Close Calls on the Lift?

ive seen people do that, cept it was offa catskinner into the park in whistler. that way they didnt need a park pass and the didnt have to ride the lift all the way up. they jumped off and landed on the take off of a jump, only like 12 feet

----------------------

my school mates always said that they would fuck anything that could walk. i never saw why i had to limit myself.
 
When I was 5 and learning how to ski on the Snoqualmie Rope-tow, i had a breakthrough one day and realized how fun it was to go fast. I didnt have much control tho... and yeah, i clotheslined myself on the rope tow going pretty fast. If was really funny, they shut the thing down for a half house because of me.

Best chair story I have was at Stevens on the Big Chief Chair. It's end is built out of wood because its really steep, and it can have a reeeeeeally steep and icy unload slope. So anyways, this guy in front of me didnt keep his ski tips up all the way i guess, but caught them on the wooden edge. His skis popped off and then he tried to get off the chair in his boots, but slipped on the ice and slid down the whole slope on his face. I was laughing so hard when i got off.

i was teaching with this one 4-5 yr old who had never ridden a lift before, so i put my arm around him so i can lift him up just a little, and he was fine. as soon as i said 'ok, stand up' he plastered himself against the seat back and wouldnt stand up. by this time i was already being pushed off the lift and couldnt get my arm free or back onto the chair. my arm pulled him right off the lift onto the ground on the downslope. liftie stopped the lift and i was pretty embarressed, as i was clearly an instructor. the kid didnt cry or get scared or hurt. i freaked me out though

one time it was early in the season and they had those plastic things with holes down instead of snow on a part of the lift line and i was pusstin on my pole staps and my tip dug into a hole and i lifted the huge mat up and then it ended up dragging me down. about a 15 ft drop to grass. the whole time my friend on the lift just laughed at me instead of helping, and the guy never stopped the lift

 
ive gotten many poles stuck. and once when i got them stuckthe whole chair ran me over while getting off. i also sprained my left ankle trying to touch the lift tower with my leg, i touched it.

i was on a lift at keystone or somethin, werin a backpack. at the top, i tried to get off but it was snagged. so i was all bouncin around tryin to get it unstuck- the lifties didnt bother to stop the lift- and finally i pulled hard enough that it ripped the shoulder strap right off, it sucked.

last year a little girl died in France she got cauhgt in one of those magic carpet things. True story. Once I sat too far on the left and I was sitting on the arm of the chair then I fell 2 seconds later not too high tho.

at Blue Knob they have a lift that you can get off half way up the hill...well I was not paying attention and holding my poles between my legs and they got caught and snapped right in half

Estctst101 got the last one . Here is a new riddle:

When you ride The Peak chair at Whistler just before you ge to the top and that little ridge/cliff look straight down, gives the feeling your about to run into the ground, but yeah remember to get off coz the end is only a metre or two later.

Was on Solar Coaster Express when it broke down for about 40 minutes in some nice cold weather, got a free half day lift ticket out of it.

Last year we had a 4 person lift, and somehow 3 of us got on one side... Were goin up the life and switchin sides... And the fuckin snow bank was so high on one of the lifts, both mine and my friends ski's got caught and torn off, they had to stop the lift and give us our ski's and we got off the lift with no ski's on, everyone was like wtf...

I dont care if i get there 1st or last just if i can ski i am happy

So what not evry 1 can like near a good mounatin with a terain park so u cant get as good as other people.... So think about that before u mock some one cause there not as good as you and they have to deal with what they have they r what are pushing the sport because they try and have nothing so they work to get something
 
most interesting story ive had on a lift didnt happen on snow it was over this past summer me and my friend went mt biking at mt snow and were going up the lift and my friend was being all bad ass and he like got up on his knees and hes like lets see you do that

so i get up on my knees and stand up

so he sees that and stands up and starts jumping on the lift

so i stand up turn around and take a piss off of the lift it fuckin sucked because it like burned for some reason

sware to god its a true story i dont want some stupid fuck saying pfft you didnt piss off the chair lift cuz i did

and then this other time me and my friends for some reason decided to take off our boots and go up the lift and the liftie was cool with it cuz he was a cool guy it was awesome cuz we got to boot ski down the mountain one of the best times of my life

go big or go home
 
once the wind was so ridiculous it turned my chair like 90 degrees so i was facing the ground practically and i didnt have a bar down or anything so i grabbed on to the back bar. twas scary

shants; theyre not quite shorts, but not quite pants

Gretch haha my friend would do that on purpose all the time with rental poles then try to hit the target at the garbage can then go inside and get new poles and do it again

 
once my pole strap got stuck on the chair somehow, i got off and it kept going

another time my jacket got soo frozen to the chair i went to get off and i stuck to the chair and was hanging by my jacket until the liftee noticed, no joke it was hilarious

 
sometimes i poke the big lift supporting poles on the way up with my poles but im always scared theyll get stuck and my arm will get pulled out of its socket or something

shants; theyre not quite shorts, but not quite pants

8-10 years ago..there was so much snow at Alpine Meadows in CA, that they had a day where you were allowed to jump off the lift at certain points where the powder was close enough to the chair(and deep enough). I was too young to do it back then..but I though that was the coolest shit ever. I wanted to do it so bad.

that is quite jibtastic, sir.

oh, i have 2 more

when i was in junior high, i was riding the lift with a kid in my school who was 3-4 yrs younger than me. we got on the lift and as we were going up, he didnt sit down, needless to say i was 20 ft up pulling him up y the cost...not fun to say the least

and last year, opening weekend at killy, the gondola stoped for 45 min. i was stuck up there with my bro, and tj and ronnie, sketchy no matter how close you guys are. we had made living arrangements just in case... haha, me and ronnie get the benches to sleep on, and tj's helmet was the chamber pot... needless to saywe didnt get to sue the moutnain for being left up there all night, crap
