be thinking of you on the chair tomorrow kicking it to Led Zepplin...

Yep... And it goes on to never heard of them and than goes to - "is that like a garage ski..."?

[Benny Profane]

Garageski was a punchline to an old Polish joke.

I'll be skiing cold smoke tomorrow with my friends and definitely won't be thinking of you.

Well that makes me sad...! Enjoy your cold smoke and friends...

Sorry I am not Polish, but an asshole...!

This is my current solution for music. Most comfortable I could find. Hate earbuds.

I don't know about music but the best lift conversations are the ones had after the first few runs on a deep day. Happiness, giggles and shit eating grins all around. Foreign diplomacy should happen then.

Like all those peeps that get to the front at a gig, and then start chatting...???

I don't know about music...

It's this rhythmic vibration that we can perceive with our ear holes.
I don't know about cars...

[WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot]

aw dang! i really like blasting Beastie Boys and Rolling Stones in the back lot after chairs closed and the sun going down: rippin' down a little rainier and KGB; all those girls that like to party stoppin by to take a look........you sayin' that aint cool no more?! fkna

[capulin overdrive]

Parking lot music is fine if it's shared taste, if not, then not so much.


I've applied the South Park death metal theory and cleared out the Loveland lot when surrounded by half dozen hippies and wiggers playing their shit. Little 8 Foot Sativa did the trick.

No that sounds fucking cool. Can I come?

Try asking "Could you turn that off please? It's really annoying." 100% success rate in my experience. Works for kids on the bus too. You sometimes get a "thank you" from other passengers.

Jesus, thats been a while. FKNA

I think I did have that song (the original) in my playlist like 5 times over.

Oh high school! Chainz and dorags, white Ts and 59fiftys, rap battles in the parking lot and friends who called their braces grillz. No wonder my parents just shook their head and laughed.

[Marshall Tucker]

See skis like these here in the NC Mountains all the time. on a 50 degree feb day on a thin ribbon of manmade. On the lift I'll ask the guy " hey you gettin good float outta those today?"

[lifelinksplit]

Starting to see it at Bridger now. Mostly park rats with shitty rap (and I like rap, well hip hop). As far as parking lot music, old fucks need to go to sleep! I ride solo a lot and always at least try to have a nice conversation although it was hard the other day with snap chat this and Instagram that. Whatever I'm going to freeze my balls off now

[old goat]

I can't see shit.

It's invisible ink made from lemon juice. If you heat your screen with a lighter you'll be able to read it.

Damien Sanders would consider it an excellent eastern tree ski in its longest length.

Every day, without fail.

Yesterday, a pair of old guys with matching soul 7s asked my gf and I, "Are those Armada skis?"

I'm a marginal rider with pape's and a lighter, but my friend's a pro...
