Biggest Problem Facing Ski Areas (and not global warming)

[Downhill Threads]

My friends and I made a PSA this past weekend about the biggest problem at ski areas that no one is talking about. Be easy on us... we're not professional actors. Just fellow East Coast skiers addressing a problem.

I like it. And the t-shirt!

 

[Smellytele]

Nice. Where can we buy the shirts? How about ski pants that look like denim? Can we ban those as well?

If I'm spending $25 on a skiing tshirt, there's only one choice.

JEANS!?!? There's nothing wrong with skiing in jeans! I did that 2 weeks ago.

Classic....a constant conversation among a few friends. Who can spot the most jeans and starter jackets....

 

[Smellytele]

I told my kids the other day never ski with your jacket totally unzipped and flapping in the wind. Ever.

Said it before, I'll say it again: lift serviced skiing at temps > 65 is mandatory jeans or carhartts for me. Call me gaper, call me Dick Cheney if you must. I pity your jaded, overdressed asses.

Where are you guys skiing that this is common enough to even make fun of? I see a total of about 4 people a season skiing in jeans. They are all beginners so get a pass. Am I missing something?

There's a guy that I see at Mohawk frequently, always in jeans and sometimes a cowboy hat on non-windy days. Other than that, I've only seen one person in jeans this season and another person in a football jacket, both over MLK weekend at Sunapee.

Two minutes of my life I want back.

A skiing in jeans t-shirt? Deja vu?

And you want 25 bucks for it?

 

[bdfreetuna]

I'll be skiing in jeans come April and hopefully May... in 50-60 degree weather up on Paradise, Church or Jay Ridge for the last big outings of the season.

Also, wearing a T-Shirt. But not that one.

Then again who knows maybe I'll switch it up and put on a sport coat and slacks this spring. Who gives a crap? Are we all having fun?

One of the girls in the video was pretty hot so overall I gotta say, nice job.
