According to a story on KGW.com the days of trauma between skiers and “scum of the earth” snowboarders is long gone.
On the slopes these days, most skiers and snowboarders give little thought to what is strapped to whose feet. They go about their similar goals of riding powder, caching air, or just reaching the bottom of the slope. . . Skiers and snowboarders even ride together as friends. The image of snowboarders as young, rebellious outcasts is long gone.
Ah, harmony on the hills. Blue birds tweeting everywhere, and yet, most skiers are still tools. How do you explain that?

Whatever, Mr. The Editors. You haven’t even been on snow this year, and if you ever left BroCal you’d know that most skiers are perfectly nice people. “Tools”? What is this? 1995?
if anyone’s the young rebellious outcasts these days, it’s the skiers. man, by the way some of these white, wanna be thug, rich kids dress on the hill, you’d swear they’re from Watts or something, not the hamptons. but lets be honest, most of both snowboarders and skiers are tools. there are a handful from each sport that aren’t tools.
Bitter Mr. Sunshine,
. . . hook, line, and sinker.
Just trying to start a flame war over here, Mr. The Editors. [sigh] I miss the good old days …
i ride with skiers here in there… my buddy just landed a ten the other day on skis-pretty sick shit if that’s your thing, doesn’t matter what your ‘tray of choice is’. fun and pow, that’s what it’s all about-really.
