  • I honestly have no idea why this man would do this. I am beyond grateful it was not another guest as I would hate to see people turned off the sport due to his actions. It is clear to see he just does not like snowboarders citing times in the past . The fact his class was no where around and that he did not hit the other riders going by , I can not help but think this was a fast thought with rage and not the first time. It does scare me to think people like this are teaching children and I do hope this is the last time this ever happens to anyone on the hill again. Especially from an employee. I do not think the resort is at fault as I know this type of behavior is not accepted . I do however think this man needs to be held to a higher standard. I truly always try to inspire and bring good vibes on the hill. Unfortunately we all run into a few "Deans" in our time. I hope we can grow from this, learn , and treat each other with a bit more love and respect.

      @@halfcabking Yes hopefully you can learn from this. You failed to avoid the skier ahead of you which is a clear violation of the skiers code.... not to mention you were in the wrong for buzzing the kids in class at speed. Then you went full Karen over something that was a non-incident until you made it into one. The instructor was clearly NOT trying to hit you... and you asking "where are you kids" when you knew damn well where they were just makes you look even more disingenuous.

    I teach alot of park lessons and I NEVER close a feature for my class. A big part of park is park safety and teaching them to lookout for skiers and riders bombing the hill and cutting you off, it's a very important skill. Also, if I'm next to a feature to be able to close it quickly if one of them falls I'm clicked out of my skis or snowboard and I'm on foot, it's the fastest way to block the feature and hold up the X. There's instructors like this at every resort, grumpy old people who are super nice and friendly until you get on the hill where they turn it into something it should never be. It takes alot to get me mad, especially on the hill in uniform, and I wouldn't have even given this boarder a second thought.

      The snowboarder didnt violate any code. The park demands safety from downhill skiiers. The skiiers code reinforces by stating that a skier should only stop in a safe visable spot. The top of a jump is a terrible spot to stop unless there is an injured person on the landing. Beyond code, Hitting someone with a pole is called assault. Its a crime no matter what the code is.

    22 years of snowboarding experience, and I gotta say this is the same type of behavior as a guy who blasts over a blind knuckle and then throws a tizzy at people who are in the middle of the trail.. just because people SHOULDN'T be stopped in the middle of the trail, don't assume nobody is there unless you have a spotter. thats just an example of "never assuming" - obviously you didn't need a spotter in this situation and on a jump of that size but you observed the instructor and his class, and should have moved on to the next feature. the jump will be there on your next lap - plus you kinda snaked the little kiddo's and impressed literally nobody in the process.
    Experienced snowboarding involves being situationally aware and defensive (just like a driver). never ASSUME someone is going to stay in their lane, never ASSUME that a skiier isn't going to make a sharp cut towards you without checking their peripheral (happens all the time...), never ASSUME that a person would stop on top of a jump for no reason (could be someone in the LZ...). If you are more experienced than the instructor and his 5yo's, you should be able to assess the situation and could have avoided this confrontation very easily. For the record I don't usually stick up for the instructors/patrollers since i've had my fair share of wild problems with them, but c'mon man.. this video is pretty cringe from an experienced riders viewpoint...

I've had many bad experiences with them targeting me, friends or other snowboarders. Just because we're snowboarders, it got so old. Bay area tourists are the worst, then add the instructors and ski patrol that just want to pick a fight with you.

    The instructor needs to be fired for this. Period.
    Back in the 70’s an instructor swung his pole and another instructor who was a friend of mine, and the tip cut his cheek just missing his eye. My friend wasted no time in sidestepping back up and clocking him, right in front of to his private lesson. I was on patrol, and witnesses the whole thing, I let the instructor know he was in the wrong. He “decided” not to mention it to the ski school director.

    Going through the comments I think I'm close to alone on this opinion but the narrator says he passes the class and then about a hundred yards later goes off the jump where the instructor is standing. Doesn't the downhill skier always have the right-of-way? Aren't you supposed to wait until somebody goes off a feature and see if they land before you go off that feature? What if the instructor went off and fell? The narrator would not have been able to stop and avoid a collision. Also, I feel like whenever you are between kids and their instructor you are in the wrong place. The boarder did not have to go off that jump, he could have gone to the side of the feature and avoided this entire interaction. I'm not saying that the instructor should have put his pole out, but an aluminum pole that weighs less than a pound is not going to hurt somebody either not an excuse but not something crazy either. I think both people screwed up here.

    Instructor (Northstar?) skis to the crest and stops just a few seconds before you arrive, turns around, and sticks his pole out. He pulls his pole as you arrive and looks like he didn't hit you with it. Hard to tell what you could see past the lip, but bombing over a blind is a bad idea. Not sure what level you 360 was, but it kinda looks like it was blind on the other side. Ski only to what you can see. Maybe you can comment on that.
    On the other hand, stopping at the crest is a bad idea. He had no idea who was behind him. The instructor could have looked uphill way before to get an idea of traffic and let you go by if it was the kids he was concerned about. A lot of things he could have done to keep the kids safe, like gathering them on the approach and then ski up to the lip and count them through. I always am cautious with groups of kids. He didn't do it right and should have been apologetic. But he stuck his pole out. Hard to apologize for an intentional wrongful action. I'd hate to be him if he got your ticket pulled. Tough crowd here :-).

Also, you shouldn't stop immediately after and hike up the landing, as there could have been someone else coming down and would have smacked right into you.

      There is a way to show someone is on the landing spot but that definitely is not a ski pole in your way. Typically it is both hands raised and crossed above your head' that is a clear sign someone is in the landing zone. So do not defend that twat please.

    • @Red1676
      @Red1676 Před 2 lety +5

      ACTUALLY, no. That's not what's told in the park rules. It's the wrong way to do that, the instructor was in fault 100000000000000%. If someone one is hurt, the universal sign that a feature is closed, is to put a board, skis, or poles crossed on takeoff. I've been snowboarding way longer than you have to the point I've lost count AND been out every single day I can get, not a weekend warrior. A person on the side of knuckle doesn't mean anything, especially with the roots of snowboarding because back in the day, it usually was a person filming. The last spot a person should be standing when a person is down, is on the knuckle because when committed to a jump, you're not focused on the tool waving his poles, a clear takeoff without the universal sign, means it's ok to go. Even when I grew up in a heavily burton sponsored ski hill that had multiple pros "training" there for 98 and 2002 halfpipe olympics bs, if someone was down and there was no board on take off, you got you're ass kicked for standing on side of knuckle. If you're in the person's blind spot standing there like a dipshit, you potentially killed your friend. You have to put your shit on takeoff, while you check on the injured, or get ski patrol. It's also park rules to not sit on landing, so if his class was under the jump, its his fault for having them there, which I've seen people get their passes pulled for sitting on landings, even if it's 20ft down past landing. Don't defend this skiers actions, you don't know fucking sweet all about park etiquette. NEVER STAND ON KNUCKLES TO SIGNAL A PERSON IS DOWN, PERIOD. PUT YOUR BOARD ON TAKEOFF AND GET SKI PATROL. NEVER SIT ON LANDINGS EITHER.
