Dope-slap things I have done when skiing

I cracked a rib last season in some bumps, but it never occurred to me that my phone might have been a contributing factor. I wear my phone on a string around my neck (so I don't lose it while using it on the lift...). Hmmm...!

Haha that reminds me. When I was an instructor at Wachusett, I thought it would be fun to throw on the Orson (white polar bear) suit and go skiing with the kids. After awhile I got a little over confident and decided to make my skills into the park. I went off a jump and because seeing is so hard in those things, I overshot the landing and double ejected out of skis. I made sure to hold onto Orson's head as I slid down the mountain. It must have been hysterical to watch. The kids definitely got a kick out of it.

Ok, I'll ask. How'd the phone make out?

Nice!
In an attempt to gain respect from my students I decided to demonstrate a "tickler" so pulled a spread eagle over a tree. The takeoff went a little off center line, a branch caught the inside of my pants and ripped out the seam from ankle to ankle. I had to ski the remainder of the run to the lodge with a drafty pair of pants that were littering the White Mountain National Forest with fiberfill. The kids definitely enjoyed the show and the looks from the skiers/riders we passed.

Jumped in my buddies car at 5am to catch first tracks on a pow day at killington. This was one of those huge December storms from a few years ago. Got to the access road before I realized I forgot my jacket. Ended up spending $150 for a coat off a clearance rack to salvage the day.
Now I always do the mental check list twice before leaving the house and again when I stop at Dunkin before hitting the highway.

Wasn't going to bring it up again ...
My first season on night league I pole planted between my legs out of the start gate. Slid down on my face to the first gate.

Thinking I could gap that mogul line during a no-rules race. I was wrong. Luckily I went into the trees feet first....
Hope it wasn't a powder day!

69 other skiers/riders didn't question that you forgot your gear? Damn! This stranger danger thing has gotten WAY out of hand.
Unless it was a powder day, then I totally understand their silence.
