How To Pass Time On The Lift ?

ok im getting really sick of the lift rides being like 10 minutes and the runs being like 2 so other than music what does everyone do to pass the time on the lift ??
 
there was a time last season when i was always skiing by myself. i got real tired of having to strike up conversations with gapers, so i started bringing a book to read on the lifts. it was sick. it has to be a pretty small book, pocket size, but it makes the lift rides fly by
 
listen to music, talk to the person next to you, smoke a bowl, holler off the lift to give props when someone does something sick.
 
just scream marco and see who screems polo

Always gives me a good laugh

And if you keep doing it everybody says polo

Makes my day

But if im by myself i just listen to my music and chill and think about things sounds gay but it passes time
 
does anyone else play the "penis" game? everyone on the lift takes turns saying/ yelling "penis," each time progressively louder, till someone is shouting PENIS at the top of their lungs. guaranteed laughs
 
ahha yeahh^

Or when your going up the park lift when people hit boxxes and rails scream out sound effects it pisses people off but you sure get a laugh outta it
 
My hill has slow lifts. To get from the base to the top of the mountain can take anywhere from 30min to an hour (depending on stop/slow times)... needless to say, we spend a lot of time on the chair during a day.

the main chair we lap takes 17 minutes I believe? We pass the time by talking about current events, who's hit what on the mountain, talking about happenings around town... oh yea, and we can crack a beer, smoke a joint, smoke a cigg, all in relaxed fashion. On normal snow years I'll be lapping the chair and not give a fuck if I ride alone or not. but this year we haven't had shit for snow, so there's been days where I've sat at the bottom of the mountain for up to an hour waiting for someone I know to come by for me to ride the chair with.

I like the reading a book idea though, I might do that this week.
 
idk what the game is called but you "shoot" people with your pole right before they fall its really fun, wave at people and see who waves back, yell" you dropped your pocket" or something like that and see who stops.
 
U could stash snowballs in ur pocket n throw them at kids otherwise, have a big old fashion circle jerk while listening to madonna
 
Burn one, ride will be over before you know it.

P.S. don't do it every lift ride or you will end up spending a lot of time in the restaurant eating(personal experience)
 
play snow golf...for ppl who dont know you load your skis with snow make snowballs and try to make them in stuff off the lift different things are different points like inside a snowgun is 2 gets really fun
 
Haha this is a fun one. At my mountain there is a machine that sells bouncy balls- those are even bettter. Or that day where we found a 2 gallon bag of ketchup in the cafeteria....
 
dont get me started on katchup.anyway your going down a semi difficult hill, act like your a newb
open the katchup and fall and squrit it all over the place pulling a tanner hall ankles act.then after making a scene just get up and ski away
 
i like to masturbate... both myself and the guy(s) next to me... oh yeah, and smoke weed. that's a hobby i would HIGHly recommend.

omg, i'm hilarious.
 
yell too random people they dropped their swimming googles. sooo much fun,cus people actually stop and look.
 
Move to a little hill that serves the park with a tow rope. Problem solved and you can get in a whole days worth of hits in an hour.
 
since I am physicaly higher and thus superior to all of my lowly counterparts occupying the snow. When I ride my majestic throne to the top of my land where my castle resides, I am comonly known to inforce loyalty from my pesants whome I graciously offer my land while overseeing their operations from above as would god, I like to spread fear upon these vile simpletons to ensure their loyalty to me, the king of the mountain! If ever any scum pesant dares look up... I shall swallow him with all my wrath and dispose of his remains in the evil volcano of torment! however if a lady happens to look my way, I will allow her to sit on my throne.... to show her apreciation towards her king!
 
the last time i played that we waited too long and there was a little bit of a drop and my chic friend ( who is prone to shoulder disclocations) disclocationed her shoulder i vowed to retire.

if im alone i usually call someone and talk i wedge my phone under my bandana/helmet to keep my hands warm

 
one of the last times i did, i we were getting to the turn around, so i nudged the bar up, cuz i didnt care if i lost, and ended up hitting my friend bottom lip. it bled for a bit, but we're cool now.
