SKI PATROL-- who acutally likes em??

Just remember, hate on them all you want, but they're the ones who tow your ass down the mountain when you overshoot that 50 ft. table
 
Yeah, Mount Snow ski Patrol is super chill-they've def saved my ass a few times when I've gotten injured pretty bad...a couple of them even blaze with us when they're off duty just riding.
 
haha my friend hit an old man hauling ass switch opening day of the bird last year right above big emma, the old guy was so pissed and it was blatently my friends fault. After the old guy left (he wasa throwing a real shitfit) the patrol said to my friend "What a dick people like that think they own the mountain" I died laughing.
 
I have found that most people who hate the ski patrol are very bad skiers who think they are good. Generally, the ski patroll is there because they love to ski and will not give you any trouble if you know what you are doing. I also enjoy getting a ride to mad river pretty much whenever I want with a ski patroller...wadda nice guy
 
ski patrol suck, out of goin skiing 2ce this year so far (sad i know, but i cant get rides) ive been yelled at 5 times for goin to fast, goin "out of hte bounderys" and things like that
 
our ski patrol are pretty gay. they just wait around for someone to fall so they can flock to them... and when they arent doing that, they yell at us for having fun, sitting around.. boot sliding. completely not harmful stuff they yell at us for.so gay
 
well next time you go out of the boundry, i hope you hear a WHAAAAAOOOOMP

then you see the fracture line above you....and the 400 foot cliff below you.
 
seriously, and if the patrol yells at you for going to fast its usually because you look out of control. I've passed tons of patrols skiing fast but making turns, if you are just B-lining the entire hill without making turns and you are a goofy uncoordinated park rat you probably are going too fast
 
Generally, if the ski patrol is yelling at you, its because you are doing completely stupid, pointless shit like bombing down moderate groomers full of families and beginners, endangering other skiers for the sake of 2 foot airs off of the "jumps" with the blind/flat landings that happen to be right at the intersection of popular trails, etc. The funniest thing about the guys I see doing this shit is that they think that popping off of the 2-footer or straightlining down the middle of a beginner slope makes them "Xtreme" or something.

There's a time and a place for hauling ass and going big, but it's not on groomers that are jam-packed with five-year olds.
 
gosh, without ski patrol's avalanche control most of the wasatch would be too dangerous to ski 75% of the time
 
I was at steamboat last week are a kid cut in front of me going to fast and a patrol pulled his pass for going to fast in a slow zone
 
soooo true at bristol we have like 300 of them. they hide in the woods to catch people who "speed". as gay as that is i dont really have a problem with that. but they take everything so fucking personal they are starting to get our of controol
 
they blow, who ever fuckin calls dem if u brake a bone, fuckin pussys, i broke my femer, leg, colar bone, and 2 ribs, and fuck i ight getin on that damm tabogen
 
yeah steamboat this year... they have this new "slopewise" program, which means they can pull passes like its their job. i got my pass pulled for 2 weeks on the 5th day of the season for being on a closed trail.

the ski patrol pulled up beneath me and said, "that was a sick run wasn't it?"

"yeah dude this powder kicks ass"

"well this trail is closed. you need to give me your pass."

moral of the story-dont fuck around at steamboat.
 
ive got respect for patolers for saving my ass a couple times, but when they are dicks about ducking lines i get pissed
 
I find at the smaller resorts they have more of a power trip becuase there are fewer of them. At the larger resorts their used to the shit that goes on be it skiing out of bounds or what not. But at the smaller resorts they'll either yell at you, or go tell on you for the stupidest things. I just got yelled at today for having a snowball fight with a lifty. Who cares??
 
get this. im landin on this 40 foot table switch a ski patrol was cutting across the park, i nail the fucker not even seeing him i broke his leg and his wrist he trys to sue me, haha but that didnt go voer to well i hate fucmin ski patrol if i break my neck im still skiing away
 
it was amazing. yesterday for the frist time in my life a ski patroler did something helpful(when i'm not inujred they tend to just piss me off) the light was really flat and so he pulled branches off a pine tree and lined the lip and landing of our big jump it was very nice.
 
yea that's the key. you just have to be mellow-headed and remember "they're always right". Just swallow your pride so your pass doesn't get jacked
 
can't complain about them. i don't bother them and they don't bother me. once this year they were blowing snow on a run and it was all soft and they didn't groom it for about two hours and let people ride it while it still had all the rollers and whatnot on the run. it was real fun and they even let us build a little makeshift jump.
 
yea. i think its all in what hill you goto. cuz were i go they really arent any problem but i no some other hills were there just bitches
 
patrols are dicks. one guy from the patrol skis freestyle and hes pretty good at it. hes maybe 20 years old. he always asks some little guys (prob. 10 years old) to throw snowballs (i don't know what they are in english) at me and when i shout: "fuck you little kids! go back home and play with your pokemon cards!" the guy from patrol takes my lift ticket. he does this only cuz i'm better than him (im only 14 years old). i fucking hate him. he has done it to me two times, but now i just ignore the kids.
 
I like my ski patrol.. they all love me, really... but that's probably also cause my rnets patrol... but they're all laid back. To me, anyway.
 
Next time any of you guys that talk shit run into a tree and break your leg, I hope the ski patrol comes and laughs at you.
 
patrolers are cool, their just doin their job, cant hate on a guy for trying to keep people out of the hospital. i guess that means mine are cool.
 
at crystal the ski patrol arent whats bad, but theres these volunteer people called "safety patrol" that just stand on the hill and wait for someone to go fast past them and bitch their little hearts out
 
the ski patrol at my hill are all into tele-skiing, except they are just learning so they can't ski everything. Basically they can't even safely ski down to save us if we get hurt, what the hell is that? I understand they want to tele ski, but they shouldn't be patrolling. I feel like I would have to save myself, because they can't even ski well.
 
In Arizona, half the ski patrol will allow you to build jumps and they will even attempt them with you. The other half are more up tight and dont even like you to ski fast past the "slow" signs. But its okay, I am planning on working for them next year, and I am going to kick all the ski bladers out of the park.

MUHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH!
 
Come to think of it, i DO love the patrol at my hill. They'll all so fricken funny, they stay afterwards and drink beer and play asshole... whenever i see them on the hill they'll either make fun of me or start cracking stupid jokes. They're all dope. And they never get mad at me for shit... this is helped due to my rents being patrollers, but i mean, they're sstill all super cool, with the exception of a few i guess. But i guess all hills aren't as lucky...
