The Charger – skis every run (not most, every run) hard and fast.

The Specialist – skis bumps or powder or trees, etc. on every run they take if conditions give them that option.

Fun Day Out – gets there whenever, takes a couple runs, takes a break, ski, lunch, some more runs, break, one more, bar, it’s all good, glad to be there.

I’ll stop there, you add to the list and maybe some good thread ideas will come out of it.

The Conservative - Finds one or two runs that have good conditions and rips them all day.

That's it

....ROTFLMAO....!!! , but I think it could be = "skis only bottom 50% of mountains visited"..or more accurately= "have taken hundreds of lessons and still ski slow and avoid the adventurous terrain"

the jibronsky the wannabe-tag-along found in nearly every gang of park rats...the extra wide, unstable stance but he points them at the booters...and looks like a cat being thrown out of a window

but you've gotta give him some credit...he's throwing caution to the wind and going for it...to the delight and dismay of the rest of us.

once we have established the all the type's what to do?

make t shirt
find a way to weave it in to a joke.

identify your type...or hybrid of types

Yeah we can ID or maybe some other ideas will come out of it too, Lets see if anything else gets added today and make a thread(s) out of the results tomorrow.
