Old ski chick (still hot and skis better than you)

Pretty sure it refers to powder skiing, when you smear through turn to scrub speed

The first person to coin the term 'Smear' was by Bryan of 4bi9 fame, he was employed as the house chef and the way he served avocado was via a guacamole smear, little is known of Bryan as his whereabouts is deemed a mystery

Smear has been around for a very long time as a synonymy for spreading anything in the matter that butter can be spread on toast. Early uses date back to the 1600's. You can smear butter or cream cheese on a bagel. You can smear grease on your classmates shirt.
