    Greg, DHS and 2knees

    They have been coming to http://nsmountainsports.com/forums/ to post. Several other AZ members have as well, but the three I mentioned in the thread title seem to be there mostly to troll. Trolling isn’t allowed here, yet these three gentlemen seem to want to do it at NS. Why do you think that...

    For DMC

    Is there any way you could repost the video you made for the last 24 hours of GSS… the thread Greg started before conversation about GSS was cut off? Besides being the most hilarious thing I’ve ever seen on a forum…I think it would help keep morale up for GSS freedom fighters.

    Do You Ever Wonder Why You Do on the Internet?

    Do You Ever Wonder Why You Do What You Do on the Internet? I do, I just spent 2 days fighting for GSS reinstatement on AZ. I didn’t enjoy any of it and found it kind of exhausting after a while. I still think it’s unfair, but I and others where told no…at which point I should have let it go. I...

    Feelings As The Season Winds Down

    I hope to ski till the end of April, maybe even a little longer. I do have interests in the off season, road biking, kayaking and hiking. I’m also looking forward to getting a mountain bike this summer. I like the warmer weather too. Once I’m out of ski season and doing other things I’m fine...

    Criteria for Banning Someone

    Greg's overmoderation thread got me thinkin about decisions about banning a member for life. What is it mods? Someone once said of that they couldn’t define pornography, but they knew it when they saw it. Is it like that or do you guys have guidelines for doing it? What do non-mods think about...

    1. People who are so involved with their conversation that they don’t realize the line is moving and just stand there.

    Johnny Carson’s Ski Lesson

    Ahhhhh…. the memories. Great article on page 42 of this month’s Ski Magazine. In 1964, a pretty young instructor from Hunter gave Carson a ski lesson on his show. I was 10 years old at the time, but my parents let me stay up to watch it cause it was a huge deal for everyone at Hunter. Kitty, the...

    The Wild, the Innocent and the Lift Line Shuffle

    I hate aggressive mfers who have to keep trying to improve their position in a lift line. As you stand in multiple line segments waiting for the liftie to alternate these pricks have to keep inching up so that they get a shoulder past the person in front. They didn’t just improve their position...

    Getting Busy With Your Instructor

    I’ve never talked with any lady instructors about it, but I have heard some stories from some guys about dates with their female clients. Some of those guys do all right for themselves or so they say. Anyone here ever get romantic with an instructor or wanted to. Maybe Mattchuck and other AZ...
