r00kieThere are two types of ski instructors. The PSIA hard on's like you described, and those of us who maintain the minimum cert required to make some cash, ski for free, and get gear discounts.
sharpskiI don't know if it was mentioned, but ski instructors are about as worst as it gets sometimes. I spent a month in japan staying in a house with like 8 of them, with most of their friends being instructors. I have never heard such a group of people talk about the "cert levels" as much as them. Holy fuck did it get annoying, they carry themselves so high for people who cannot ski anything other than groomers, looking like a fucking robot. Now I'm not saying all are like that, but I really got a negative vibe from most of them, given the reason for this rant. They would constantly talk about the technical aspect of skiing and never shut up about how "sick" their black crow setup was. Some of them started a Carving challenge on instagram, now how sus is that? I would take them into the off-piste terrain and they'd ski like total a boner off drops, natural hits, ect. I don't understand why they see themselves at such a high level just because they can follow a standard. Niseko, japan, this goes out to you!
Has anyone else noticed this before?

Bened_notnilYeah freestyle instructors always seemed pretty chill and just glad to be skiing. The ski school people are the issue
Young_pattyThis whole thread is just skiers hating on skiers lol.
Personally types of skiers I hate are:
- Pete Koukov, like why tf are you in super unknown? You've had several pro movie parts and already ride for Line and Jiberish- gtfo and save the space for an actual unknown that deserves it.
THE-Albino*I always love tossing flat 3s and backies in front of the 13 year olds that think their the shit on gs skis. Gotta keep em humble, however there was one time I forgot about the race skis and accidently went flat 5 and caught the tails kinda hard.
SuspiciousFishBunny hill heroes are the fucking worst. They are always dressed as gapers and act like they are hot shit because they can ski in a barely controlled manner slightly faster than the rest of the beginners on the hill. Half the time they are drunk and are so close to wiping out kids and others just trying to learn. So many times I wanted to sucker one of them to the back bowls to smarten them up a bit.
skiitsbetterskier/snowboarder in their 20's who rides out of control in beginner terrain to hit side hits because they aren't good enough to hit the park jumps or off piste cliffs.
galardogodFucking academy kids , no Bryson,you do not own the hill because mom and daddy could send you to the academy . They all come in to the park at once and cut off everyone else .
pinkcamo1000The complainer dads.
Here on the east coast if it isn't prefect packed pow groomers with 0 bumps, they will complain.
Out west if they aren't getting fresh tracks in blower pow every run, they will complain.
on the best day of the season at the loaf this year, I heard more complaining in the lift line than any other day of the year. And it's literally only men who do this, I have never once heard a woman loudly complain about conditions. It's cause they're all rich guys who are used to buying perfect experiences and when they can't pay Mother Nature to cooperate with them they get frustrated. It's sad and childish.
CeleryAll of the 10-12 year old Gould kids. They just come flying in on their race skis and then stand on top of the jump line for 5 minutes with their instructor on the knuckle who will yell at you if you drop before them. It takes like 10 minutes for all of the kids to go since they travel in packs of 15-20
CrunnchyVanManGatekeepers, in any area of skiing, but there are a lot of park kids that are toxic about this... they Shit on newcomers, throw shade for not having "the right setup", act holy cuz they're the best skier at their local, pisses me off, there are already enough barriers for people trying to get into skiing, newbs don't need assholes to beat them down after they spend near 1k on a ski setup and a pass
BasedSkierThe mfs who are trash but shit on you are the worst, i was at a resort i dont usually go to and a kid was talking shit cuz i slammed doing a sw 2 but when i saw him ski he was on near death verge of slipping out on every rail and coming off after sliding 2 feet.

friendlyserbianthe tryhards that try to flex when they go their own way and ditch the boys and then try to say they found the best patch of powder and that everyone missed out. So fucking annoying.
RaarlWhat exactly is so terrible about them? Genuine question, I sometimes browse TGR and don’t know what to make of most of the people on there.
pinkcamo1000Lol anyone who does this was probably skiing groomers cause they're tired and didn't want to admit it
Bened_notnilJerrys, racers, park rats, nordic people, Backcountry skier, Posers, Telemark skiers, Freestyle teamers, Old men, Ski bums.

CatdickBojanglesJust the real douchey dentist type guys. Most people over there are chill but some take it way to serious.
Cade2U mean like on here?

CaseyI think people that tour are super annoying. Like oh suddenly Black Diamond skis and tech bindings made you not a gaper, GTFO
DominatorJacquesI am a Poser old man ski bum. Give it to me straight.
Bened_notnillol no hate from me, if you are more than one of them it cancels out
JAHBRADOR1. The “I used to be able to do all these tricks but now I can’t do anything because I got injured/old” guy. Like unless growing old/injuring yourself has made you physically disabled, you should still be able to do at least some tricks. It immediately makes me think that the person can’t do any tricks at all ( which is totally fine, just don’t try and lie about it ). Not that big of a deal, but for some reason really stamps on my balls.
Bushdid9_11You too will be old and injured one day my friend.
