Identifying other Newschoolers

Newschoolers, I have a modest proposal for how we should go

about identifying each other:

Some of you may be familiar with the TGR custom of a call

and response to identify fellow mags upon meeting for the first time. Essentially, one person asks “Have you got

change for a nickel?”, to which the other, if they are in the know, responds

with something like “Fuck’n A!” (though I understand there is still some debate

as to what the proper response is).

To the best of my knowledge (and searchbarring), there is no

Newschoolers equivalent of “hitting someone up for change”. This is a grave oversight of culture and

should be remedied immediately. I

propose the following – We should “ask for directions”.

By this, I mean the first person would ask some variation of

– “Do you know how to get to Chad’s

Gap from the Alta parking lot?”, to which the proper response would obviously

be “Ski patrol blew it up.”

Hmm…this might not be so modest after all. In fact, I think this is a damn good idea and

well overdue.

Please discuss…..
 
If you were meeting someone then wouldn't you know what they wore and just call out there name? Or is this for like when you are skiing alone, didn't plan on meeting anyone and just need do find a fellow NSer to ski with....
 
why not just ask, hey are you on newschoolers? if thats what your talking about... its worked everytime ive met someone that way
 
I agree man, TGR has the best system. It's gonna sound weird to a passer by who isn't on the site, but not overly weird. I have an NS sticker on my skis but that may not be spotted right away because it's directly behind one binding.

"Do you know how to get to Chad's?" Is a good one, but we need more opinions!

A response doesn't really matter, because if they know about it then they'll just be like yo what's up anyway.
 
haha this is such a sweet idea. I rock a big NS sticker, but this idea is still sweet. I like the chad's question.
 
wasnt there a picture awhile ago that was titled how to recognize an NSer and it was a kid saying JEA!! and the other responding with JEA!!
 
we should also have something to say if someone from the TGR boards asks us for change, like "Go fuck yourself hippy" or something
 
When I see XL clothes and twin tips on anyone aged 13 to 20, I ask "whats your NS screen name"?

In my experience, everyone fitting that description has heard of NS.
 
All the people from my school wear xxl stuff, twin tips (almost all PE and fujis, don't know why...) and none of them have newschoolers, they all suck though...but there are probable 15 kids at my school with either PE or Fujis and mayb 3 that have other twins...it is weird.
 
i like this idea but asking is no big deal. and worst case a person says no and you say "you should probably get on that"
 
Ok,

So next time I'm in a lift line I'm gonna yell Cool story hansel!

Or either How do you get to Chads Gap from the bottom of Alta?!?!

And if noone answers look at the ground haha.

BISHOP YOU SHOULD STICKY THIS ONE OR FINALIZE IT!!!!
 
bahahaha! just yelling out in the lift line "does anybody know how to get from chads gap to the bottom of alta?!!?" would be hilarious...i can only hope i get to witness that someday
 
I ask everyone with twin tips if they are on NS. It can get pretty awkward sometimes, but its awesome to meet fellow nsers. Oh and one time a gaper asked if thats where I went to college... fail!~
 
if you see a kid in a xxl warriors jersey and an xxl red sweatshirt with brown pants and armada ar6's from last year, ask him how to get to chad's from the bottom of Alta. That's me and i ride squaw sometimes
 
this isn't a new concept.. wasn't one of the ideas to wrap that bright tape stuff around your pole. There has been threads before dicussing how to recognize a fellow nser. But yeah, usually hey you on ns is good enough.
 
fucking great. chads gap ftw. abut there shouldnt be one answer...you can answer it any way. ski patrol blew it up, you cant, mack dog owns it...etc.
 
ive only ridden there 3 times out of 6 this year because my dads a homo but that's another story. i was there during the gaper filled presidents day weekend last.
