Hindu caste in skiing

For ancient cultures i have to write an essay comparing an aspect of our life to the social hierarchy found in Hinduism. Obviously i don't really believe that caste system exists to that extent in skiing but i thought it might be interesting to see where newschoolers placed different classes of skiing. Where would you guys put: snow bladers, gapers, family vacationers, racers, park rats, ski patrol, park rats, powder hounds, ect... on a social pyramid. Its all in good fun.

It's not really the same thing. There's mobility in skiing classes. But maybe if it were, gapers would stop fuqqin up lips so that they could move up in their next life.

Joke makes no sense because the reference has no connection to the subject. Now if you said that gapers were the untouchables like john did it would both make sense and be funny. This is because as the lowest members of the indu caste system (as the name suggets) the untouchables are like snowbladers in that they are despised.
