We have the same thing. But it tends to be 12-15 year olds, wearing Adidas tracksuit pants, who think a demonstration of good skiing is going as far as possible down the hill. They literally point down the hill, and go, ad they have very little control. I have seen them crash into a few people, and it's always a fucking train wreck, with skis and bodies everywhere. I'm sure most people on NS, who, let's face it, are some of the best skiers in the world ability-wise will never go flat out straight down the hill. Part of the fun of doing the run is buttering, tapping etc.

Exactly, that's why I hate skiing with my gaper friends. They just go straight the hill and get pissed at me when I show up a minute later because I was busy finding cool things to tap/butter off of.
