just saying you'll never do something is very absolutist and concrete, especially about something that is so widely accepted these days. as a young kid, i was super absolute about things like drugs, and i couldnt see any circumstances under which i would ever change my mind about drugs from what i'd been told by my elementary school nurse, and the mormon church is very absolute about drugs. also meth and weed are not the same shit. there's a very good objective reason to never ever do meth.

You would also have to factor in what strain you're smoking, weather it be an indica based strain or a sativa based strain. They effect you in different ways witch would alter your high skiing experience.

Cause it's not something I want to get into my body. I have dealt with it situationally - basically every time I ski. But drugs (stuff like weed, OR harder drugs like oxi) aren't something I want pumped up on. I've seen soooo many of my friends lives take a one way trip down the shitter because of drugs (not necessarily pot, granted).
Basically what I'm trying to say (I guess) is I love skiing, and I love my life... so why smoke? Dunno if that makes sense man. But I'm happy where I am, and spending money, time, (potentially) destroying relationships... just to get high, seems silly to me. I understand that it makes things "more fun" to people... but to me it seems it would take the fun OUT of things. Being high becomes normal. What used to be fun without drugs becomes dull. Hanging out with your friends turns into hanging out to get high (I've never smoked so I may be flatass wrong, but this is going off my friends I've watched suffer). Granted, everyone is different. Your life your choices bro! Vibes

A bit of weed here or there is fun and I highly doubt that it will destroy relationships and stuff.
Everything in moderation. If you start smoking everyday an events in your life revolve around getting high then you have a problem but if you smoke for some fun with mates then weed is great.
I used to have the same attitude towards weed as you did but then a lot of my friends were doing it and so I gave it a shot. Turned out it is really over hyped but still a lot of fun. I only smoke like once every two weeks and it's fun plus it hasn't impacted me in a negative at all.

I fucked my meniscus, pelvis, and back (discs and vertebrae primarily along with a hemotoma) up pretty damn good about 16 months ago skiing. I got prescribed oxicodone for it (basically contin without the time delay), and I followed my prescription word for fuckn word, but I still ended up getting screwed by it. Picture the absolute WORST flu like sickness you've ever had. Times the weakness/aches by about 10 along with the feeling of pins and needles in every muscle in your body, and take away the stomach aches/cramps... then you have the pain of an oxy withdraw. You hit rock fucking bottom and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. Cause you just can't stop railing this magic pill. Sleep gets boned, 18 hours feels like about 6... it's a mental and physical addiction that you simply can't beat. I can't tell you how to get off it cause I've never met anyone who's been able to. My doctor gave me no indication how addictive it was, or that withdrawal would be equivalent to living a week in hell. Intentional OD didn't do shit except put me in a hospital, and make things worse.
Living high isn't living homie, at least not with an oxi high. And the few times I have smoked, it's "fun" while doing it, but afterwards I feel like shit (granted I have no tolerance for drugs... hella lightweight haha). I know pot isn't nearly as serious (if it even is serious) compared to oxi. I'm just trying to say I feel where OP is coming from with his abstinence from drugs (and weed, if you don't consider it a drug like others). Once I kick Oxi, I'm not touching any drug again man, they fuck you (me, everyone's body reacts differently) up real good. And until I'm done with oxi, I'm not gonna use any other drugs (even weed). Not an anti-drug rant, sorry if it sounds like that man. Just a rant about how I feel what OP means. My buddies smoke tons, along with other stuff. They're way chill people still, and they aren't going to hell or anything haha. I have no issues with people doing drugs. But they aren't for me, and I get what OP is saying when he says he's not gonna touch it. He's smarter than I was.
Given the choice I personally wouldn't ever have smoked or taken a pill like that in my life.

I haven't smoked weed and skied before but I probably will this winter. I've heard both sides, I have friends who say it calms them and makes them more aware while others feel sketch skiing high. It's all personal preference.

Man I wanted to come in here and hate on op's absolutism but after reading I simply can't bring myself to that, op you do you and ima do me. To answer your question tho skiing kicks some fucking ass, and at times being high can actually add to that especially if smoking is something you enjoy doing as well. Personally I find more flow and a lot more style when I'm high, not ripped but a little high.

You do you, OP. I am in the same situation as you as I have never tried it, but a bunch of the kids i skied with in college did it. Everyone can make their own choices as to what they want to do and you shouldn't shit on someone for not wanting to try it. Personally, I played two other sports for my college and it wasn't something that appealed to me so I never did it. I was happy with how everything was going in my life so I didn't want to change anything and I am still happy about that. I know plenty of people who still haven't ever smoked and plenty who do, but the decision is ultimately what you think is the best decision for your life.

Skiing powder high is so fun. It's still amazing when sober but when you're smoking with your friends, hooting and hollering, getting faceshots, skiing pillows and steeps, it just adds to the adrenalin. Skiing powder feels like floating, smoking weed feels like floating, its a good combination if smoking is something you enjoy. Like any substance alcohol included, it's simply not for everyone. personally I have been toking on the slopes for the better part of a decade and I love it every time.
lol OP sounds like he was brainwashed by his Mom or something . As if smoking a joint is gonna make his whole life crumble apart. Losers are gonna be losers with or without weed. Hardworking determined people are going to be successful with or without weed. Make whatever choice you want, but dont act like weed is gonna make your perfect life spiral out of control. If anything it would make you appreciate and enjoy the things you love more, give you a different look on life.
There is something to be said for trying something at least once before making judgments about it.

He never judged weed. He just said that he didn't want to do it. You don't have to try everything to know whether or not you do or don't want to do it. I.e. cutting your dick off. OP doesn't want to do weed, good for him. His post wasn't demeaning people who smoke, or weed. All he said is that for him in his situation he doesn't want to do it. And he asked WHY other people do it, particularly while skiing. People on this site are typically straight up assholes to OPs, and it's disgusting. Their posts are blown out of proportion and taken out of context. Ski seasons over so lets go hate on people on the interwebz.
Damn. Just answer the question or don't, there's no need to try and act cool by mocking someone.

This thread is mostly children and ignorance. Shit man, smoke weed if you want, don't if you don't, either way be open to the idea. Saying shit like I will never smoke weed because I don't want to put that in my body or I've seen people's lives go down the drain and what not is ignorant. If you don't wanna smoke weed that's whatever, but make sure you're not smoking weed for the right reasons.
Someone said something about how their friends just do everything high now, well so fucking what. Now that I smoke I do most of the same exact shit I did before I smoked - chill, play video games, laugh at stupid jokes, go on hikes, ski, etc. - the only difference is I'm high.
This Cyanide and Happiness comic explains it pretty well:
Honestly this whole shit is stupid. I don't give a fuck and you shouldn't either.

for me there are a few reasons.
everybody reacts differently to weed. personally, when i'm stoned i have to be doing something, i cant sit around and do nothing.
so when i ski, i cant just ride rails to front, i want to do switch ups, stylish things, fun tricks, goofy things that can't be categorized as a trick at all, you name it.
weed makes your balls bigger. fact. take it to gucci.
i use it socially. if i have nobody to ride with, i offer people in the lift line who look fun some nugs. ive met a lot of interesting people who are still my friends this way.
my pain tolerance is inhuman when im high. i feel nothing.
also, the mountain is a sanctuary to me, i feel safe there so i'm comfortable smoking and such.
