      Have you considered emailing your footage to some department heads of vail resorts? This makes me super upset and I wasn’t involved you were very patient and respectful. I would have handled this very differently. This makes me never want to ride keystone. No one wants a tainted pass for no reason.

      We sure don't, and it might seem like that is a good thing but I know a ski instructor who was ploughed in to by a Belgian tourist and it was appalling how little help she got from the resort. There is no structure in place to even get the person's details or even hold them accountable. The instructor is in her 50s and will not be returning to her job. So maybe there is a middle ground where you can still enjoy the thrill of skiing fast while making sure people stay safe.

      @monopoly5496 Місяць тому +1

      I mean, it was just one guy who was being a total douche and spread the fake news. And that's all it takes, one guy with responsibility to abuse his position. The head of safety was the guy screaming at them to slow down and he then proceeded to tell the others they were "bombing" down the mountain and "not slowing down", for whatever reason.
      As someone who's been skiing all life (my parents put me on skis at the age of 3 I believe) I usually go extremely fast, because it's just a lot of fun to speed past beginners at 50mph. And I admit, it's not very nice and I've had people in shock because of my actions.. But spraying whole ski groups / courses with snow when you come to a stop from those speeds is just too good of a feeling and only once was someone genuinely mad. Most people here in Europe take it very lightly.
      Anyway, I am not the only one who does this regularly. Where I ski, we have a lot of professionals and groups of racers which can reach speeds of over 60mph when going from a black run down to red / blue and it's a normal sight to see them full sending it down a beginner's run to get to their lifts.
      So there is no "speed limit" or anything and I find the thought of this absurd. I live in Germany and every season I go to ski in the Alps. We don't even have ski patrol here or whatever the people with the yellow people think they are.. Ski cops? Of course everyone looks out for each other and generally people are very chill. The only very dangerous thing is that many of us (but mostly Austrians who ski for every single day of the season because they live right next to the mountains) get pretty drunk before skiing. I have met so many people on the lifts, who seem to be blackout drunk. These guys are the real danger to the beginners because if they ride like they do normally, which is mostly the case (they are usually very experienced), they go pretty fast and sometimes it's hard to stop when you're so drugged. They are responsible for a bunch of accidents every season but usually they only (severely) hurt themselves. Trees are their biggest enemy.
      To wrap this book up: I believe full sending it is pretty normal at the Alps. The place where people mainly rent their equipment even (to determine how easy the skis disconnect from the shoes when a crash occurs) describes the most experienced tier (tier 3) as "aggressive, high speed riders". The US is, once again, a land of the dumb rules.

    I used to ski _Keystone Resort_ back in the 1990's! This was a safety patrol power trip! Immediately asking for your passes kills the conversation, so that you can't tell your side of the story and defend yourself. The girl safety patrol immediately starts playing the victim by saying one of you "flipped her off" and that you all were "yelling" at her. That's ridiculous! I would've been furious! I think they just wanted to make an example of you guys, or they targeted the wrong snowboarders. I used to ski _Keystone Resort_ when _Whistle Punk_ (black diamond) still existed! It was a very narrow, steep trail, which was sadly removed, because too many people got hurt hitting the trees, I think. This was back in the 1990's! I guess you can't "bomb" _Schoolmarm,_ these days. That's sad! Great channel! I like it! You all were just fine! You are great snowboarders! 👍

You were being perfectly safe, boarding well within your ability, and you were far more polite with these idiots than I ever would be. Good on you, dude. You have my full respect.

I only ride backcountry with professional skiers on a splitboard. It would make all mountain resorts and gondolas and lifts more pleasant if people would finally grow up and stop the grudge!

    @samsplaying 5 років тому +136

    I ski at keystone and I called them to express my concerns about this! I took notes of my conversation and below are the notes I took with the questions I asked and answers I got back.
    Q: How fast is someone allowed to go down schoolmarm while still being considered safe?
    A: Its subjective, it is determined by the flow of traffic, how many people are there, time of day, etc.
    Q: If I’m going down Schoolmarm and Mountain Safety thinks I’m going too fast, what should they do?
    A: Mountain Safety should educate the skier/snowboarder. They should talk with them about it.
    Q: Are they able to make the skier go to a school without talking to them about it first?
    A: No, they must have a conversation first.
    Q: We established in the first question that safe is subjective. This could lead to a mistake in judgement. What process is in place if mountain safety makes a mistake?
    A: If someone gets in a situation where they are not happy with mountain safety’s actions they can reach out to me (mountain safety patrol main office manager @ 970 496 3101) they can talk with us about the interaction and we will review ad investigate the situation.
    You can call them too!
    One way to express a concern could sound like this:
    I ski here and someone I associate with was treated unfair while skiing here. I want to know if you think this is okay because I want to avoid being treated unfair. I can see myself being caught up in the same unfortunate situation where I am treated unfair because I ski the same way. I feel like I’m at risk of unfair treatment because of the actions keystone mountain safety have taken. If you want to review the video, I can email you the link.

    Second - I love Keystone and won't stop skiing there because of an isolated incident - not saying I've never had issues with ski patrol, but it seems like this was an extreme situation that I would assume is not the norm. I dunno - I could be totally wrong, but I've skied Keystone since I was like 5 or 6 years old (I'm 27 now) and while I have been told to slow down - I've never been stopped, and I ski FAST. I can get top to bottom of Schoolmarm stupid fast and no one has stopped me. As a skier - I do think snowboarders are targeted more than necessary. I've had my fair share of moments that boarders have pissed me off - but I've been plowed by skiers just as much as boarders.

    As a beginner myself they seemed just fine to me. I’m 100 times more comfortable with really good skier/ snowboarders around me because as long as I’m predictable they will easily avoid me.
    I think the resorts are really asserting a strategy where they don’t want to support the locals and advanced riders. They want the casual vacationer that’s going to ski for an hour and then spend tons of money at the spa. I could be wrong though I’m new to all this.

      You are very correct. I have been to multiple large resorts and I think that they mainly cater to "snow bunnies" that ski 2 runs and then blow tons on spa's and high class food, etc

    I've never seen something like this in a European resort. Slow areas are more of a trust thing. Big slow sign, the resort staff just trust you to slow down.

      yes, stuff like this doesn't happen in europe (except maybe for italy, where the gendarmerie (carabinieri) polices the slopes). i remember hearing the german eurosport commenters talking about an incident like this, during the 2015 alpine ski world championships in vail/beaver creek. on their day off they went skiing themselves and a chair lift operator stopped the lift after they had already gotten in, because according to him they (longtime experienced skiers) had gotten in "wrong". he basically held them and everybody else on the lift hostage for several minutes, while he was giving a lecture on how to get on a chair lift correctly. the commenters' take home message was that they enjoy a lot more freedom in europe than in america, where everybody just loves to talk about freedom.

      @@SeriouslyMikey the ski-carabinieri were introduced in 2003. since then i have seen them both in val gardena and val di fassa. they can fine you for "dangerous riding" without any tangible criteria, just based on their personal judgement. to be fair, i never had a bad experience with them or even heard of one. i just don't like the idea of having a paramilitary police force on the slopes, seems too authoritarian to me.

      Maybe ppl are generally more respectful in Europe. There are skiers and snowboarders who are reckless endangering other ppl. I got mowed down like a snowplow on River Run at Keystone. A new snowboarder who had no business on a blue. A couple snowboarders flew out of the trees and one took me out on a green run back to the lift. I had a beautiful black eye after that. TG I was wearing a helmet and goggles. We gotta put others' safety ahead of our own personal fun. These guys seemed respectful tho
