@@RogerThat603 Its funny you say breckenridge, I've done both ski and snowboard. Been up as high as the double black diamonds and I've never had any patrol stop me when I went down the mountain. I would be going nearly 30-40 mph about down them hills because its so much ice up on the top. Once you hit the trees is all fresh snow and then from there you hit blues. Not a whole lot of people do those so I can get away with flying down the mountain at blazing speeds. Only time i ever made a mistake was when black had blues an greens beside one another. I cut through blue back into green and didn't see a hill ended up flying over the hill getting almost 10-15 of air and landed on the greens where there had to be over 50 people all over. Only time in my life i made that mistake and sure enough ski patroller yelled slow down. That or just come over and say you can't do that. All i said was i didn't see the greens till i flew through the trees. no way to prevent what you cant see over a steep hill. Either way I've seen some good an bad on the slopes but for patrollers to stop you and try an take badges those are just power hungry A-holes trying to fuel themselves up. My motto is if your gonna ruin my week/nd of the slopes you first gotta catch me. I just head back to my cabbin switch my gear an jackets get back out and say F them.

This never happens in Europe. If you ski down a closed run, it's at your own risk (of injury, I mean, or possibly of losing your insurance cover). In contrast, the company in charge of the lifts and slopes cannot be held liable for any accidents happening as a consequence, so they won't bother. In fact there is no such thing as a "ski patrol" policing behavior on the runs - except perhaps if someone is obviously and continuously endangering others by racing at high speeds in crowded areas. I was once held up by a ski patrol in Steamboat Springs simply for going too fast in his judgment (although I - as a very good skier - was in full control and was making regular (carving) turns, not taking a straight line, and leaving lots of space between myself and others). I was let go with a warning after I had explained that - as a German - I had never had that experience in the Alps. I lived in the US for a year, and I can't help feeling that Americans like to abuse a position of power (similar story with customs officers), whereas in Europe authorities are more keen to educate, not to torment people. It's odd that the self-acclaimed "land of the free" is so intolerant of individual freedom and people taking responsibility for themselves.

But I was making the most of it just cruising around as a 40 something guy when a safety guy flagged me down and demanded my pass for ‘pushing it too hard’, which was funny because I was absolutely not doing that. I told the guy I had an ikon pass to which told me he didn’t care and to hand it over. I told him to pop his skis on and catch me, then Downhilled the rest of the way to the hotel I was staying at, hopped off my skis and got inside before he caught up.

One time I accessed a closed trail via trees at Beaver Creek. It was chock full of powder. Got to the bottom and the patroller waves me over and says, "yeah, are you local?" I say "nope, come here every year with my family." I bet If I said I was local he would've taken my pass. Nice mountain but way too expensive these days...

[@ImHClikeSnowbound]

First day out, goes and ducks a rope and skis a closed run with admittedly poor conditions and falls multiple times doing so... yeah the ski patroller was the asshole here lmao. All I'll say is, when the end of shift sweep comes through, we don't check closed runs. So if you were to blow up on a run like that, theres a good chance were not going to find you. Not to mention the extraction could be an absolute nightmare depending on what run you decided 'should' have been open. Ski patrollers arent cops, we arent out there to ruin your good time, and most of us get paid shit or dont get paid at all. Were out there for the sole purpose of helping people in all scenarios, especially if they get hurt. So lets just chill out a little bit eh?

[@nathanoliver4031]

Do you live in the northeast these mountains are nothing? Glorified hills. And as far as I’m concerned and most decent skiers are concerned the snow patrol is just there to complain when you do a back flip or something. You can clearly see he’s not the only one on the run so if anything were to happen he had company. I feel you but this guy stopped him and was triggered off the bat

[@KaliAndy2]

With how many people were going down that run giving guy a warning first like he did to all the others would have been just fine. No reason to escalate like this.

[@ImHClikeSnowbound]

@KaliAndy2 he was going to warn him, but he clearly said "the run that should be open?" which leads the patroller to believe they're just going to go back up and ski it again. I find it hard to believe there are places you can ski where a patroller is just going to pull your pass first time they see you back there. Not to mention 10/10 times if you just say, "ah youre right, shouldnt have ducked the rope, wont happen again" they say "aight cheers" and thats the end of it.

[@KaliAndy2]

@@ImHClikeSnowbound If he was giving warnings to 10 people every minute not pulling their passes this guy deserves the same chance. Do you pull this guys pass simply because you assume he might do it again or because he actually did it? Its no different than throwing someone in jail who is on probation for a crime you assume they'll commit in the future.

[@ImHClikeSnowbound]

@KaliAndy2 he got the same chance everyone else got.... until he showed zero respect for the patroller with his comment. And even then he wasnt going to pull his pass until the skiier continued to be disrespectful. And at the end of the day he didnt even radio down and get his pass pulled at the base...so considering all that im not sure whining about it on youtube is justified. a more accurate comparison to this scenario would be speeding 5 over in a pack of cars. The cop isnt going to pull everyone, but he will pull the dude who gives him the finger driving by.

If I'm west of the Mississippi, I have my beacon, probe, and shovel, and will not duck ropes. But since the only avie danger on the east coast is at places where I'm going uphill, poaching or not poaching comes down to what hill I'm skiing. If the hill respects able customers, if that's the culture, then yeah there's a damn good reason that rope is up. I respect management and patrol and will not poach: • Smuggs • MRG • Magic • Mt. Bohemia • Middlebury Snowbowl • Jay (mostly, I might poach Green Beret if I've already skied a particular secret trail and it was fun). • Wildcat (before Vail bought them). On the other hand, there are plenty of hills that show nothing but contempt for able customers. I try not to ski those hills, but sometimes I have no choice (I compete in FWQ and work in the industry). If a hill has no respect for me as a customer I have no respect for them or their ropes. These include: • Gore (Gore is the best in terms of badass cliffs and woods, and the worst in their contempt of able customers; I give zero flux about Gore's silly little ropes.) • Whiteface • Killington • Elk • Bristol • Stowe (pre or post Vail... god I hate Stowe.) • Wildcat (post Vail).

no way is that 13in snow, looks like barely 2cm

[@outerbound7136]

That’s what happens on the east coast when it rains then snows then rains. Gets hammered and skied off by mid morning, almost always. We almost never have that kind of fluffy floaty stuff that dreams are made of. This year was even worse than last.

[@Tyler-mz2sm]

This is why I think some company should make reversible jackets and hats. We've all been there... You do something sketchy, think (or know) that ski patrol have you on their radar. So what do you do? Duck into the woods real quick, change your jacket and hat color real quick. Thats all the info they have on you. Suddenly your just another random dude, and not the dude with they jacket they're looking for. PS. Also you're a mad man for not going straight to your car.

[@zanaevans7403]

They do make reversible coats full on, this guys just a hack when poaching you don't stop until the bottom. Shack to shack the pro move is shack to bar.

[@Tyler-mz2sm]

@@zanaevans7403 Sometimes there isn't a bottom to go to though. The only place for you to go is to another lift. I've been screwed over by this situation. They radio down and have ski patrol wait for you at the lift. Now, say you have the reversible jacket... you're golden. And ya, I've looked into the reversible jackets on the market, and they all kind of suck. I'm talking like a legit jacket that you can flip inside out.

We get plenty of powder on the east coast. Fresh powder is nice, but a compact and groomed surface is consistently better in my opinion.
