I rarely let my skis out of my sight. You gotta be on your shit because other shady people probably want your skis. Not saying it's anyone's fault, but it's preventable. I carry my shit in with me ALWAYS at brighton. Highest amount of younger people = highest amount of assholes with no respect for other people's shit. it's the way the world works.
that said, if I ever see someone riding austin's skis at brighton, I am whooping the FUCK out of them.
