Calling all Youngins (under 30)

[riverc0il]

But how many of them would want to go into a bar and act like a bunch of horney morons everynight for a week?

can't say i have ever had any idea to do that. at least the acting like a bunch of horney morons. i think perhaps that is why i usually hang with an older crowd perhaps, the partying tendencies of youth have held no pull over me for many years.

35 going on 22 here!
Nothin' I like more than tearing it up on the hill then beating some a$$ on the pool table w/ a few brews that night .
Skiing has something in common with billiards. Confidence in yourself can bring you to the the next level. And after a good day on the hill i'm filled with confidence, so dont miss or i'll run em out on ya! And I dont care how young or old you are :P !Rack em!

Confidence at the pool table often winds up with Marc hiting someone with the cue ball in an errant low Englsih attempt.



After a few of those brews of course.

I should be kept away from all sharp and hard blunt objects after consuming alcohol.

You do realize that you talk about yourself in the 3rd person a lot, Marc, don't you? It's like a Seinfeld episode in here sometimes!

alright, you all get the idea of what i was trying to do. Give me credit for trying even though its been a total rejection. I wasn't trying to exclude anyone at all, just didnt think this kind of thing would appeal to anyone much older (apperently there is life after 30...not so depressed anymore about being 23, maybe it won't be so bad).

River, I hear ya on the lack of appeal on being a fool. Guess thats because when im not on vacation I almost never party, so when I go on a trip, I want to go balls to the wall. Not to mention I still have to meet that mrs.skibum (not skibum's wife...just a female ski bum) who keeps visiting me in my dreams, and what better place then a quiet mountain bar (I hate crowded bars...i like to be able to hold a drunken conversation without loud bass and strobe lights pissing me off)

Anyway, nothing wrong with the 3rd person, I use the royal "we" all the time. I think this thread is starting to go the way of misc discussions.

I think the lift is a much better place to meet female ski bums. You have 5-10 minutes to make small talk in a low pressure environment, when they are already in a good mood from skiing*.


* If they are in a bad mood while skiing then "NEXT!!!"

25 yr old here interested. What you thinking? Any good places in mind? Sunapee is an easy ski and centrally located. Maybe Gunstock. Other ideas?

That's what I like about you, TB. No hesitation. No cheecky comment. You just jumped right in there and got down to business. Kudos!

I qualify because I stopped counting at 29.

I'm 40. I ski with a guy 70 and another 63 every Sunday morning.
The guy who is 63 can get down the mountain pretty fast.
Hitting the bars I have a bit of experience. Flirting is not my specailty.
I get the point of wanting a group to hang with in a specific age group.
Just don't judge skiing by age. You could get your ass whipped by someone close to 25 years your senior. I do every weekend.

Some of the social aspects... I see your points. Good luck and go for it.
