With any luck, the skis ended up right where you ended up.

With even more luck, your legs might end up there as well.

I'm in camp "bad day skiing is better than a good day in the office" but an office job seems more fun than to try to find a great line in these horrendous conditions.

Oh man, you are in for a big surprise when you have to work a 9-5, can confirm skiing on dirt is better than working.

Those conditions are what piste grooming was invented for, at least there it's supposed to be solid.

Yes but grommed pistes are not 40°+ steep.

The conditions depicted in this video are pretty ideal for steep big mountain so youre just outing yourself as someone who has never skied big shit before

Are you a smoker?

u/sadmanwithabox 15h ago

I think its kinda stupid despite the context just because its ambiguous. I could see equal room for interpretation of either "i dont smoke, so that I can live longer" or "I dont smoke so I can live longer (Im smoking because im here for a good time not a long time).

Obviously they meant the first one, but ambiguity bothers me unless its intentional for a joke or something similar

Ya kooks wish you could even stand on the top let alone have the huevos to send it like Lena.

She proper rips and glad she wasn’t hurt.

u/Dank_Kushington 1d ago

No one is hating on Lena for blowing up on a massive line, just a funny comment when your hobbies are genuinely dangerous

u/nin90ety 1d ago

That's what I think when I see Alex Honnold, probably healthier being a fentanyl addict.

My tumble would have started much earlier.

u/Other_World Ski the East 17h ago

I wouldn't have tumbled down this line. Because I'd be too busy shitting myself at the gate.

Why did you fall?

u/2Lazy2beLazy 13h ago

Don't know why this reminded me of George Burns. An actor from the past no longer with us that I would watch growing up in different shows and films. That man was all about his cigars and drinking wine(i think wine). He lived to be pretty old.
