is there any ritual you do before you ski? or anything that you do to bring snow? i personally stretch , and do a little dance because im going skiing. however, in montana, to bring snow, we sacrafice some virgins, burn incense, and generally yell a lot

i have been known to slide down mountains on occasion, like every saturday and sunday november through may
 
i usually put all my stuff out on my floor exactly how i would wear it the next day so i can throw it on in two minutes tops, i get completely ready like i could go that second

wake up, get dressed, forget my pass, sleep on the 5 minute drive (thats right bitches, 5 minutes from the resort)

holy shit!!!111!1! he has more hten one namne??>?? omggg!! what a sux0rz@!! LOL

I wrote the words to this song on the back of a photograph

Behind your back it goes

A little something like this is way to big to miss....
 
for me, i get all my skiing shit together, and haave it all ready. Then have my lunch packed and clothes together then leave. at the hill, i usually take a few runs to get a feel for the snow that day then, if i am going to the park i will do 1 run throught to look at all the features and how the are setup/different from last time then i start to session.

Depends, i usually only ski at night, so i usually argue with my mom then drive up and go skiing. But if im going up with Fred and Randall, i will usually get 3 or 4 calls saying their going to be late, so i usually blast music and watch forward or strike three.

KNUCK IF YOU BUCK BOY

The Michael Jordan, the Babe Ruth, The Wayne Gretzky of Newschoolers.com idiots needs no introduction.... but here\\\'s one anyways. John Andrew Steward, a rich kid from Georgia, will not hesitate for a moment to tell you exactly what he\\\'s thinking (and I use that term loosely). His over 2000 posts make him one of the most prolific retards on our list, and he\\\'s become something of a legend on this website, representing the ever-growing intellectually devoid section of the membership here at NS.com. In fact, when the Golden Wheelchair award was first conceived, there was some talk of naming it after him, as a dedication. Also among his qualifications are his being named so often to Crystal-Needs-A-Park\\\'s honorary hall of fame for stupid posts, that the proprietor was forced to abandon the project: Atlantaski simply flooded it too quickly. Further, he had more entries into the original Hall of Fame for Stupid Posts than any other member of Newschoolers.com. Though he went into temporary retirement a few months ago, he has recently returned with a vengeance and, far from missing a beat, has stepped his stupidity up to new heights, recently capturing a GW award for mocking Trevor Peterson. He is fully deserving of his place near the top of this list

 
I set a list of goals for the day. then i try and do what i said i would... It almost never happens, i usualy get hurt first.

wake up

eat

shower/brush teeth ect.

get dressed

go outside, walk across a parking lot directly onto the run! (i love ski-in/ski-out)

 
I always put my boots on the same way, but only because I'm usually still asleep and the routine is good for not forgeting shit. And before I push off for any line I have to knock my poles together together twice behind my back and then I'm good to go.

Wow, you shit in the MORNING? I've just realised that every day for about ten years now I've shat at four o'clock in the afternoon, with no exception. Must be weird to shit in the morning.

And... I don't really have any rituals.

usualy when i get to the hill and i know that i am go ing to be in the park all day, i put my skis down, line them up, plant my poles and jump in to the bindings, if i dont make it in, its a sign im going to have a bad day if i spend all day in the park, those are the days where i usualy hike bowls and shit.

I quickly stand before my skis and pray to the snow gods that be, then kneel down and say more snow please in ancient arabic as I rock back and forth. Works well.

Under my name It sais beginner.

I am very discouraged to the fact that the site adminster didn't look at my profile or ask before doing something like this. I may be new to this website but I have been skiing more then most of you.

PLEASE research or ask before making such assumptions like this one.

 
Ummm... I always put on my ski gear before I go skiing. Does that count as a ritual?

i am usually hungover b4 skiing because i party the night b4 so i usually drink a beer, n then go

'Do I look like a fucking people person?'

'This isn't an office. It's Hell with fluorescent lighting.'

'If I throw a stick, will you leave?'

 
I am addicted to hot waxing my skis. Every night before I go sking I always wax em up while watch ski flicks. My college is a laptop required school so I bring some ski dvds to class with me and just watch them all day. Sometimes i think i have a problem

 
well im usually too lazy to wax my skis so i jut leave them all season. then i smoke all the way to the ski area, 40 min, then once there get my gear on and then meet with others coming out. smoke a blunt or 2 before hitting the snow and then more as we ski

Rituals... well...

I wake myself up at 4:00, and rinse my body in a sacred tup and paint my face with red ochre. Then, as soon as the sun rises in the small village where I live, and begin to chant an old indian warcry while dancing around a campfire left ablaze from the previous night. Then, my family prepares to feast, at which point we sacrifice a small goat in celebration. After I am full, and my family agrees the timing is right, I wipe the red ochre from my face, pray to my gods, and get ready to hit the slopes.



I said get behind me.

I actually don't do anything. I'm an unorganized slob and usually wake up minutes before leaving to hit the slopes, giving myself only enough time to eat a small piece of fruit and to scramble and grab all my gear and go.

in the fall, when we have no snow, i usually randomly curse at god for not giving me snow whenever i am/or look outside. what a fucking basterd that god, gives me no snow ever.
