Yeah knew a girl who crashed on a spring day wearing a one piece bathing suit. Pretty bad road rash.
There was a young lady boarding in a rather "cheeky cut" 1 piece suit at Mount Snow a couple of weekends ago. It became quite evident that she had fallen at some point based on the case of road rash her backside was displaying o_O :eek:

Even if I’m skiing in a T-shirt I still wear gloves. When skiing up on Mount Washington in the spring I’ll still throw on a wind breaker for the run down in case of a fall.

I bit it skiing in shorts last year when I hit a super soft/slow patch near the bottom of a run. Definitely left a nice raspberry on the side of my calf.

Unfortunately I have scars on my fingers from crashing at K on a May day. Young, stupid, and not wearing gloves *sigh*
I had a pretty nice fall a few years ago at Sugarbush where I cut my hand up on a warm spring day. It was the last run I was planning to take for the day too. I didn't intend to ski without gloves, I just happened to forget them at the condo and didn't feel like going back. Now I always keep an extra pair of at least some thin gloves in my backpack.

I was skiing on SS at K on one of the final days skiing in shorts and a t-shirt no gloves. It was 70 degrees out. I hit a rock on a trough between the bumps with my downhill ski and caused the tips to cross and I supermanned it. Pretty good raspberry on left knee, right forearm and palms of my hands, So I took a break and had a beer and went back out = makes you pay attention more that id for sure.

i love a good spring skiing road rash

i always forget my thin gloves, and i hate wearing my regular gloves when its even the slightest bit warm. my hands run hot. i ski gloveless a lot. blisters on my inner thumbs from the poles. because i also always forget to bandage them before skiing gloveless.

What pocket do you put the RFID pass in? Do you put it up...nevermind.
I was in a rather crappy part of my local town speaking with an apartment manager on the sidewalk and our conversation was interrupted by a commotion on the street .
As we looked down the one way street traffic was stopped by a rather large naked man chasing a almost naked woman weaving around the cars. He was a carry a metal table leg in his hand and swinging it ..,,,,,bad aim thank god.
The police show up and cop #1 gets him spread eagle palms on a brick wall and begins to frisk him ....gets to his butt and stops, scratches his head ....pauses and cuffs him. No ID hiding in the crack I guess.
