Fight with the snowboarders at Como
 
Last Tues, Jay Tegeder was skiing at Como and he told me that some
snowboarders were throwing snowballs and Jay and Mike Mousloff. Due to
Jay's courses in anger management and the snowboarders interactions
with Jay T., the snowboarders decided to bury a snowboard at the
bottom of the hill in the middle of the nordic track (as you come from
the back bowl area). Actually, I ribbing Jay, and it was Mike who
needs some coursework. Anyway, the snowboard was white petex up the
hill and buried in snow. So they sabotaged the hill to take down the
next skier.

You guessed it, I was the next skier. I went down hard and cut up my
nose and chin, and the 4 or 5 of them were laughing. I got up, threw
the snowboard. That didn't relieve much anger, so I skied off with the
snowboard. The laughing turned to bitching. I turned around and didn't
say a thing, nor did they. I kept skiing, and they started bitching
again. Anyway, I tossed the snowboard after skiing threw the tunnel.
Apparently they didn't pick it up since it was still sitting there the
next day, and rumor has it that the snowboarders never got their board
back. Law of natural consequences I guess.

I also heard that the snowboarders put a street sign pipe at the
bottom of the same hill with the same idea. (I guess they learned not
to use a snowboard.) Watch your ski tips. It's a mean world out there.

Ouch !

We had a single snowboarder at the local golf course one year, shredding on one
of the steeper downhills. I've got no problem with that, except he wasn't
paying attention and cut in front of me ... I skiid right over the front of his
board.

Never saw him again.

HA !

And full of youngsters who īdonīt have a clue about the
consequences their pranks might have.

Here weīve had two cases of 10-12 year olds who wanted to
have a bit of a laugh - which I can perfectly understand:
there is probably no-one more poor-mannered, tight-assed
and humourless than a certain type of Finnish, male, mid-
or late middle-aged compertitive recreational skier - and
put an obstacle (in one case a rope across the track. in
another a couple of shovelfuls of gravel on it) near the
end of a fast downhill.

Their poor victims ended up with a spinal injury and a
skull fracture, and their parents with years of paying
compensations.

Mike Moulsoff did say something that ****ed the snowboarders off after
they threw snowballs at him. I don't know what he said. All I said
was; "You missed me!", "You almost got me that time!" I figured if we
****ed them off they might trash the trail. My idea was to be cordial
and accept an occasional snowball attack. Anyway, from later reports,
they went too far. These guys were probably around 19 to 22 years old.
They broke off some branches of a couple of pine trees and used them
to block the trail. The snowboard and pipe in the trail were the last
straw so to speak. I've got my cell phone so I'm going to call the
cops next time something happens. I might go and punch a few of them
too. Now that could be bad since it would probably be me against three
or four... I'd guess them to be about my size. I'd say Mike Brumbaugh
and I could take all four of them. I'll take the smallest guy out and
Brumbaugh can handle the rest. You'd have to know Brumbaugh to
understand...

I hope somebody at least called the parks department about this incident.
Sounds like vandalism, pure and simple.

this whole thing really ****es me off. I hope you are alright, Jay, and
your skis as well. I am both a skier and a boarder, so I don't want to
generalize against a group, but i wish I were there to crack a few heads
together (with a backing of a few other nordic skiers.) But actually,
it is probably for the best that I STAY AWAY FROM THIS CRAP. I'll
likely do more harm than good.

Jay,

So what's going to happen if someone ****es you off at a ski race?

As I heard bunch about how courts in USA work (no I don't have any
personal experience, so these are just rumors) I don't think this
would be good idea. I'm not saying I wouldn't do this, because
probably I would do exactly same thing, but I think you might regret
doing something like that later on. Even though they would definitely
deserve every single punch.

Well, this Tues (last night), there were big bricks (20 kg type
bricks) pulled off their foundation (brickwork for plants on the golf
course) in the area of my previous accident, but at the top of the
hill. For locals, the bricks were close to the xc trail in the area
where tar is usually first exposed as the snow melts. There was a jump
built over the planter. Based on an absence of facts, I conclude:

-Snowboarders pulled the bricks off a planter and put the bricks in
the xc trail
-xc skiers moved the bricks off the trail
