That old guy with the overflowing beard skiing the moguls. You see him ripping it up under you on every lift ride.

Seriously life ambition right here.

Anybody going to join me?

 
my grandpa was born in 1933 making him 74 and he skis 125+ days a year

but he doesnt ski on the sabbath thats the only thing ima change when i get old
 
i was thinking about that because psychology is a really interesting subject. but i decided i really don't want to teach or listen to peoples problems all day. now i am decided on either a marine biologist or a children's toys enginer.
 
I truly have respect for some of those guys. my grandpa skied well into his 70's and only stopped when he got sick and passed away. he was a doctor, not a ski bum, but he still found time for it.

 
i rode up the gondola at killington with this 65 year old who called a snowboarder an asshole for "taking up a seat with his board." He was fuckin sweet, i want to be him when i grow up. He also claimed to ski 1,000,000 vertical feet every year, but he used to ski 1,500,000 vert. ft before he had double knee replacement surgery. He made for an entertaining gondola ride
 
im headin toward paramedication. jea jea. then when i get old and grey i can be a bitchy ski patroller saying "back in my day..."
 
haha, I love guys like that. I was on once with this guy with a heavy boston accent telling us all his party stories and he called all the next snow search kids "bastads, but they're good." he told us to become lifties so we could get some pussy and his wife got pissed.
 
your description sounds like jesus

im going to be a radiologist when i grow up

i need something that can support me

i have it planned that i will go to some small 2000 populated town in the north of BC and work at the hospital and do xrays and stuff

 
i used to ski with this fella that was in his late eighties. he was one of the original ski patrollers on the mountain, and even though he didn't work there anymore they let him wear a vest and not have to pay for lift tickets. he even had a slope and a patrol hut at the top of a lift named after him. it was crazy too cause he had breathing problems, so he always had to have an oxygen tank on him... which means he skied with it too. but he was killed a couple of years ago over the summer in a car crash. i was pretty upset to learn about that.
 
im gonna be a famous rapper, ive been saying that since i was like 12...i just need to learn the whole rapping thing first. shouldnt be that hard...look at soulja boy.
 
not exactly though i do want to stay in the ski industry work for some core company and ski a ton and not have to give up skiing like a ton cause if i had to i would be sad
 
i want to be one of those methed out groomers who skis all day and works all night and never sleeps

or

i wanna be a dish washer, dirty poor, ski bum who bums cigs off people in the parking lot
 
hahahaha, leave it to ns for someone to come up with that. now all I have to do is find one of your posts and edit it like that...
 
life is crazy like that. that's really sad to hear that a guy like that holding on to what he loves despite health problems remaining strong and on the hill to suddenly go like that.

i actually saw a mono skier hit this small kicker got like a foot of air haha

one time my friend and i were on a lift at sunday river, and this old guy was sitting next to us, foaming at the mouth, no joke, he told us about all the places he'd ski and was going to ski which was a ton. he was cool other than that he was foaming at the mouth
