Most embarrassing moment on the slopes.

This is not a story about me but a thug little kid thinking he could frontflip off of a knuckle. He skied pretty fast and didn't fully commit to it and superman'd ab 15 feet in to the landing. Everyone laughed but I felt bad.

Once I had skied for like 2 seasons I started hitting boxes and stuff, I tried to 360 on a dancefloor and fell to my side 3 times in a row. I was so embarresed but that's not even bad compared to everyone elses' stories though.
 
To end my season this year my first run of the day it was really windy and I got to the top of the jump line and saw a couple people nuckle and I figured it wasn't clearable so buzzed me decides to straight line into the jump sitting down on my skis well I came in hot and when I decided to stand up it was too late I sent the jump trying to stand up and flew back seat and landed to what I assume flat directly on my hip dislocating and sending my broken hip into my pelvis shattering that also. All over some dumb shit

Not my story but a good one nonetheless. Doing instructor training with a bunch of mates, its been a pretty good day so we decide to play chicken on the chairlift. Pretty simple concept; stand up as long as you can (I.e. chair pushes you along) then sit down just before the end of the landing ramp. I should add that we were on snowboards at the time. So we get to about a metre before the end and most people are starting to sit down sharpish. The guy next to me prevailed however up to around 30cm before the end. Finally, after a commendable effort, he starts to sit but doesnt manage to swivel 90° (as hes on a board) so he's kind of perched on the edge of the seat. I grab him to try to haul him up but he's a fairly big lad. The chair starts to rise, he's yelling "drop me!" so before we get too high, I drop him and he falls into the roped off powder pit. This was in front of a packed lift queue. Naturally, the patroller asks him wtf he's doing, he mumbles something about his foot slipping on the binding and sheepishly has to wait for the next chair on his own. I was pissing myself with laughter for most of the ride
 
Was in a clinic with some fellow instructors the other day for halfpipe teaching and to get over there we had to take the green trail thats the classic loop-around-the-mountain trail that every jerry wants to take, so its flooded with people who dont know how to really ride/ski.

We were going through as a group and I was going through people in the front of the pack like there was no big deal. All of a sudden a snowboarder goes down in front of me so i cut to the hard left and plan to ride the edge of the trail to go around him. Unfortunately when he tries to get up on his toeside, he slides out to the left AGAIN since he leaned super awkwardly to get up.. and at this point I have no time to stop, nor do I have anymore room to go left as it was a drop into dense woods/water pipe.

As expected, I slam into the guys snowboard, fly forward, and go flying ass-first into the woods. At this moment I think im going to die as I slam into a tree, but thankfully land in powder between two trees. (I have no idea how I didnt get hurt - was a bit in shock)

Another instructor comes flying over to me to see if im ok and keeps telling me to say something and I just cant talk cause I didnt believe I wasn't hurt..

Struggled a shit ton to unwrap myself from the trees and then I ended up looking like a snowman covered in powder..

Felt like a total dweeb for eating shit in front of everyone like that while in a clinic. Esp after hitting a down snowboarder.
