this kinda goes with the lift stories. well has anybody taking like the little kids up on the chair lift and have to get them on and off. sometime this kids are so fucking funny and the things they say are so crazy. like this 3 yera old was like yea my dad fucking sucks at skiing i was like WHAT
 
haha yeah I taught ski school for 2 years. I must say some of the little 4 and 5 year olds with the cool parents are pretty bad ass. I had one kid with a teal one peice and Oakleys once... he was fuckin' G
 
Kids can be funny as hell, especially when you don't expect them to understand about certain stuff. For example, was teaching a little 6/7 (not sure) year old girl last season, she asked whether I had a girlfriend, when I replied that I did not, she said I must be gay (I am not gay btw). I am pretty sure I didn't know what gay was when I was that small.
 
Yeah, I was a little shocked as what to say, I didn't really want to explain the concept of drunken casual sex to her. I think I just laughed and said no, then got everone skiing again!
 
Where do they do that? Where I work we just have to ask nearby adults to help out, which can be a hassle because all the kids want to sit with their friends/me, so generally tend to hold up the line pissing about, especially the ones without poles. For the real shorties (3+4) we have sleds though, which are actually good fun, they are generally stoked, and you get to hook onto the back with your poles and get dragged along.
 
I have done adut and kids ski school at Killington and PCMR and have heard kids say some crazy things...once at killington with a group of young kids we came accrost one of thier dads on the trail...he was blazing and the son of the dad said that his dad smokes those funny ciggerites all the time...
 
so my manager was trying to help a kid get up, right next to the handle tow. the lift person didn't notice, and the handle smacked my manager across the face, breaking her nose. it was hilarious, painful haha
 
hahahah omg that just made my night imagining it happen and the guy holding his nose screaming ooooooooo shit oooooooooooooo my nose ooooooooooooo
 
How do you become an instructor??? Is it like do a basic medical course and then email the actual place that runs the mountain?

Well if i can't do that when i get out of school i'll do try out mountain patrol, basic medical expertise and then skiing around the mountain the whole day, i'd try to stay around a park, my reasoning would be because their could be accidents there :P
 
Some mountains don't allow ski patrol into the park, 'cause they might get injured themselves.

But yeah, you can do your course at one mountain then contact a different mountain or stay on the same one.
 
when i was younger, we used to get a bunch of snow on our skis and in our arms and then toss it off the lift at people.. this one time i accidentally dropped all the snow when the lift was over this bridge thing. it landed on a guy and he started yelling at me.

then we went in for lunch and my dad decided to sign us up for lessons.. it was with the same guy i dropped the snow on..

lets just say he took us on some doubles at age seven and i havent looked back since.. :)
 
the greatest sk ischool movie is Aspen Extreme from 1993...it is about "Two friends looking for adventure discover extreme skiing, wealth and seduction."
 
I always thought Ski School was much better than Aspen Extreme. Aspen Extreme tried too hard to be a serious movie. Ski School on the other hard, was all about titties, daffys, and neon clothing. Nice.
 
i like to ski at the end of their lines as they go down the slope and pretend im in their group. like zach davison in booter crunk
 
yeeeah. I think my parents were at snowbird when they were filming ski school if I'm thinking of the right movie. shows how old they are haha. I need to rent it again!

yeah, my laaaame ski school story is a few years ago I was at Killington on snowshed (green) under the two double chairs bombing down because normally no one goes over there and you can avoid beginners. so long story short ski school decided to do their stupid little snake of 5 year olds directly into my path. me, not wanting to mow down a 5 year old, stopped as quickly as I could and flew into the woods. another long story short, I ended up in a few inches of snow, upside down, with my ski stuck in a tree and probably a lot of 5 year olds laughing at me.
 
why didn't I think of that? I need to remember this for when we get some snow. or just do it with my friends.
