Things you hate about skiing

[JD]

People that boot pack up skin tracks...

Amen! or for that matter...people the ski on skin traks or boot packs. Don't mind if they're getting across a flat area, but on steeps it's just a no-no.

I hate having to rekick a step ...

You started it... But couldn't go the distance...

Problem is - there's always someone new to these debates... So this and "Snowboarders suck" will always be big debates/arguments... They have been forever...

And if you notice - i can sit idly by but at some point I have to interject my own .02... But only when i have a "posting window"

What you stalking me around threadville now? Its not that I couldn't go the distance, I didn't want to be an enabler anymore! 8)

and I've observed, first hand your "idle sitting by"!

but in that vein....
I hate people the go out of bounds at a resort w/o a clue where they are going.

Way to set an example... I'm disgusted..
And i demand ski patrol wear hairnets...

Prices which are way out of wack with typical inflation. And prices that are out of wack with the concept of growing returns.

If I go on a weeknight someplace for 4 hours, pegging for a 45$ lift ticket is silly. The lifts still running, it wont cost ANY more money, or lose any more money, charging 20$ and getting twice as many people.

HAHA you wish... Want a sip?

No - I'm actually just having fun... Poking and prodding- stirring up trouble... Playing devils advocate... Protecting freedom... trolling... Your and easy target... I zoomed in on you immediately... like shootin fish in a barrel...

And the best thing is - i got you off the thread...

Just another day in paradise when i dont feel like working... 8)

Don't really have the time or effort as I'm trying to write code in between our little treatise's! But I'm glad I could entertain you and stroke your ego!

I'm in the same boat... But I'm done with the code and I'm writing "best practices"...

That being said.. i hate it when I'm on call and skiing and actually get a call.. (wow another bad thread - Cell Phone use on the hill)

Lugging a ski bag and a boot bag on the subway on the way to the train/airport/etc. Fun fact: a transpack XT1 with your boots in it is *just* wide enough to not fit through a subway turnstyle. Take it off before you walk through to avoid being the person who gets stuck in the turnstyle.

Hysterical.

Thank you for that image.
