Is my brother to blame?
So we're in the park at a medium sized jump where you can't see the run out, some kid hots the jump and crashes, just slides out of a 3. The kids dad puts up and X with his POLES standing 2 meters beside the jump. Some guy at the top tells my brother to go, and my my brother being Dyslexic and needing glasses doesn't see the x untill it's too late. He landed and avoides the kid, but got yelled at about how he's retarded by the guys dad. Is it his fault?
Yes. Should probably also look into contacts or a prescription lens for his goggles too.
yes its technically your brothers fault but i don't blame him due to his vision and that dad needs to chill the fuck out
ahh, the sorry-im-blind reason always works for me too!
Yeap, his fault.
Tell your bro he is a homie. But can’t be doing that shit.
an X backwards is still an X
It's not horseshoes man. Your brother avoided hitting anyone. Also there are no rules about randomly yelling at people. Sounds like the dude didn't know what was going on in a number of ways but hey freedom of speech.
You only have to stop and talk to someone if there is actually an accident tho. so hopefully you guys just skied away.

100% your brothers fault. Anyone who knows anything about park or skiing etiquette knows a big X with your poles means 'no go' and a circle with your arms means 'all clear'.
Yes. Fucking retard.
where does his dyslexia fit in this story?
I would bet any amount of money on the planet no one told him to go. I am calling bullshit on that detail because it is so obviously false. Also his dislexia should not be a factor in skiing safely and if it is then he shouldn’t be skiing.
Ok because what I thought is that you stand in front of the jump with an x with your arms, because from distance people can't see poles well

I know for sure he did because he apologized a lot after

in a coaching course i took, it said never to close a jump by making an x with your poles as people cant see it
they said to use your arms which are much more clear
it isnt your bros fault if he couldnt see them

the amount of mental gymnastics here to justify his actions is enough to win a medal

Orange looks good on you. Keep up the good work.
Yeah its your brothers fault if dad had the X up but accidents happen. hope everybody's ok. He should get some contacts.
