Things you do that other skiers don't do

When putting my skis on a rack (like one at the base, not a roof rack) I slip/wedge my poles between the ski tips and the skis pinch them in place, instead of leaning them next to the skis or hanging them from the straps. Never seen anyone else do it and I've kinda looked. The skis don't pull apart, the poles stay put and it's quick and easy.
 
I hype people up I don't know if they are doing cool shit including but not limited to:

not wearing a real jacket, skiing bumps super fast, jumping off stuff, owning cool skis, etc.

I wish this wasn't weird, because I want the mountain to be a giant stoke city, but 90% of people seem taken aback by it.
 
Keep my boots out of the car before I go up.

Keep em warm at home then in the bottom of the seat near the blower . Fuck cold feet
 
Film good. I swear everyone I know kinda sucks at filming whether it’s on a camera or just an iPhone. No sense of good angles or framing of shots.
 
Purchase ski boots online, take them skiing without trying them on beforehand and then berate the shop for not taking back used returns when they sold me defective ski boots that hurt my feet when I ski.

Literally saw someone doing that last time I was in a shop getting my bindings tested. They had used them for like a whole season. Pretty sure the kid just grew out of them.
