Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Who or what really irritate you on the mountain?

I know some people dislike the increase in the number of people wearing helmets. Here are my pet hates:
1. Anyone with an excessively extrovert hairstyle / helmet cover that screams...."Look at me, I'm an awesome skier" e.g. Glen Plake
2. Smoking above 900m. Fresh air, beautiful scenery and you want to make it smell like a heavy industrial plant on Merseyside?
3. Anyone on a monoski. Utterly pointless things used mostly by late middle aged Italian smoothies in their one-pieces.
4. Snowboarders who grind to a halt just behind me when I'm ushering children down a narrow icy run. Skiers do it too, but they don't make the same scary noise!
5 Daft snowboarder language. 'Goofy', 'Switch', 'awesome air', 'fakie', and wost of all the need to use the term 'dude' in every sentence.
6. Everyone who is a better skier than me. ....... which is pretty much everyone Very Happy

What irritates you? Mad

Actually, as the OP can I just say that I am also at my most chilled on a skiing holiday. Then again, down't we all have those little niggles? Oh, and please be nice. This post was meant to be a little light relief after the rather fraught helmet thread.

Not on the mountain but people like you who create inane lists of trivial hates. Really, in the greater scheme of things does any of that matter?

most irritating thing on a mountain.....

1. Snowboarders who get off a lift and stop in the exit path to fix themselves and cause obstruction.

2. people who stop in middle of mountain when you're trying to ski down it.

3. people who don't look where they are going and think they own the place.

patronising know it alls, more normally shouting off their bs on SH rather than actually skiing to their probably limited ability on a mountain.

I've been thinking, but I can't think of anything.

I just like skiing and being on the mountains. It's such a privilege to be there, why would you stress?

I am not easily annoyed but...

If you do not havevcars in your country please learn the rules before visiting mine,

The large black tarmac'ed area is known as a road. It is for cars: large, heavy, harder than you. They will hurt and draw blood.

The smaller one to one or both sides is a pavement: that is where you walk to avoid being killed, to death.

Oh, and skis are carried on the shoulder, tips down, tails up SO YOU DON'T SMACK ANYONE AROUND THE HEAD PARTS.

That is all.
