Park Etiquette?

i yell "drop!!!!!!!!" as loud as i can and everyone looks at me then i hit the rail or feature and i either fall or do a super easy trick. if snowboarders are sitting down try to jump over them on your way to the rail, haha
 
at my mountain you just move foreward a little after the last person that dropped to show that your going next but we really don't have lines or anything, just a large group of skiiers
 
"Excuse me, could you please take off your goggles so i can make eye contact" I need to figure out your intentions."
 
At my hill the amount you wait directly correlates to how good you are if you are really good or just slightly above average you can just straight lap and not wait at any feature and no one will complain the average kids will wait for like 10 seconds max or until their whole group is at the drop in and the kids who are just learning or not very good just wait a little bit longer but no one is waiting more then 30 seconds on a drop unless their waiting for someone
 
Here you just kinda form a line and when ur up u go if theres a snaker you cuss him out and hope you land on him.
 
See pottdog and the coggster? They are primed to mix it in the park. I can see it now....

Don' t just stand there....

Wait you turn.....

This is when I would sneak in yelling dropping and giving eyesignals and handgestures and having people assess my skill to determine if I should be allowed to do what I had just done.

Maybe the park should be divided into two sections one for hotlapping and one for bootgazing.... Kinda like the passing lane on a highway.
 
well there is usually a pile of snowboarders sitting, infront of them skiers. if someone doesnt call drop then there is like 5 second pause where everyone looks at each other like " ahhh who is goin?" thats when i just jump in.
 
if people are waiting around wasting everyone's time, go right on ahead. everyone at my mountain hate gapers, just go and have a good time. someone is bound to get pissed no matter what you do.
