Snowboarders...losers???
Snowboarders frighten and confuse me. Sometimes I see them riding
their "boards" from my seat in the lodge and they just seem revel in getting in the way of the normal skiers. I wish they could get haircuts and join society, because someday, they are going to run the country. The really scary ones are the ones with all of their "bling" and their ghetto-blasters who play their "groovy" music at an increased volume. I wouldn't turn up my Waylon Jennings CD's up and disturb other people on the slopes. Why do you people feel like you have the right to do so? Please, think about what I've said. JR Norman, OK |

Look at the facts here. Snowboarders are more likely to be involved with
drugs than the average person. Snowboarders are also more likely to be involved in vandalism. If you don't recognize the problem, then take your blinders off. So what`s your point? I think you are generalizing way too much! Who`s that average person you are comparing snowboarders with? The nice 40-50 year old father of 1.5 children? The point is, that most snowboarders are teenagers! And yes, teenagers tend to be involved with drugs "than the average person"! But so are age skiers! And about the vandalism: how do you define vandalism? Destroying thing like... what? I think you are comparing with different degrees of perception ie prejudice.

But guess what: "obvious" things don`t mean any real correlation! ;-) |

MH Denver, CO Where we always walk a mile high. HA, listen to yourselves! If my university has taught me anything, it is to critically analyze people's arguments. Calling people names are immature, but so is generalizing a group of people with the acts of some! Yes, most of the snowboarders out there are teenagers, but I have to disagree with your other generalization of snowboarders from your limited experience and maybe tinted glasses. Your crude generalization of snowboarders disgust me. 1. You tend to assume that all snowboarders revel in cutting across skiers paths. I have seen many skiers cut across other skiers and snowboarders and an equal amount of snowboarders doing the same. What does that mean? It means that type of equipment has no saying in that behaviour. However, if you look at the age group you'll see that most of the inconsiderate are teenagers. I have been the victim of young skiers cutting across a merger zone because they were reckless. Therefore it can be established that the equipment has little saying on behaviour but rather it is directly proportionate to demographic. 2. Haircuts or fashion have nothing to do with bad behaviour. I have many friends who has "extreme" haircuts (mohawks, pink dye, dreads) who are the most active people in school and community. Just because their life style choices are different than yours doesn't mean they are less equiped to function in society. 3. Joining society is a good thing. Your statement insinuates that those who don't join society are bad people. Nelson Mandella did not join the Apartheid society, and he is not bad. Sometimes lifestyle choices are reflection of their attitude towards modern society. Punk rock in the late 70's and early 80's stems from the youth's distrust over government. Just because you are part of society, it doesn't mean that you are better than others. In fact these others are excercising their democratic rights by expressing themselves in a non-violent manner. 4. The bibel is spelled Bible (watch the capital B). No doubt the Bible is a good book that many can learn from. Love for thy neighbour would be a good one to learn for those inconsiderate ones. However, when you read it you have to understand that Jesus was also a revolutionary, or even anarchist if you will. He did not care for the Romans. Just because you "don't get it" doesn't mean its a bad thing. A lot of people in Jesus' time didn't get his teachings. They thought he was trying to usurp leaders of Judaism and they put him to death. I know what you don't understand can be frightening, so why don't you try and understand why people have pants down to their crotch. Maybe then you can explain to them why you look the way you do. 5. Passing judgement on others you don't even understand seems a little prejudiced. "Us people" are commonly linked by our love for the sport of snowboarding. What some snowboarders tend to do does not represent the others who do not. You wouldn't judge the bulk of the snowboarding community because of some punk on a snowboard that cut you off, would you? Is it right to say that all Asians are good at math? or that all Africans are violent? or snowboarders are assholes? 6. MH, the fact is that you have nothing to base your fact on. These people you talk of, I assume, are snowboarders. However, I see many young skiers who do the same. I also see many older skiers who do the same. Also your assumption that these people are all youths is flawed. Come by rec.skiing.snowboard and you'll see that that we are not all youths. There are plenty middle aged snowboarders here (although I'm not one of them). And for the last point, your assumption that the youth of today are into drugs and destruction is also unfounded. I see many youths out there not into drugs and destruction. The rivalry between skiers and snowboarders is predominantly fueled by the generalization of each group's perspective on the other. What I have exhibited here is that presumptions about the other group only causes animosity and serves only to widen the rift between the 2 sport. I think it is time that people like you open up to the other group and try to understand the differences and what truly makes up for the bad behaviour on the slope. Ask yourself this question: does strapping a snowboard on automatically make you a worse person than a skier? I hope that your answer is NO and begin to see that there are other factors that make up for these bad behaviour you see. |

I didn' t meen to inseminate that all snowboarders were bad people I just think that if you tried to fit in a little better to civilized society instead of playing to be the outsidert than it would be easier for you "radical doods" to be accepted. I also don't understand why snowboarders get angry at me for pointing out how they are different when they try so hard to be different I just think that's funy!!! And MH needs to get off his high horse cause I'm purdy sure I read in Bibel that self-righteousness is a sin. JR Norman, OK |

That's "insinuate" JR, not inseminate; insemination has to do with,
ahem, something else. If one focuses on the jerks, it's not hard to have them fill your field of vision. The punks will figure it out, or not. Most of them, if you can get them one on one, are largely lost & lonely, and are simply looking for a look. White suburbanites w/the money to buy gear & lift tickets trying to go hip hop is pathetic, that's all. Teenagers have been trying to be "different" for about, oh, 2000 years. Having folks get upset w/them is all they're trying to accomplish; looks like they're succeeding. Personally, I'll take the punks over the excessively rich clowns I've run into @ the plush joints. BTW; I'm 51 years old, been boarding for 9 years, & have yet to find a mountain that wasn't big enough for everyone. My solution to punk noise is an iPod turned up to maximum volume w/ Mozart. |

"Mike M. Miskulin" wrote in message . 3.44... I grew up in Columbus. Live in Atlanta now, but still have occasion to return home and while I'm there I visit the clubs to relax a bit. The strip-clubs in South Columbus (off of Vistory Drive) tend to run to the sleazy and occasionally dangerous. Prostitution and drugs are commonly found in these establishments. The dancers and/or management will often times try to rip you off on buying drinks or dances. This happens more often in the Victory Drive clubs due to there proximity to the Army base. Bilking servicemen out of their hard- earned money has become a way of life in that area of the city. You can, however, occasionally get some sleazy performances for your money in this area. The best club in town is called The Platinum Club and is located off of the Manchester Expressway within sight of the airport. It is a totally nude club with a $5 cover after 7:00 P.M. (free before). Drinks average $4-$5 and beer $3 (domestic). Table dances are $5. So prices are reasonable. Lap dancing and touching are not allowed due to local ordinances/laws. It's a small place and the atmosphere and the girls are friendly. Girls looks range from average to very pretty. Chelsea, however, is a 5-2, 100 lb. knockout. Ask for her if you go there on a Friday or Saturday night. Debbie is very pretty, great dancer, and great company. You can't go wrong with her either. Another club in town is The Forum Club off of the Beallwood Connector. Haven't been there in some time but it used to be a decent establishment and you might want to check it out. Just one last warning about the South Columbus clubs: if you decide to go there guard your wallet carefully. It doesn't happen with great frequency, but don't ever let your guard down in that area. Enjoy... Dude, if this is your sig, you need to get a life. winnard |

Sometimes I see them riding their "boards" from my seat in the lodge and they just seem revel in getting in the way of the normal skiers." that is what he wrote. The first sentence states his fears. The second sentence supports why he fears snowboarders. Therefore he is afraid of snowboarders because some snowboarders like to get in the way of normal skiers. He is making a judgement on all snowboarders based on a number of snowboarders he saw. I have seen many skiers cut across other skiers and snowboarders and an equal amount of snowboarders doing the same. What does that mean?

And it's "has no say" not "has no saying in that beaviour." And it's spelt "behaviour" not "behavior." So, you are agreeing with me its behaviour. Also amount is equally valid as number. Maybe if you broaden your horizons a little bit you'll know better. However, if you look at the age group you'll see that most of the inconsiderate are teenagers. I have been the victim of young skiers cutting across a merger zone because they were reckless. As a teenager I deeply resent your insinuations.

What I tried to say is the equipment has nothing to do with it, but from a statistical point of view, it more closely resembles the actions of young adults more so than older people. By the way, maybe you need some english classes. |

Are snowboarders high as a kite while they snowboard? or are drugs making them violent and inconsiderate? Plus are you sure that skiers don't want powder? can you speak for all of them? (tell you the truth, untouched powder is the purest form of skiing or snowboarding because it is all natural) |

Your self righteousness makes me wanna puke. Trying to pass off as superior isn't going to solve any problem. Maybe you should try being constructive as oppose to being destructive. Why don't you offer your ideas on where these problems stem from. Wait, you already did. You loosely pinned it on snowboarders. Let me make some similar accusations. Skiers are all pricks, they don't do drugs but like to drink irresponsibly, especially apres ski. All skiers are self righteous. Skiers like to point all problems at snowboarders. Skiers can't handle powder. WOW, that was easy!! I never thought that it was so easy just making generalizations that may or may not hold up to even half of all skiers! I think I will use this approach more often to argue my points. (I hope you understand that this whole paragraph was sarcastic). JR did bring up some valid points that there are assholes on the hill, but to pin it on snowboarders is low, below the belt low. Like you said, trying to ignore the facts won't make these problems go away, BUT trying to pass the blame on some other group won't either. Well, stu, until I see differently from all the snowboarders that come to town, these generalizations are pretty much dead on. You ask for some constructive advice, well here's my advice Paco. Snowboarders need to stop using drugs. Period. Back in my day, I didn't need drugs to give me a lift, I got that by having clean fun. You notice skiiers and other mountain enthusaists don't feel the need to use drugs like snowboarders do. And you're right that skiiers can't handle powder. That's because skiiers aren't into drugs. They don't WANT powder. JR had valid points because if you look at it scientifically, the majority of the assholes are snowboarders. Look at the facts. MH Denver, CO Where we always walk a mile high. MH, its always easier to pin it on one thing isn't it. Like Terrorism, its Saddam Hussein. Like air pollution, its big nasty factories. You see, there are more to problems than just one cause. Most of the time there are many causes. By the way, I'd like to know what drug use contributes to the problems on the hill? Are snowboarders high as a kite while they snowboard? or are drugs making them violent and inconsiderate? Plus are you sure that skiers don't want powder? can you speak for all of them? (tell you the truth, untouched powder is the purest form of skiing or snowboarding because it is all natural) Drug use is a big problem with these snowboarders. The drugs effect them different ways. Some of them have problems on the hill, some of them become violent, especially against the other mountain enthusiasts. And yes, skiiers don't want any of that cocaine or heroin powder. Are you admitting on here that you like the powder? MH Denver, CO Where we always walk a mile high. |

Snowboarders frighten and confuse me.
Folks, either this guy is 100% troll or he lacks fortitude and intellect as illustrated by the opening sentence of his first post. Arguing with him is pointless either way. In the former case you're feeding a troll and in the latter case, you're feeding his paranoia. Let this thread die. Mike T |

that is what he wrote. The first sentence states his fears. The second sentence supports why he fears snowboarders. Therefore he is afraid of snowboarders because some snowboarders like to get in the way of normal skiers. He is making a judgement on all snowboarders based on a number of snowboarders he saw. Seems then that the skiier is further up the hill if the boarder is 'cutting' in front of the skiier. Hence the skiier is at fault as the *DOWNHILL* skiier/rider already in motion has the right of way. |
