Shit Skiers Don't Say

[Nick]

So last year there was a video about "shit skiers say" as part of the whole "shit xxxxx says" meme.



Spawned some similar offshoots

"shit skier girls say"



"shit east coast skiers say"


Ski Stef and I were joking about "shit skiers Don't say"

Let's see what we can come up with ...

Some to start:

> "I wish they would groom this powder, it's just too deep"

> "I wish I was at the beach"

> "My feet an hands are so warm right now"

> "I wish they would groom this powder, it's just too deep"

Actually, there are people that do say that.

Indeed. A lot of people say that.

Indeed. A lot of people say that.

Especially at Bretton Woods!

>These boots are so easy to get out of on a cold day
>The food here is cheap
>This is my last run
>Yes, I ducked the rope
>These fat skis suck on ice
>Look at that sweet line, you go first
>I'll wait for you (on a powder day)

I wish it was more crowded.

People say it, but not Skiers...

Actually, a lot of skiers say there is too much powder. Not a powder day goes by where I don't over hear at least one person (oops, skier I should say) saying that. Hell, I used to say that...

Very, very true. So save that one for the "Shit Snowboarders Don't Say" list.

I think the point is, if they say it, then they are not really skiers!

 

[ALLSKIING]

I hear all the time from skiers saying..."that run sucked they did not even groom it"

Slow lifts rock!
Gotta love these crowds.
Always get lunch at 12:00 on Saturday.

Mountain specific references:
Okemo needs more stairs.
Parking at MRG is a blast!
Wind? At Sugarloaf? Nah...
Bretton Woods is too steep.
Stratton should add more 6-packs.
Juggernaut at Killington is too short.
Mount Snow is never crowded.
The Snowdon Quad should be slowed down.
Jay needs more snow.
Windham needs a trail that starts with "w".

My wife tells me it everytime. She just can't move in fresh snow lol.

It's too cold to go skiing.
I'd rather go to Cabo for spring break.
I hope this winter is not as snowy as last year.
It's raining. No way am I going skiing. Let's go to the mall.
Drinks are on me.

Jan 2011 there was a line of folks asking for their money back at our local hill because the 22" or so of fresh was too Tiring or hard to ski in.. Would have been the same this 2.10. But for the fact no one could get there until it was skied down due to roads closed... So I'll add a new things skiers never say...


I wish the gov would open the roads so more people can ski this 26-30" of fresh with me...

>Pardon me, did I take your place in line?
>You're welcome to sit here since the family I'm reserving this table for hasn't come in yet.
>You killed that run so I won't clip your ticket for poaching.
>Do you mind if I smoke?
>Are you prepared for the safety bar to come down?

 

[hammer]

Guess I'm not a skier...

It's too cold to go skiing.

After going out for racing at Pats Peak in subzero temps and taking a few rides on the Freezer at Jay I will admit I do say this on occasion.

Are you prepared for the safety bar to come down?

After getting a front tooth chipped on a bar coming up as we approached the top, I always call out the safety bar now.

 

[KevinF]

I actually hear a lot of these...

I heard the "there's nothing groomed" at Stowe while it was snowing during the most recent "big" storm.

I always ask if my seatmates are ready for the safety bar before I lower it.

The no grooming thing is almost universal when you consider the vast majority of skiers are "inside the bell curve" not at one of the extreme ends . They are neither addicted to the sport , nor are they competitive , aggressive ,or technically skilled at the high end of the sport . For them and for MOST it is a relaxing , beautiful ambience to be savored not obsessed about vert or run counts or style points for how sick their performance was /is etc etc .

Now all that said : i wid u guys leave my effin powder alone dammit , groom some trails and leave some goods for the rest of us that live in the OTHER end of the bell curve
