Plenty of open terrain at Hunter. Amazing that he poached your line all day. Maybe you should think about getting off Belt. :razz:


HA! belt was the one place I could get away from him. I saw him behind me once and ducked down white cloud and lost him :p

That sounds really bizarre. Seems like it would be easy enough to shake him with all the trail options at Hunter...

it's more annoying than anything. I'm still at the point where I have to watch my girlfriend when we do blacks because she gets frustrated when she falls and I have to talk her down. Then I have to think about this guy slithering down the mountain behind me. bringing my extra long poles this weekend lol

Kind of confused by this....

Original post is complaint about the snappily-dressed guy doing GS turns in front of you, and last post has him slithering down the trails behind you.

This high-speed aggression is partly why I prefer to ski bumps. Much more camaraderie and friendliness in the mogul field.

Not really. A little annoying, but I typically try to wait it out. If the newbs weren't ever skiing the bumps at Sundown, we certainly wouldn't have bumps at Sundown so most of the time we try to be patient. And even if I was totally aggravated, I wouldn't be coming up with ways to get revenge.

This whole mentality is hostile to anyone newer to the sport than the assumed-experts complaining. :roll: It's no wonder why I get tense when I hear someone skiing too close....

not with our crew. we're just lowly internet gapers from alpinezone who can only ski bumps at sundown. we have no ego's.

except for grassi, he has a huge head.
