Most Annoying thing about skiing park

slow/in the way people when you're trying to rip fast top to bottom laps, and when you get stuck behind a snowboarder who insists on hitting the rails as slowly as possible
 
True story: within a week after Henrik's nose butter trip at X, I saw a youngin probably around 12 wearing his goggles backwards on his helmet.

Also the literal butthurt from constantly falling.
 
Small children, their parents who have no idea what a terrain park is, over-zealous ski patrol, gapers, and other assorted idiots who fill up 70-90% of the park at any given moment.

I actually don't mind this one. I get that most people do, and I see where you're coming from, it just doesn't grind my gears as much as when I plow over that same kid in the landing of a jump because he doesn't know what he's doing and he should've started smaller. I feel like when kids use the lips as jumps they're just getting their feet wet and staying out of the way of the larger jumps (as well as preventing injuries and jump shutdowns), which I appreciate. Everyone's gotta start somewhere.
 
Wut?

The most annoying thing to me is when the park hasn't been changed at all in 3 weeks in mid season.

It get's boring lapping the same features. I eventually go rip groomers or send cliffs to hard pack just to change it up.
 
Kids who claim more than they ski.

Icy landings.

Popping out and falling on your face when you try to butter on one ski..

Kids who cut in front of you when you're about to hit a jump and they proceed to land halfway through the gap

 
Oh god, this is me. I started skiing park when I turned 17, and a year later, can only do safety grabs, (sometimes) 180s, and ride-on boxes (can't even do rails)

Meanwhile, at sunridge, some grade 5 kid is pulling corks, and twist-in/twist-out rails.

Makes me feel super depressed
 
i remember when i first started skiing park i would just hit the party boxes and 180 off the side of the bigger lips to what were the scary impossible rails. nowadays tho they also make tiny jumps for noobs to learn on. if the lip's wide enough and they go off the side no one looses.
 
this is such a huge problem at park city

also people taking over features/lines of features to film

if you see me coming and still drop in slower and in front of me, im snaking you or fucking up your shot doing tricks right behind you
 
>Dad cam

>Families doin sick park laps together

>TFW when an old man skiing says "You're no better than those darn snowboarders" because you like to smash you're expensive pieces of wood and fiberglass onto metal rails.

Feels bad man
 
thug white kids calling me or each other nigga, then realising im actually black and apologising. Has happened in 3 states multiple times.
 
Solutions:

1) Get a jacket the right size. Perhaps even a waterproof one.

2) Get poles that fit you. It makes cat-tracks and hiking much easier.
 
jackets? why would they wear a jacket? it's the winter and they're outside. jackets make no sense. 3xl tall hoodies are much more suited for winter

personally i'm just happy kids are using poles. too many look like snowlerbladers while failing miserably at try to look like henrik
 
yeah its good and bad. I grew up riding all mt. so i would come to the same shitty park as part of my run. at coughpccough its sick cause i can ride park all day and then its new the next. Not sick when your sure you got a trick you worked on a few days earlier and just missed and come back to some completely different feature. good and bad.
 
How is that annoying? I've had situations where me and a couple friends would be at a party talking about park skiing when a mutual friend starts asking about it and within a couple weeks, he was out hitting boxes and rails with us. It was actually pretty cool.
 
Riding the park alone all the time because you don't have a crew because they are to busy skiing hard pack in the BC "real snow". rich White kids trying to be thug. Also i swear to god snowboards hit everything at half speed so while you're waiting for them to clear more assholes on burritos snake you
 
I saw a nine year old learning them and calling them 360s on. I was so confused... Not for the 360 part, but more so that a nine year old was learning 270s on.
 
all the damn stupid full tilt kids hiking a damn flat bar and getting in the way of people just trying to flow down the park and hit everything. you mess up our flow every time with your little 2mph ballerina tricks..
