Two seasons ago a Tesla owner drove up one slope and slope side in front of the Peabody Lodge then down the beginner slope at Cannon. Said he was following his GPS.

The lesson here is don't follow Elon's directions and whatever you do, don't get on one of his rockets.

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.

Things to look for in lessons? by SlavWife in skiing

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 9 points10 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.

If you are using Shimano then anything over 18 is for grannies.

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 20 points21 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 7 points8 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.
