#3 happened due to the fact they set regulations and standards to force all the top tiered, top certified instructors to either quit, leave, or step down. It was cheaper to hire "throw away" instructors who ski bum for one season vs. those of us that actually chose it as a career. They keep a fraction of those with higher certification to teach the throw away instructors. Its sad, because I watched a bunch of amazingly skilled instructors leave after 15-20+years of employment...

dude this is so accurate hahaha. Was talking with some dude on the lift and he was a ski instructor. The only problem was he snowboarded his entire life and the resort made him teach how to ski. So he had to learn how to ski literally while teaching other people how to ski. Resorts are stupid.

LOL, I know this video is a week old by now, but I just happened to run across it last night. Although a skier by trade, some of my best friends (and my kids) are snowboarders. I have no problem with them. Here's a suggestion in dealing with the #1. My mountain of choice is Whistler, and even prior to Vail Resorts picking them up just over a year ago, they have a large "Mtn. Safety Department". You won't find them up near the Harmony Horshoes or in Glissandro Glades, but you sure as hell see them towards the end of the day when they crawl out of the woodwork, just as you want to ski down the mountain to your beer, hottub, whatever. My way of dealing with them was to buy a Yellow parka (which they all wear as a uniform, to differentiate from the real safety people, the ski patrol) . I ski down the trails at a pretty good clip, getting air over the rollers, and there they are, standing by their "SLOW" signs, and what do they do? They just stand there and wave at me with a friendly smile. They think I'm one of them! Trust me, it works.

Minnesota shredder that took a year and worked mountain safety for Vail Resorts. There’s 2 types of Mountain Safety employees: 1. Mr bag of dicks that you described 2. Shredders who don’t piss off people that know how to ride which then they get yelled at by the boss to write more warnings so we just pull Jer Bear’s passes so season pass holders have less people to deal with.

This had me cracking up, and considering a job as an instructor, lol.

This should be top 5 ways Vail is slowly killing snowboarding.

@HuyLy94

Vail bought the largest resort in Australia in 2015 and every year since without fail they've increased lift ticket prices by a pretty significant margin. Day pass lift tickets used to be AU$120 per day before the acquisition, last season around peak season (August) prices were about $160-170 if you bought it at the ticket office on the day. Rumour is they're upping it by $10 again for the 2019 season. The worst thing is the resort is inside a national park so parking there is limited, Perisher (the resort) has gotten around this by building an underground railway which goes down to a neighboring valley but a one way trip is $30 so realistically lift passes will come to $220-230 a day (US$158-165). Prices have risen too in response to Vail at the other major resort in my state. On top of this the only town that's close enough to the major resorts operates as a local government sanctioned cartel where all the businesses have agreed to keep prices artificially inflated and also to never allow any chain stores to set up shop. This is because the entire town basically becomes a ghost town during summer and all the businesses there have to make as much money as they can from June to September.

Unfortunately that resort has its own village at the bottom whereas Perisher doesn't because they don't have a head lease from the National Park service so the only land they can use is the land directly below the existing buildings and the chairlifts so they can't develop any biking facilities, the result is everyone just stays at Thredbo during summer so the town (Jindabyne) becomes a ghost town.

"It's all downhill from here" best catch phrase ever for an angry snowboard channel.

Number 4 is so relatable because I am on the race team at my local resort, and enjoy riding park - and the chairlift that is used for the park is also used for the race trail, and like 5 beginner trails.

a mountain safety job sounds like a great way to ride every day and ignore all violations so you can ride everyday, thus leaving people to get injured, thus less people on the hill which allows season pass holders more access.......

I ride in NC and the dumbest thing the resorts here do is turn every blower on the mountain to full blast on natural powder days while it is already snowing heavily. You can’t see more than 10 feet in front of you and it’s extremely dangerous. Blows my mind.

This could be the angriest video yet!!!!

This is one of the best videos I’ve ever watched

#1 Chairlift operators that are more concerned with scanning your ticket than controlling the lines by making certain chairs are full. It's the difference between standing 20 minutes in line or standing 5 minutes in line. Skiers/snowboarders must complain when you see long lines and empty chairs. That is your hard earned money being spent to stand in line.

How about chairlift operators ( on beginner lifts ) that don't speak the native language of the resort ...

First video ive seen, hilarious and so true 😂😂😂 just subed

Lol I love it when they merge park and beginner trails in a lift. Sometimes you can get rail transfers on to a beginners head lying right ahead of the rail

Our hill has one chairlift out of 2 not running this season due to money concerns but on the holidays WHEN PEOPLE WANT TO GO SKIING OR SNOWBOARDING, they cancel night skiing, or are just closed in general. Oh and we only get night skiing on fridays

#4 so true. Both parks at Whistler do exactly that.

“Pairing people that don’t give a shit about anything else with people that don’t know they need to give a shit about everything around them is a bad idea.” It’s so true it hurts.

Think I should become a season pass holder, the logic is undeniable.

Be cooler if you did.

My local Mountian resort now has 2 season passes that you need for an actual every day pass. You buy a season pass but it doesn’t come with “peak days” which is Saturday and Sunday, so you have to buy ANOTHER “peak day” pass to be able to have a legitimate season pass. The move was to lower crowding, but the lines are the same this year, and it just screws over ski racers like me or snowboarders/ who ever else who trains on the Mountian several times a week by making us have to sell a freaking kidney to get on the snow.

"It's all downhill for 2019" well that turned out to be accurate

you should do one about the worst types of people at resorts.. like the skiers who bum rush the chair when it finally opens after being closed for safety checks even though youve patiently waited at the front of the line, or the guy who throws his red bull can right before getting off the chair even though there are trash cans at the top, the skier that makes really wide S's while youre straight-lining that black run, the people that bump into the workbench youre at and slam their board down causing your mounting screws to fall right into the gutter beneath, and the person chopping up the fresh pow making quick turns instead of attacking the pow like it owes you rent

Guess I am lucky in Europe. In France the ski&snowboard instructors need to go trough extensive training. Austria it is easier to become an instructor (basic level), but you still have requirements and getting to a higher level you really need to be good. Oh and those people from number 1? Never seen them here. Paid parking is a thing though, especially in the big French resorts. 90 euro to park your case for a week.

As instructor for vail resorts, I can confirm. They hire noobs to teach noobs, it’s pretty shocking

Love It!!

Possible reason for #3 is that the resorts are owned by skiers and skiers are incessant in keeping us down. So if they can make that learning curve take a little longer, they have ignorant snowboarders around longer to harass and make fun of.

And if they want to get to the level I am now they can just do a 1 week course when I needed a further 300hours teaching, 2 weeks tech and teach training, more first aid, another background check and the pass rate is still like 60%.
