Steine's

Trying to find blame or reason in ski deaths would be a waste of time IMHO. Regarding difficult trails, I doubt if it matters how steep the slope is statistically. I once saw these patrollers take some stupid girl half way down Steine's on a sled. They were putting their own lives in more danger than her's had been. It's a consistent pitch and certainly if she made it half way down, I would think she could have made it the rest of the way by herself. If she was in the woods, that would be understandable, but she had just given up in the middle of the trail. That reminds me of the joke the female rep for Olin once told me on a chair lift. It seems a women had gone into the woods out of control and had attracted help from a patroller. When he arrived, he said to her >>You're the third pregnant woman I will have taken out of these woods this year.<< She replied quizzically >>Pregnant? I'm not pregnant.<< He gave her a hard look, moved closer and stated >> You will be when you get out of here.<<

Please, if you are referring to Hans, I never included him or the Loft in any way or manner regarding safety or responsibility. You are reading meaning into a neutral statement, a matter-of-fact footnote, which is typical of hard-core :flame: I suggest you read the posts without your baggage. Futhermore, I find it rather jeuvenal to try and analyse the situation and have posted in response to that.

Re: Fatality

That will open the possibility of liability. The guy was from Sharon and may have bought his equipment at Hans's The Loft. .

So a link is posted to an article, which provides some basic information about a skier/rider who probably got in over their head and had to check out early. Where in the article did the writer mention anything about faulty equipment?? Yes, while you don’t come out and directly link to the shop, the context of the 2 lines above is quite a troll....Why would someone type something like that?

Hardcore flame?? STFU you stupid p*ssy. Hows that? Oh yeah - learn to spell the word "helmet" (othter thread) mr wizard.

Sorry Greg

Also – someone ate it at K-mart up in the canyon today. (to keep the thread on subject)

All right. Gonna lock this one as I guess all points have been made and it seems beswift just can't refrain from trying to debate in just about any thread... :-?
