The best gaper quotes



Not really a gaper story, but one of my favorite memories is getting called into the chalet from the park because there were some people wanting a lesson. Not having enough time to change, I wore my Jiberish sweatshirt and tall tee with my pants sagged to my lesson. As I walk into the chalet, three black ladies are standing and start screaming how I am the best dressed on the hill and how they love the "city swag". While giving them their lessons, they ask to wear my gear. By far one of the funnest lessons I gave seeing these ladies skiing down the hill for the first time in Jib and Saga down to their knees. Also, my name was "Mr. Tony Hawk" for the entire lesson.
 
da bump.

i was watching riley leboe's backcountry edit in class and my friend looks over and says "is that an avalanche or a kid?" ahahhha
 
I was showing my parents friends my backyard setup the other day, and after I did a run they asked "so are those skis build especially to slide on turf?"
 
No a quote either but funny story. As I was getting into the lift line at Mammoth the other day there several Middle Eastern folks carrying their skis and trying to get past the automatic gates that open when you flash your pass but for some reason they were having a really hard time getting them to open. My friends and I finally get through past these guys and round the little curve in the lift line to get onto the chair and here's two more of these guys standing at the line right before you get on the chair trying to put on their skis and so we had to go in all different directions to get around them and on to the chair.
 
lol that is actually a good question. Snow and turf are so separate that skis in a outsiders perspective shouldnt be able to slide on turf.
 
me..do a 270 out gaper.. that was dope r u in the ex games

me. no

gaper. my dads friends kid is he can do a 540

"inverted tricks dont take any skill, you just need the balls to do them"

-gaper friend

i just nodded my head and gritted my teeth
 
"Last run I hucked a backflip off this, I'd do it again but I don't know what the landing's like""I bought Tim Wallisch's old redbull helmet on ebay it it was like 200 dollars"
 
t I hate it when everyones like - the park is only for snowboarders. And everybody thinks that snowboarding is way more popular then skiing
 
that KINDOF makes sense, hahaha, if his parents were the one who told him what tricks were called, helicopter used to be what all 360's were called.
 
In like I broke my thumb 270ing onto a flat box and I wasn't using poles that day, but after rigging something of a splint, I got back out and ended up finding a single pole that was the exact length I usually use, so I thought, "What the hell?". My home mt. has a free ski check area for when your heading into lunch. When I hand the guys my skis and one pole, he gives me a combination of the evil eye and a look of utter confusion, but just shrugs and walks away with my skis. I came back after eating and went back to the ski check to get my stuff. However, when I got my skis, the pole was missing. I asked where it was and he told me, "You look ridiculous enough with that long sweatshirt and those baggy pants." I asked another time for the pole and he reluctantly went over, grabbed it, and gave it to me. As I was walking away, I heard him say to (i assume) someone else who works in the ski check, "Next time that little prick isn't getting that pole back."
 
aerials and helicopters are said a lot and theyre gaper words. but one guy asked me if he was supposed to hit the rail sideways or frontwards...? no response
 
This is a summer time one but one time a gaper asked me if he should put on his bear spray now or later if he is hiking at 3, he thought it was some kinda anti bear deodorant.
 
steezed out kid on afterbangs- "Bro, I've been skiing since I was 7"me- "so youre pretty good?"

kid- "I just did a 540 off waterfall. I've been hitting park all winter"

me- "well thats cool I guess."

...........

*gets off chairlift and does "pizza" down to the park
 
Last season there was a guy that had a normal digital camera attached with like a screw to his helmet, go pro style. He was actually a decent snowboarder but he looked ghetto as hell.
 
Helicopter is not a gaper term, thats what 360's were called back in the day, and don't be mean to gapers, they are people too, why couldn't you explain how to hit the rail?

Also saw a guy slide down a hill on his ass screaming because he was scared and his jeans... Yes jeans left a blue streak down the whole run. Funniest lift ride ever.
