 Poster: A snowHead

There was a bird getting off at a mid-station in VT last year, and she has the tightest a rse and the tightest white leggings on I have ever seen. I think it was French/Dutch half term and the place was full of lissom young things wearing leggings instead of proper trousers. It was incredible, it was honestly the highest concentration of fit girls I've ever seen. It seems to be a Continental habit, along with the absence of fatties.

I must apologise, I ski with headphones all the time and have never came to grief because of it yet. I even ski with them in the park, where there's a high concentration of idiots waiting to land on your head, and am still alive.

slowphil, On a long slow, slightly crowded, narrow, blue valley run I tend to agree. As a boarder it helps avoid the blindsiding issue. Not having poles I often clap to let slower sliders know I'm coming from behind.

Megamum, It's a bit muffled but leather palms make enough noise to be heard. Unless they're wearing buds of course

I have to admit to grabbing an Italian's jacket and dragging the SOB out of the lift queue when he pushed in . . . it felt GOOOOD.

You know it makes sense.
|
Many years ago in Sauze I saw a quiet speccy guy bullied out of the bubble queue by four Italian men. He hung back, and once their doors had closed calmly removed 2 pairs of skis from their rack, stood them to one side, and gave them a cheery wave as they set off for the top! Classic

I would have thought that rear ending into bird in white ski pants was a good thing. especially when you can blame it on poor visibility 
but jokes aside, skiins with music is something that should be done with caution. its one thing to have something on low volume on the quite days, but busy slopes, off piste or the park it should be a no no. and it doesnt help that helmet makers sell in helmet headphones and you know the big purchasers are park and 14 year old that want to blast away their tunes.

extremerob, Interestingly enough it's my daughters that have a go at me for occasionally putting my buds in, they reckon I should be enjoying the sounds of the mountain (quite rightly). And this from when they were about 15 and 19, and continue to do so 3 years later, so one can't tar everyone with the same brush.

In the snowpark I'd rather people have their music pumped directly into their addled brains than have the pisteurs broadcast crappy French pop music via loud speakers.
