Skiing superstition.

At my hill they have a sign of a open hand telling you where you are supposed to stop for the chair lift. If i don't give it a high five im gonna have a bad run.
 
When a chair stops on the wheels make a wish, I wear 2 different gloves, a different pair on each hand. I have to tap my piles twice on each side before getting off the lift for my first run.
 
I called last run a few days ago and got concussion from one of my friends wiping me out on the flattest most straight bit of the entire mountain.
 
I always put on my gear in the exact same order. I always take a run through the park without hitting any of the features in the beginning of the day, even if I'm 99% sure that speed is the same as yesterday.

I never say out loud that I'm sure I'm going to stomp a trick, even if I am.

I can't ski properly if the left and right ski get mixed up. (Poles don't matter)

If I somehow forget to put my back protector on, I'm at least twice as likely to eat shit.

Whenever I attempt anything harder than a 180 I silently mutter a prayer just before reaching the lip of the jump...
