Five things skiers never do (unless beginners)

Skiing has its rules of conduct and it is wise to learn to know these or else you will find yourseld "marked" as; the beginner, the dork, the unusual, etc.....

1. Never but never bring you skis in the chalet, in your hotel room or in your bed!

2. Never but never wear jeans while skiing! Worst is wearing tight jeans while skiing! If you do not why it is verboten then think,,,,,of your safety!

3. Never but never smoke while in a lift be it for two, four or 20. Worst is smoking "the weed" to be cool!

4. Never but never lean your skis against the windows of the chalet, the windows of a car, the windows of a store!

5. This last item is perhaps the most important for your ego and rebirth from rank beginner to at least intermediate skier. I have won many a beer because of this "clue" of the rank beginner! You see the moment you walk to the lifts you are "graded" by other skiers!

Please at least learn how to carry your skis, at home. The rank beginner has hundreds of inappropriate ways to carry skis, boot and poles! There is no enough space here to list all postures.
Watch pros,,,patrollers carry skis, poles, first aid kit, emergency oxygen tank AND lunch.
,,,,instructors carrying two pair of skis AND list of clients
,,,, ski racer carrying three pairs of skis, two sets of poles, extra jacket AND helmet!

They all have the same technique!

There is a proper way of carrying skis. Learnt it before you get to hill!

Lol!!! Bring out the video for Christmas....could be a money spinner!!
