"re:Boarders / skiersDon't be to hard on Callum S.P. We do need some of the tea tray riders to litter the slopes by sitting in the middle of the piste!! they make great slalom obstacles !! Well Fran and his crew do anyway!!!
Its a tribe thing ! Some of us have evolved into masters of the the art of carving , and some still belong to the COLDARSE tribe who grunt and have there own basic language of grunts and shredding (what ever that is!!)

Boarders have their uses, get 2 or 3 together and they make a great ski rack ? They sit so long in the middle of pistes it is worth just building some snow up behind them and using them as a jump ? skiing VERY slowly beside a couple of them can provide a wind-break, in fact getting a group to link arms in a circle is almost as good as an igloo ?
But........ the biggest use is just to make skiers feel better about themselves and their skiing because you can never look that bad ! (right then, this should get the discussion ? going.. hehehehehe)
Another good use; Entertainment whist waiting for drag lifts/chair lifts. Where else can you get such slapstick antics as boarders trying to use them. Best thing is they just keep trying again and again until their week is over

re:Boarders / skiers
The Dark Side must be resisted at ever opportunity, this stain on the white pristine landscape is an affront to the Ski Gods !!
I for one call for all the Ski Druids to join together and partake of the potions ( Brandy Chocolate ) (Rakia) and Horlicks (For S.P.) for these will help to steel ourselves against this evil practice!!!!!!
