The best gaper quotes

All my friends snowboard except one who skis too...when you look at him in the liftline you would think he is good since he gets new gear every year...but when hes in the park he refusing to hit anything saying he doesmnot want to get hurt because of work yet he skis down the park everyrun with us n always skis it like a trail. My snowboarder friends and me never understood why he trys so hard to be fake. He also tella mad ppl at parties he skis park and is close to getting sponsered haha...its the sadest thing ever
 
on the chairlift, gaper- what kind of skis are those? Me- k2 public enemy. Gaper- oh cool, so are they powder skis cause they look like they have a bit of rocker in em. Me-.....
 
Downhill or Super-G is more accurate. After his gnarly motorcycle crash, he lost all feeling in his lower leg(s?), and couldnt ski slalom anymore. They actually are rumored to have put him in over a 250 flex boot..
 
When people dee my Gopro mount they always ask if i "make cool clips on my aerials" and ask if it's my first year skiing, if i'm in a lessons group and if I have tried snowboarding. people generally act like I'm 7. I guess I'm short but really? On a side note when i was out today i dropped a decent size drop with way to much speed and landed flat. A snowboarder in the trees smoking le chron yelled "Huck to flaaaaaaaaat!!!!!!" I literally fell laughing. It was just strange.
 
Not much of a gaper quote, but anyways i was skiing with a girl i met and she asked me what din i was at and i told her 13 on marker squire 11's....and not to mention im 5'4 on 150's xP made me hur hur hur for a while.
 
i'd have to agree NS is aging and so is it's community.

this entire weekend of skiing has been gaper central where i ski because its a long weekend and my mountain was having some lift ticket deal or something. havnt heard any notable quotes yet, if i hear any tomorrow ill return though
 
I met a guy yesterday who looked like a textbook gaper, but then the strangest thing happened. Whilst riding up the chairlift, he looks down at my skis. Expecting him to say something like "Oh so you're one of those twin tippers doing whirly birds in the snowboard park, huh.", he blindsides me by asking how I like ON3P's product. Trust me, this guys knew his shit. Then he started talking about the "stupid fucking day trippers with their six year olds need to stay the fuck out of the fucking jump line or he'll tail tap the little bastards' helmet" Mind you this guy was easily in his early 60's. Needless to say, it was a fun chairlift ride.
 
I told my history teacher i was hitting an urban rail with a couple of friends and he assumed that i hit it with a hammer and was destroying public property over the weekend. Didnt go over too well when i almost got called to the principle and i had to tell him it was with my skis, apparently someone had litterally destroyed one of the nearby handrails in the area that weekend too. It wasnt too gaper on his part but it was nucking futs
 
gaper: hey do you like your magne traction?(on my lib tech skiis)me: yeah

gaper:does it work good?

me:yeah?

gaper:ever catch edges?

me:not really

gaper: oh cool...i have it on my board?

me:*why the hell did you ask me if it works good then*

 
Saturday i was in the lift line and some gaper in a one peice puts his ski up and says "is there any scratches on this ski? *switches which foot is up* What about this one? no? caus i feel like im going slow. like REALLY slow"
 
Is that you btw? Looks fuckin weird, just google something on icon size on images or find an image and there are free resizers on the interwebz
 
i was getting my books after school about an hour after school ended, im talking to my freshmen buddy who snowboards at my hill, and we were talking about what we were going to do that weekend. and I said i was going skiing as usual, i told him i was gonna try to do some rail trick. and this other freshmen gets all angry and flips out and says NO WAY, SKIERS DONT DO PARK THEY ONLY RACE, then im like no not really, then he just yells HOW COME I NEVER SEE ANY SKIERS DO PARK, then me and my freshmen buddy walk away laughing.
 
Me and my friends had a very similar experience at seven springs, except it was with a snow boarder of about the same age. He'd get to the top of the jump line and get made fun of for snowboarding and then throw some pretty crazy stuff, just to show them.
 
Happens from time to time eh... saw a guy last season queuing to drop on the big line at my local hill, rocking the faded one-piece and some ancient carving skis... dude was taking his spraffys out 60ft, more power to him I guess.
 
a kid at my local hill, with an indiana jones hat and womens goggles said, "woah your skis have tips on both sides, those are like...dual tips or somethins"
"can we put the safety bar down now?"
"Whats your favorite jumpMe: the last oneGaper: mines the first rail"
"WHAAATTTTT???? HE JUST DID A TWO SPINNN!"
 
while waiting to go on a rail at sundown

Gaper: whats that thing in front of youMe: The rail?

Gaper: The red thing that u slide on

Me: So a rail?

Gaper: No the red thing you slide on
 
A kid at my mountain goes "what is that thing?" and i said "its a rail" and he goes "ohhh so its like an obstacle courseeee" i was unsure how to reply
 
just remembered the best one. My friend was wearing a vest he got at a garage sail and i asked a kid wearing an ll bean coat if he looked cool, and the kid said, "i dont know, im not cool" then looked sad and walked away.
 
Gaper on chairlift: hey, do you do the parksMe: yeah

Gaper: Can you backflip?

Me: yeah

Gaper: LIKE FEET OVER HEAD!!!!!??????

Me:...............................
 
Guy on the chair lift: so I got the speed app on the iPhone, it said I was going 75mph down that slope right there. Hahaha
 
Classic MN Gaper: Carrhart one piece suit, blaze orange hat, insulated work gloves...

On lift with described gaper

Him-"So what are those 'double-enders' for?"

Me-"Dufuq are you- oh, I use my TWIN-TIPS in the park."

I now call my skis "double-enders" cuz I thought that was hilarious.
 
So here's my gaper story: I was riding up with my friend and his little brother to Snoq (both gapers) his little brother about 10 years old just bought some like $20 Scott goggles and was memorizing the box the whole way up and we get up there it's totes foggy and you can hardly see we're on the quad with some lady in her mid 30s and she said "it's so foggy I can't see anything" my friends lil brother "I can see everything my goggle have anti fog lenses"

Same day same kid I took a picture of them at the peak and on the way back they sent the picture to their uncles who are in some other state idk with this caption: guess where we are? Response: mt baker? Little brothers reply text: nope, skiing
 
Snowboarder Kid: Whats the grom section at the comp?

Me: I dont know probally some boxes

Snowboarder Kid: those are too easy

me: What tricks can you do?

Snowboarder kid: I don't do tricks...
 
This ones mad long

Im on the park lift at nigchusett, and right under us park staff was putting in this down bar, and the lip was already set up. So i yell down "yo you dont have to bother putting that grindpole in, im just gonna hit the jump in front of it the whole time anyway"

then this kid on the lift with us looks over and hes like

"oh yeah i love doing that at my home mountain of burke they have..."

and he goes on to describe the park setup in the most gaper way possible-

"a 10 foot jump with a 5 foot gap, a 40 foot jump with a 26 foot gap, and this big box at the end that i usually bomb all the way from the top and hit the jump, but the box is in the way of the landing, so we just have to land on the side"

and later on, as we pass the only real jump in their park, which was maybe a 30, hes like

"that jump is way too small, how does anyone do anything off it, i dont hit jumps that small thats like a 5 foot jump with a 10 foot gap"

 
The little kids seeing me in the park asking, "Why is there a skier in the snowboard park?"Respond with, "It's not just for snowboarders."

Father comes over, " Why are you arguing with my son?! He is right!."

I look down, "What the FUCK." Included with a Face Palm witch was over 9000.
 
One time my friend was filming, and a lady with a British accent asks " is that a real camera" to which my friend replays "yes" and the. The British lady asked " what are you doing with a thing like that out here" then we skied away haha
