Icy and bumpy skiing

Not sure what you people are whining about, although all man-made,
Heavenly has done an excellent job to make snow and grooming, skiing
is actually quite decent in morning for groom runs, for about two
hours. However, by the time noon comes around, all there left are icy
and bumpy trails, and not-so-good skiers are crashing all over the
slopes; local hospitals reported 50+ a day brought in to emergency
room on a busy day; they sure make good business. Skiing on an icy and
bumpy trail is dangerous and not so enjoyable, so, how do you ski the
"icy and bumpy" trails and enjoy the skiing at the same time? Stay on
the loose snow, where you may find "bumps" and loose snow/"powder" to
play with, fun stuff.

That trail was neither icy nor bumpy.

Lumpy? Wasn't he on Leave it to Beaver?
I didn't know he was a skier.

You're thinking of Lumpy Brannum. Bass Player for Fred Waring and his
Pennsylvanians, later the host of "Uncle Lumpy's Cabin", before becoming
famous as Mr Green Jeans on Captain Kangaroo.

No idea if he [ob]skied.

In the history of snowfakes posting he has not once accurately described
any video or terrain or ski move properly & understandably so why would
you expect any thing else from the loon.

I would say that's because you gappers don't know how to read video,
here's something you gappers can compare with,

just to see what kind of "icy" conditions the "pros" are referring to.
You whine because you can't handle it, which means you are an Eastern
skier, but you cannot even ski well on your own turf. You remain stuck
in your low class little knowledge.

That was pathetic. That doofus was barely staying alive on a green
slope. As for ice, there was only a few patches. And all the snow
was all groomed. Seriously. Pathetic. I could do better on a double
black diamond with my emergency rum flask in one hand and a Little
Debbie Marshmallow Supreme in the other.

Just more supporting arguments that the loon is a loon and a waste of
time. He is worried about class and ability none of which he has based
on the videos he posts and the idiotic comments he makes.

It is snowing here in Vt Okemo the conditions are what I call soft if I
walk on snow and I sink in my mud boots and do not here crunching it is
soft. Can not wait for tomorrow when it gets cold and it will be nice.
Let the GS skis rip.

That's why I don't understand why you guys even bother to click on his
links. I think I looked at the first couple and determined that he was
a fraud or at best one of the many that consider their skiing skills
to be far better than anyone else does. I'm thinking fraud though
because of the insistance and repetition of the claims.

I just heard on the new that "New England resorts" can expect "up to a
foot of snow". Apparently someone thinks that is a lot of snow! Heh
heh heh heh heh heh.....
