Do you ever hate skiing?

I'd say a good 15-30% of the time I'm at the hill, especially hiking rails trying to do/learn something new, I'm generally frustrated as fuck and not at all enjoying being there.

anyone know the feel?
 
i can get a little frustrated when i can't land a trick i know i should be able to... but i just remind myself that i'm fucking skiing and i take a little break from the park to get back to having as much fun as possible
 
oh, okay.

Exactly how I feel sometimes. Except in the early season there is no "break from the park". That's all there is.
 
I love skiing but I definitely understand what the OP is getting at. Occsionally something won't work, you know you can do the trick, you can feel it in the muscle memory but it won't play out, and then the rage happens. It was worse with skateboarding but I definitely get it with skiing too.
 
I have never hated skiing, ever. Honestly, if you start getting frustrated, stop what you're doing and just ride. I rarely hike shit 'cause riding 'round and doing fun, creative shit is just too much fun.
 
I get frustrated sometimes but I don't think it would be possible for me to hate it. When I'm seshing in my back yard and get pissed and quit, about an hour after I storm inside I always want to put my stuff back on and do it again.
 
I only don't enjoy it when I fall pretty hard in the first few runs and then have little confidence and a headache for the rest of the day. Still won't hate it though
 
never, when you finally land it=best felling everim not trying to be sexist but its probably because you're a girl (getting stresed more easy and overthinking it)
 
i know where your coming from.... theres days in the east where its mad icey and the snowmaking is annoying the park sucks and is hard as a rock.

its frustrating but those are the days i have fun with friends and just casually slide rails with some friends have some laughs.
 
if you can't land a trick you've been trying for hours you gotta just take a nice lap and forget about it for the day.

If your girlfriends is watching you hike a down rail waiting for you to stomp that 2 on, you're doing it wrong.
 
the only shitty part about skiing is getting injuries but everything else is so fun and should be fun to the majority of people on this site
 
i had some shitty days back when i had awful bindings with horrible pre-release issues and poorly fitting boots
 
the worst, like no way you're going to try anything new when the landing is just ice and if you fall you're guaranteed bruised ribs for a week.
 
Not really, I might get bored with it for the day because of the terrain, but then I'll watch some vid and I'll be pumped to try out whatever I saw the next day.
 
i HAAATTE when a lot of snow falls so that its really deep and stuff. worst part about skiing.
 
the only thing i hate is at the end of the day when my legs are fucking noodles, and my feet are killing me, and I've got a pair of skis which feels like they weigh 1,000 lbs over my shoulder and I'm walking what feels like 15 miles to the car...in ski boots....that, i truly hate. all i want to do is collapse. but that's always after the absolute best days where i've skied my balls off, so s'all good.
 
I've never felt that was. Even tho my mountain is ice 90% of the time you just get over that and have fun. And to me hiking and not landing a trick is just as fun as hiking and landing.
