Poster: A snowHead
|
I was learning how to ski with rented parallel skis.
Then I bought a pair of cheap carvers and on the firstday I suddenly found myself able to turn freely.
If people condemn or laugh at carvers and have learned skiing the hard way then they are laughed at by the cross country skiers, who go up to the top of a slope without the assistance of any mechanical means.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

saikee, Ive often seen those cross-country guys plodding up the piste, and wondering why? Is there a rule that forbids them to use the lifts? I can see there might be great adventure in stepping out into the great wilderness beyond the resorts, but surely it would be sensible to go as far as possible on "public transport" before striding off into the distance.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

markP, except that we have a name, a date, a place and a challenge - just down the road. Not often that a troll can be pinned down to that extent. He must be a either a baby troll or a complete amateur! We shall see....

snowHeads are a friendly bunch.

Because when you stop tackling a challenge (win, lose or draw) you may as well lie back and ask them to screw the lid down

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Masque, society runs of the oil of manners. Some things offend others that you may not find offensive, but respect should temper your conduct. (Similar thoughts are being expessed in the thread on "Racism".)
Not all "challenges" should be tackled. To a burglar the challenge is your front door or window. To the virus writer the challenge is to get into your computer and be a nuissance.
The challenges to tackle are self improvement or helping others. I hate rules as much as you, but most rules are actually sensible. Bashing them just makes life worse for the rest of us.

You know it makes sense.

Wow. I disappear for a day or two and a certain Mr Neal pops his head up.
Long time no see. How is the most stylish black skier in Europe (and probably the world)?
