i hate little kids...they always go right where you dont want them...my frind did a huge 360 huntony overtop of this kid once...because he skied into the landing hill and my friend didnt wanna hike back up.....but anyway, back to what the post is about....i did a 540 landed switch and nailed a snowboarder cutting across the landing hill...i was barely even on the ground when i hit him....so the ski patrol comes over and starts yelling at me for hitting this kid, when i was in the air before i even knew he existed and still hadnt figured out what happened...the patroller's like 'next time just avoid the jump, it's better to not hit the jump and save a life, than take the jump and kill someone...you have to watch for other people' (meanwhile i'm almost unconcious on the ground wondering where my skis are while this snowboarder gets up and rides off) i was so pissed....and he cut up the topsheet on my ski!!! (just to piss me off more) i didnt ski for the rest of that day becuase of it

many times just randomly catch an edge and smack onto the ground, it happens to everyone. over christmas break I was skiing with some friends and waiting for this chick to strap in her board bindings, so I was just kinda sliding along on this flat part sideways. I caught my front edge and went smack down on the snow in front of a lot of people. it was quite embarrassing

at our local hill the runs are kinda raised above the bush and I was showing off for these two girs we were with, not paying attention to where I was headed I flew of the edge of the run and into trees, I'm pretty lucky I didnt get hurt caus I was movin pretty fast. oh and this other time I was on the inrun to a tabletop, went to do a 180 to come in switch and ate shit 15ft before the jump infront of about 20 people, didnt hurt but really imbearsing.

I once was coming up to a rail fakie and this punk kid cut in front of me and tripped me up right before reaching the rail, he said I should be skiing backwards, idiot! He was the kind of the person who uses the jump before rails as a kicker for flailing straight airs!

My friend (tricky on this site) was dropping in switch to try a fakie 3 but he caught an edge and biffed so hard. All the little 9 year old snowboarders were laughing their asses off. It was gold

i hate to admit it but at the end of the season at killington i came off the new flat rail switch and hit some other kid...real damned embarassing...even worse was getting the rail again later only this time the kid wasn't there, so i went into the trees....at least if you hit a tree going backwards it's newschool :-P

Not exactly switch, but I think we've all done this...or im just a tard.
Just standing there, doing nothing, standing right angles to the slope and I just lose my balance and fall over. I was sober too..

I have taken out many many snowboarders.... a few trees, a couple of snow fences.... ummm I ran into a rail once.... hit a big chunk of ice once and broke the tail off my ski..... um the worst one was when I landed switch, then like 200 feet later I caught an edge, and fell over. I got a 4th degree separation of my shoulder and needed surgury. it sucked. yep.
I ski fakie a lot.

ohhh crap, i have too many good ones to tell. the best one that sticks out in my mind was the last day @ SMS sesion 3 last year. i was gonna do a zero off the 30 ft. and i dropped in switch. well yknow that trick you do with one foot kinda in front of the other when youre in switch? i kinda overexaggerated that. the next thing i know, Mike D's standing over me sayin 'Yeah, Szocs broke his collarbone coming into a jump at the Gravity Games.' Appearently, i had switch carved into the other takeoff (SMS people know what im talking about) and had smacked the back of my head on that snow. pretty funny but i was pretty fucked up after that.

What the fuck is up with you guys park, do people just sit in the landing, here if you eat shit, you get your ass off of the landing fast. No one stands on the landing unless the are trying to commit suicide.

I did a spread eagle nut grab to switch in the pipe at snoqualmie. I came down and ran right into Chad Suave and it ripped the cap off of his 1080 and he skied away like nothing happened while I picked up my shit. That sounded dumb, I guess you had to be there.

one of my favorite things to do when approaching a lift line is to start doing constant 360s on the ground just to look cool. one time i tried to start spinning in powder while going way too fast and caught an edge. i hit the ground really hard on my back facing downhill with my skis up like rabbit ears right in fron of about 20 people in the lift line (it was SO embarassing)!

yeah the worst is definately catching an edge on a revert at really high speeds... it is pretty fun ragdolling though... anyways my worst was one time two years ago riding down this trail at this place in wisconsin switch and snagging my inside edge that was farthest uphill... the ski snagged like pulled my groin so hard then my leg snapped back against the other one crushing my balls
