The best gaper quotes

waiting for my freinds after skiing switch.

Old gaper: why dont you go faster by people and try to kill some one

me: okay ill try that:

same run i lost a ski after trying a one in powder haha

Old gaper : see what i mean bombing into the run on your double siders!!

me: i was ion control...

Old gaper: do you drive your car like that!!

me: if my car was made to drive like it ya i wuld..

old gaper well im gunna get your pass away!!

me: go for it *fagget*

not really a quote but it made me feel good to show some old fag whos a boss while he tryed to be authoritative.
 
^haven't run into one of those, but I have a lot of racers. When the season starts, I'm sure to get plenty of remarks..
 
I was at this trade show type thing selling our wax the other day, and on the table I had a snowboard set up half waxed / half not so that people could see the difference more clearly (it wasn't a snowsport specific show). A lot of people were coming by, some that knew a lot about skiing and all that, and some not so much. This older lady came walking by and it went like this:
Lady: Oh, snowboard wax.Me: Ya, all natural Ski & Snowboard wax.Lady: No, just snowboard wax.Me: Skis too, its the same stuff.Lady: No, skis don't need to be waxed anymore.Me: ...
 
Sorry, should have elaborted a little.

"Fishscale" XC skis, with textured bottoms to propel you forward are (relatively) new.

Before that, there were special waxes to make your skis perform in the same way. I think they were called "Kickwaxes" or something like that.

Maybe thats what the lady was talking about.
 
That could be. However I was on the lift when I was told I was stupid and "uninformed" by in ignorant fifty year old because you don't have to wax skis anymore.

This isn't really a gaper comment but I have to post it.

This weekend I was at my resort and as I was waiting in the liftline I got joined up with these two older guys.

One of them says

"Wow those are some fat skis you know he is looking for some pow"

(they were lizzies so yeah to most people there fat)

me "Actually eric pollard designed them as park skis but to most they just look like skinny ass snowboards"

Instantly They get this offended look on there face. It takes me less then a second to figure out what it is. I said ass.

After several tence seconds one of them says. "We are johova witnesses and we don't appreciate your language.

Great

I spent the whole lift ride getting preached to about god and how he saves. It was so much fun.

I got asked if I was on level one on sunday. They were not gapers they were just young kids pretty stoked on skiing I guess. I was wearing a toque that said level one that I got since refresh took so long to ship. I think my 3 year old skis and my 2 year old red oakley suit might have given it away that I am not on level one.
 
i was once asked:

"i don't want to do the whole jump, so how much speed do you need to go halfway?"

This was probably a 16 year old kid, talking about the last jump in King's Crown last year.....
 
I was reading this thread and was bummed that i had no input for it, until last weekend.

Conversation between an older couple husband and wife

wife- well we haven't done this run 'tilt' (monarchs run with opening day set up with rails and boxes)

Husband- we passed that one, it has all those toys.

this one is less of a quote just more of a moment. My friend and I were waiting for our ride to get back to the car so we were messing around by the lodge trying to put our skis on backwards. He got his but mine wouldnt work. so while trying to get my skis on this lady starts talking to my friend and I.

JONG lady- @my friend- Do you have special skis?

friend- uhh...

JL- i think you have those on wrong, the thing that pops up goes in the back i think or are those special?

(directs her attention to me)

JL- here try this (attempts to put her much smaller boot into my bindings the wrong way as i just stare trying to keep a straight face)

me- (put on both skis the right way) ohhhh! thats way easier thanks!

JL- no problem.

friend- (puts skis back on the right way) this is way better!

JL- dont worry you'll get it some time or later. (walks away with jong family)

me and my friend just took our skis back off and laughed

 
You get some awesome comments when skiing Hellbents at a mountain that's not particularly snowy...

"They're trick skis. They're for doing tricks on"

"WOW. Did you put ski bindings on SNOWBOARDS?"

"Are those waterskis?!"

;/
 
best thread ever. read to pg 26 lol. i successfully converted my girlfriend from being gaper. now she hits jumps instead of the "little jumps by the rails"

so here is my funny gaper story;

i was a ski instructor for beginners like never been on a ski before. so i would guide the kids while skiing backwards. well i had to teach these 5 asian adults how to ski and i had them tell me that skiing backwards is dangerous and i shouldnt do it. so i just said do u wanna teach me how to ski or r u gonna let me be the instructor
 
In class today

So im getting skis, what kind should i get? -chick

twin tips for sure, i saw you skiing last year.- me

fat gaper kid- wait are twin tips curved up on both sides

me- ya trick skis

fat gaper- oh those are gay i go skiing and i never rent the trick skis cause i like goin fast and you dont need them at all

me- ok its whatever

fat gaper- ya sallie(chick) you should get racing skis they are better for speed and just as good in the park.

fat gaper walks away

me-get twin tips

chick- ya i didnt know he could even ski he can barely get to class ontime.

she ended up getting some roxy's so gaperness didnt prevail
 
This happened last year:
me: hey i heard you got new skis
friend: yea theyre for doin tricks n stuff
me: whitch ones did you get
friend: Rossignol Bandits see how the tail is kind of tilted up?
 
My friends mom was giving me and her daughter a ride home from my local hill the other day. She was trying to fit my skis under the seats in her mini van and they couldn't because of the tips on the back. Our conversation went like this.

"So what the hell do you have tips on the back of your skis for?"

"For going backwards"

"Now what the hell would you want to do that for?!?!"

 
Haha in addition to the level one quote. I heard these 2 while at mt.washington this weekend.
"I turn my bindings down to make spins easier""I use my other snowboard for flips, this one is for rails"

 
Guy did the same thing with my old Chronics. Refused too mount them for "liability." Haha, I called line right there and got that taken care of
 
Wore a Tall T too school one day. I walk into math, where I sit next to some chick.Her- Why are you wearing a dress? I made my friend switch seats with me that day.
Also, I love the kids who are 5ft with XL Saga suits and Elizabeths who have the uncanny knack too always be hiking up the hill too get their skis (after crashing when they went going straight over the 3ft wide box thats about 8ft long) every time I see them. And then they ask me how too get too chads gap from the bottom of alta and I tell them too look up their ass.
