Who is the douchiest person you've encountered while skiing?

Shaun white while i was skiing at vail. It was during the 2013 burton us open. he was being really pissy and not stoked to be riding. you can definitely tell he has no passion and just wants the fucking money.

All that matters
 
Any 12-16 year old park rat who doesn't realize there's more to skiing than metal pipes and are completely full of themselves.
 
not too many, altercations while skiing are dumb. why get into it with someone when you're doing something that is supposed to be fun and relaxing? seems a bit pointless. just cut your losses, say you're sorry/fuck off, and go back to skiing.
 
This one time at Loon I apparantly cut off this girl skiing down to the park and when I get to the top of the park to chill and change the song on my phone, I'm looking down at my phone and my friends are like yo watch out and the boyfriend of that girl straight up lowers a shoulder into my head and knocks me out of my bindings and he keeps skiing. Everyone was too stunned to chase after him hahaha
 
My top would be when I was a squaw and I got cut off by some 60 year old lady I said 'hey' and she flipped me off and called me an asshole. Just for kicks I followed her down a bit and was standing directly behind her in the lift line for ten minutes which made her feel awkward. I was only twelve or thirteen when it happened but I thought and still think it was hilarious
 
I am a professional security guard. I encountered an "urban skier" first name Clayton. Guy was a fucking douche bag and a half.
 
Every bad experience I've ever had was with Mountain Safety or whatever they're called. Fuckin Yellow Jackets.

Suree "too stunned"

Haha i was gonna call him out that too.

One of the snowboarders i was riding with had apparently cut off an older lady on the cattrack right before a lift. I rolled up like 15 seconds later and found the two of them arguing. I peacabley made amends to her, and we both went on our ways.

A few laps later i am coming down the same cattrack to the lift and start slowly sliding sideways to stop about 20 yards ahead where the lift line ropes are. the older lady bombs over and skis over my tails. I am super stoned and all i can get off is a loud, presumably stoned sounding "woooooaaahhh". she turns around and, in front of a Tuesday kirkwood powday crowd starts going off on me. I waited till she finished her 15 second rant and then loudly(yelled) said "Ma'am, you ran into me. I was the downhill skier. Please try to ski in control next time and im sure you could avoid a stationary, downhill person next time". Literally, that is almost work for word- im very polite, what can i say.

She did that speechless stare for like 5 seconds and then skated off into the line. i felt good that my point had been made and i had made it in a mature, non regrettable way haha
 
Numerous punk teenagers that rip on people skiing below, just generally being dicks.

Anyone that smokes heaters/weed on the lift/gondola without, at the very least, asking if I don't mind.

Not sure if I can't read or something but I didn't understand the last part at all

My fault, too my commas and backslashes.

If you start smoking a cigarette and/or blunt on the lift or in the gondola without asking if the people around you aren't bothered by it, then you're kind of a douche.
 
Still in uniform, I went to round the day out with some runs for myself after ski instructing at Snowmass. I was taking the gondola back to the main village to catch the bus and a fat texan with his wife get on with me. We're talkin the most stereotypical whatever-reptile-skin-jacket wearing rich redneck kind of guy you can think of. He struck up conversation with me about what my uniform was for and for some reason, and when I told him, he decided to begin insulting me about my lifestyle. He told me to "That's not a real job. Get a real job, join the army. learn some discipline". I was speechless, so I just pointed to the Aspen/Snowmass sticker on my helmet that said "My life is better than your vacation".

why insult skiing when you're doing in your free time? the fuck??
 
Skier racer dads on the east coast. They think them and their kids are the hottest shit on the planet.
 
Literally every single kid who has a "sponsor" and tells "Hilarious" jokes to all of their little pals about living life without paying for shit. What makes it all ok though is when they are quickly putting their shit in their mom's Minivan.

Nice dude old ladies are the bomb
 
The biggest douche kids I've met have definitely been at ski camps. I've been to a couple different camps and there are always some kids, usually 9-14, who are rich pricks who brag about how good they are or how many sponsors they have. Don't get me wrong, some of those kids are insane. Last summer at Snowflex there was a 9 year old who could do both way cork 9's. The same kid would often laugh at kids trying to get that 7 or backflip. Really dude? It just seems like all the little kids that are insane shit on kids that maybe just got into skiing who are trying to slide their first rail or straight air their first jump.
 
I was on a lift at squaw with Johnny Moseley a couple years ago and the dude was saying shit to a guy he was skiing with about how he wished he could be the spokesperson at another mountain because Squaw sucks. I was a racer at the time and he told me that I should have been a mogul skier instead but the way he said it was so ducking douchy. Moseley is a total kook
 
my cousin matt races and me and him are cool but he has these fucking asshole racers friends and they come up to me like outa no were and are like oh look its matts cousin who skis park. And started going off on me like oh go smoke some more weed in the park and put some clothes on that fit you. uhhh some racers are just complete assholes
 
so some of the biggest jerks ive met are the ones when i am trying to learn a new trick and i keep falling and they come up and stomp it clean as fuck and just stop and glare at me then ski away laughing.

it kinda sucks

They're just jealous that you get to ski wherever/whatever/however you like all day and they're stuck on a race course wearing their speed suit under their overly-tight-fitting spyder jacket and shorts with their team logo plastered all over it.
 
I was on a school trip, maybe four or five years ago and was bombing down the side of the trail. An elderly gentleman in a one piece suit was carving across the whole trail, and I planned my speed to pass right by him. But he decided to turn back at the last minute, after I had passed him. I thought all was fine, until he found me in the lift line and screamed about how he was going to pull my pass. A ski patrol came up and told the guy to calm down, so it all worked out

Spark notes: Old guys in onesies can be dicks
 
The guy who claims everything.

Or, since I live in Illinois, the person who moves west and then comes back and talks about the west and brags about it. Sweet dude, you lived out west for a few months. I wanna ski, not talk about how great Breck was.

When you combine the two people... the worst.

I just mutter "Daddy's money," whenever there are douchey racers near. Works well.
 
some guy told me to go drive my dad's lambo once but he's a dumbass because his parents have way more money than mine.

my dad's only got like 5 mil

Also the kids that call you a gaper for only having a season and a half of park under your belt when you are actually trying to get better they just get doucheyer when you slide off of a rail or what not.

Is this Aidan Crowley?

He definitely meant KSL sucks, and you didn't understand his sarcasm about telling you to be a mogul skier. Moseley is not a douche, I've met him several times. He's sarcastic.
 
Being from Albany, I ski Whiteface in the ADKs. Some of the riders from the local towns up there tend to be pretty condescending and doubtful of my knowledge of the mountain and ability when I talk to them because I'm not born and raised in the mountains, which is bullshit.
 
when i met cole gibson at mt snow. i was just skiing through the park minding my own business and he cuts me off hitting a rail. he fell super hard and then started yelling at me and skied off with all his snowboarder friends. then he threw a fucking beer can at me from the lift. such a douche!!!!!
 
Once skiing with my ex, some dude with his kid(8-10) was chasing his kid who was bombing straight down, the kid knocked her down and the dad cut across the run and cut her head with his ski. Ran him down and caught him, Buster said "should've had a helmet on". Only reason I didn't pop him was his kid was there. Super douche. She didn't need stitches but was bloodied up good.

so he just bounced without stopping to check on her after he skied into your girls head(obviously not on purpose)?
 
Got stuck behind a zig-zagging snowboarder on a narrow cat-track, so I couldn't pass him. All I said was "Damn Snowboarders" under my breath, but the dude had super-hearing or something and stopped right in front of me, I almost ate shit. And he throws up both middle fingers at me and follows me for the rest of the run, cussing at me. I was like 11 when this happened, he was at least 35-40

Yup, precisely. After checking to see if she was ok and guiding her down the run, I caught up to him. Definitely my worst encounter with another skier.
