When I have a gopro and people say "What is it" some kid though it was a phone....also when your filming and a kid goes in front of your shot and asks you "Are you filming pros?"

gaper: Don't you hate that thing in the middle of the jump? It blocks me from doing it..

me: (Look at the rail... *sigh, then ski away)

i dont think thats a gaper quote... only because they are obviously trying to get better, and i have asked people how to do tricks when im stuck

That's when you go and slay the rail and then watch the gaper try and fail.

LAWL JK TAT BE MEAN

Tell him/her its a rail to help you walk back up the hill.

So my buddy is not really a gaper, but he used to be sponsored for racing.

This one day at whis, we built a pow jump which everyone was flipping, so my buddy gets on top of it for his last hit and says:"Ok, im gonna try one of those things... I don't know what its called but im gonna do it!". A whole second into the air, he turns his body into a lincon loop/flatspin and opens up, lands on his head and breaks his pole. hes still alive if your wondering.

Never let your racer friends try tricks unless you want them to die.

too many gaper comments about GoPro to remember.

Most of them think they only take pictures and I tell them that's right so they shut up

Over heard two kids talking at the top of the park...One was a skier...the other was on a carver board.

Skier:"What trick should I do off the jump?"

SNB:"I don't know...there are not many things you can do on skis unless you start spinning. How bout a back scratcher?"

Skier: "Nah, back scratchers are too easy.

Skier: (Proceeds to "Lui Kang" grab off the jump.)

All the while I'm waiting to drop. :)

Also...On the lift with old gaper dude (pretty nice guy tho)

Gaper:"Is there an event going on over in that course? (Pointing to the beginner park where there were a bunch of five year olds side jumping.)

Me:"No I dont think so...)

Gaper:" Is that course just for boarders?

Me:"No....(I then start to laugh because a gaper just ate shit off a jump to my right.)

i dont see how this is a gaper quote. if i bring my caylors and we end up taking a park run, i dont hit any rails.

also need to mention that if i have my park skis, im pretty good at rails, just i dropped 900 on a pow set up, and dont want to ruin the bases with rails

i have a friend who basically stopped racing. This one day he was called to fill in for some guy. He beat them all on K2 revivals...

a few friends and i built a jump at crystal in early season. These hard core gapers were sessioning it with us and they kept doing turns down the run in, it got really anoying because they ruined the jump. Anyway, one of them tells me the most devastating story i have ever heard. His dad was hard core christian and the kid brought home a pair of hellbents, the dad chopped them in half with a power saw and did not pay the kid back or anything.

I don't know any quotes, but there is a shit load of gapers that simply ride down a set of stairs instead of hitting the rails.

i was on the chair with two kids who were talking and they looked down at some people taking carve turns on a groomer and looks at his little gaper buddy and says "why are they taking turns there arent any bumps" this kid thought that unless there are bumps on the run you dont take turn. classic

To be honest a good portion of the ski community who isn't (aren't?) on any type of ski forum website like NS or TGR have never heard of Chad's.

99% of gapers are out skiing because they enjoy the sport! They may not have the same drive as a nser does but they definitely love skiing!

I've recently lost patience for gapers at Grouse, in Vancouver. Haha there's a large portion of riders who are very obviously on their first legs trying the sport, and I have run out of imaginable ways for them to continue to get in the way.. Everywhere! I know it's not a quote but if you ski Grouse you know what I'm talking about :P

Saw a few kids take their skis off say "Oh there's a ski rack," put them on a flat box (which is next to Cobra Dogs in PC), and get in line for food.

and i saw at least 3 people at different times sitting on the start of some down boxes, thinking they were seats.

something about those stairs,, gapers can't stay away. it's a proven scientific phenomenon

at northstar i saw some gapers climb up and pose for a picture on a hitchpost-log jib. there were some pissed off snowboarders..

was teaching a class a few days back, when we got to the top of the carpet lift this kid grabs a pair of poles. i tell him he doesn't need them yet. he refuses to put them down insisting " they make me faster".

the WORST one I get is from some of the people in my school when I talk to them about trick skiing. I asked a kid if he had twin tips and he said yeah sort of. I looked at his skis and they were rossi race skis but the backs of the skis were curved up maybe 1/2 an inch. He's actually pretty cool, he hits urban on dfd with them, so I gave him my shitty solly foils with 9 din binders until he can buy his own.
