i know most of us read that ignorant article by kristen ulmer in ski press : 'Jibbers, love em, or hate em' well i emailed the editors on this article, and they sent it to her, and this is what she has to say.
'SKi Press forwarded me your letter, nice one.
I grew up at Pats peak, that's why I'm writing back. Small small world.
Sad to see it pissed you off. You referenced many times jibbers cutting
people off- but I never mentioned that kind of thing in my article. The
article was a train of thought that I wrote in half an hour, and was
meant to be funny, so please tell me you laughed at least once.
i might be at Pats peak this winter, for the first time since I
graduated from henniker high! it'd be nice to meet you on friendly
terms.

'Regarding a skateboarder's likely response to our visit: insofar as skateboarders have complained, whined, and reacted like Nazis about the rollerblading movement, they have dug their own grave by willingly falling victim to the desires of corporate business men, and becoming the virtual New Kids on the Block of the 21st century. Their self-willed popularity has inevitably marked the end of the grass roots-skateboarding culture, and the beginning of a mass marketed tool for money. Skateboarders have invited everyone into their world, including rollerbladers, by allowing worldwide fame to envelope their culture. Although skateboarders may disaprove of our visit to their secret spot, they may rest assured that this event was initiated/welcomed by their own narcissim.'

looks like your the dumbass now. Look at previous articals in that publication, there poke fun at alot of people, not like they really mean it, but more just for laughs. if you can find the artical about tele skiing that was in an issue last year, you will get a big kick out of it, unless you tele and have no sense of humor.

Anything Ski Press writes should be completely and utterly ignored.
