basically if you just talk on a cell phone everywhere you go in between runs, smoke copius amounts of herb on the lift, and stare at girls while running into stuff, you'll blend right in....

this is a joke right?
do people really talk like this?...i mean in this day and age? that sounds like freakin 1970's 'hot doggin' lingo.
i live in one of the biggest resort towns in north america and i don't hear too many people speaking like this...and if they do they have to be some lame ass tourists who i just have to film for the 'idiot' section of my flick.

You missed the two most important ones:
"that kicker is SICK"
"Look at all the powder... I'm STOKED"
or together
"Look at all this sick powder, it's making me totaly stoked".

replace "kicker" with "booter"
- xrusos0
see 2cents, you're getting into it now... i knew it was only a matter of time. :)
- farmer0
replace powder with "pow"
i always liked
"polls are for pussies" - skiers
"knuckle draggers" -snowboarders
and
"face shots" for the deep pow

"shredding", "Snowbetty" is a chick, "Yardsale" is when someone totally whips out! There are many!

Let's go smoke weed in the trees.In CO, at Vail, the Vista Bahn chair is also know as the Rasta Bahn due to the windshield that makes it prefect for smokers.
Also, don't forget to get a ride on the Gangola.

to really get the chicks, get a fake cast and put it around your left foot and sit in the hotel loby talking about how you broke it going off the expert pass doing a 360 twist with a crotch grab.
hey... it worked for larry in 3s company.
