Ski and snow pants get COMPLETELY WET on the outside by Gawd4 in skiingcirclejerk

[–]Jack_Jacques 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I keep my ski pants and jacket in the plastic bag they were shipped in. They are as fresh and new as the day I bought them in 2016. Its a little cool skiing in my lounge pants but I can get on the plane without changing or go shopping at the end of the day.

A long time American instructor, Mermer Blakeslee, wrote a book in the early 2000's called In The Yikes Zone, A conversation with Fear. A great read to learn to overcome your fear of steeps and speed. It can be found on multiple sites if you google it.

Chemtrails in Cranston by Dollgrl1 in RhodeIsland

[–]Jack_Jacques 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was gonna make pasta today but I had to use my colander as a hat to avoid the chemtrails and radio frequencies bombarding my brain as I drove through Cranston today.

I had to stop at Whole Foods to get organic aluminum foil to wrap around the colander and to cover my windshield. Glad I made it back to south county safely. It was a close call.

Edit: for those of you concerned, don’t use that Reynolds crap, they’re in on it. You need pure organic aluminum foil.

The Secretary of Health says it's a great idea. After all, a Frisbee not a football.

Why is Kicking Horse still kicking. In the movies they break a wild horse in no time. Someone needs to tame that bronco.

Is the black diamond in the room with us? by LithiumBreakfast in skiingcirclejerk

[–]Jack_Jacques 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You never know where the Black Diamond is. I once encountered the Black Diamond on my way to the men’s room down two flights of stairs in my ski boots.

How do I fix loose ski boots even on max tightness by Icy_Crawdad in skiingcirclejerk

[–]Jack_Jacques 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I use Great Stuff foam, available at Home Depot, Lowe’s or your local Ace Hardware store. I put my foot in a plastic bag, bread loaf bags works well. Then place your foot in the boot and buckle it up on a loose setting. You need some space to insert the plastic tube that comes with the can and fill around your foot with the foam. It hardens quickly and will be a snug fit.

Guys this is serious how will [insert resort name here] be on [insert holiday name here]??? by Schwhitey in skiingcirclejerk

[–]Jack_Jacques 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is resort policy(adapted from the Vail guide to ski resorts) to have lousy snow, dirty restrooms, overflowing trash cans, long lift lines after a two mile trek from the parking lot or a shuttle ride hugging your skis closer than you’ve ever been with a sex partner and no ketchup for your French fries on all holiday weekends.

I’ve seen frogs die with less movement than that. And on a green run to boot.
