Cool The AlpineZone Battle Royal

By far the two biggest factions here on AZ are:
  • The Arrogant Moguls Nuts
  • The Pretentious Turn Earners
This is a thread solely for trash talkin' so let's all take off the gloves and throw down. This is kinda like the mother of roast threads, based on skiing preference and should keep us busy in the off-season.

I specifically didn't include those wimpy groomer lovers that only want to carve the flats to achieve mad steezy speed or those silly knuckle draggin' snowboarders here. The mogul nuts and turn earners would undoubtedly join forces and kick their asses if those posers came around. This thread is for real men.



I shouldn't have to say it, but this thread is meant to be in jest. Carry on...

Looks like a close call. Right...

(This thread is going to be fun)

BTW: You guys can have AndyZee. We were going to recruit him, but after seeing his fatass barely make it up Hillmans Highway once I've decided you guys get him.

Five runs. Probably more than half the old men on this forum do in a day of lift served skiing.

(I should be doing homework right now. This thread is not going to help)

Yep fun stuff. So once you moguls skiers inevitably lose this argument at least you'll still be able to resort to say that I'm a huge loser who stays home on Friday night and does homework.

BTW: I think I need to call Marc to come check out this thread. Combine the pretentiousness of being an a scumbag engineer + turn-earner and we'll have a winning combination.

Turn earners are people you don't like to get a lot of vert in a day and have way to much time on there hands to want to walk up mountain.

Snowboarders are people who can't handle two boards so they use one fat one.

People who ski fast use it as an excuse to avoid skiing bumps...since they can't.

Bump skiers rule!!!! They can ski anywhere on the mountain get lots of vert and use two boards to do it.

.

Sweet view of the road. Real wilderness out there in the Was-angeles mountains. Did you get a nice view of that sweet smog cloud over SLC, or did you just get to see the ugly ass town. So how many of your closest friends did you have to share that mountain with? A few hundred?

(Us turn-earners aren't a friendly group. Even towards each other)

This thread is awesome...

Edit: Don't even get me started on you filthy, gorp eating, hemp wearing, weed smoking telemarkers.

Edit #2: Don't sell us short, Greg. We're pretty arrogant also. I'd said we're more arrogant and pretentious then those stupid bump skiers. Oh man how about the gay pants bump skiers wear... Those are radical
