what do you guys do on the chairlifts?

I do this all the time, the trick is you have to be the only person on that chair and you turn sideways so your legs are on the chair seat, you prop the tail end of the board up on the back of the seat, then it's a piece of cake. Hope that helps.

When I'm riding the chair with my friend, we play a game called psych at the mid station....Where we stand up and act like we're getting off there but sit back down on the chair at the last second! It totally screws up anyone we're riding with. They usually end up getting off the chair there! It's pretty funny!

God I hate the safety bars, especially when they have the ski holders that DO NOT work with snowboards and end up making you hold your snowboard in some uncomfortable position the whole damn ride.

And chair strapping is pretty legit, but you do have to be careful to be gentle and not kill the chair out of common decency. Sometimes the lifies will get mad at you for it, if it's busy though they usually don't have time to pay attention.

I usually just talk to my friends or who I am with. I try to get a bunch of snow on my board, then on the way up hit a bit off when someone I know or anyone really goes under the lift, and try to hit them with snow. Once I hit my friend in the face and he screwed up real bad.

Yea, there is definitely a big difference, for example between someone who is high and someone who is drunk while operating a vehicle. The drunk person loses perception, motor-skills, reflexes while a stoned person just gets paranoid and tries to get home as fast as he can 10 miles under the speed limit with his bag of Dorritos :laugh:

When I'm on the lift I normally just strap in my other binding by putting down the safety bar and putting my board on those bars for skiers to rest their skis on, then i just bend down over the bar and strap it on. And if I'm by myself I just swing my board up onto the chair to strap it in. Most of the time though the lifties don't make me take my other foot out though cause one of thems my cousin haha. Also sometimes I'll throw snowballs at people but I don't anymore cause one time I hit a guy and he got really mad and had ski patrol come talk to me haha.

if you have 2 friends with you, so its you 3 and the single gets on, talk about how you had a gang bang the night before and be disgustingly graphic, then when your bout to get off, ask what hes doin later.

^^ that is how I usually spend my time. Speak in a loud and clear voice to your buddy how hot the gang bang was last night and that you hope no one got crabs this time. Last year I asked one of my chick friends I was boarding with how the surgery went and if she was getting used to having a penis. The 50 year old women on the lift was mortified.

Another one of my personal favorite is put arms up and lock your fingers behind your head and have one of your buddies bob their head like they're giving you a blow job. You get some funny looks. I don't know why but I love being an ass at the hill :p

Usually in this order...

1. Light up a smoke.
2. Take out the flask and tug on that a few times.
3. Scope out the snow bunnys.
4. Laugh at the guys that biff it hard all the while thinking to myself "I hope I don't look that stupid when I biff".
5. Look for kickers (then turn around so I can memorize what the line leading up to said kicker looks like) all while doing the first four. :D

And lastly, just for good measure, drop my gloves off the chair so I have to spend the next hour searching for them just to find out that some punk ran off with them. Problem solved though. I now have gloves with lanyards. It may be gay but at least I wont have to go buy anymore gloves at ski resort prices. :)

tried the shit part before, didnt work too good, i had a giant peace of shit get stuck in between the boards on the lift and when getting off the lift, the lifty saw it and stopped the lift. he ended up taking me to the lodge and i had to have a huge talk with the staff about safety and how its a family resort...yeah it wasnt a good day

Well my list of on lift shenanigans includes many of these activities plus many more. I am a how should I put this.....a person that has slightly higher than average speaking volume. So sometimes i like to pretend I'm a Spanish soccer announcer and scream GOOOOOOAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!! I succeeded in making a little girl just stare at me and cover her ears at Jay Peak once that way. Also another fun game is elf tree wizard it's like rock paper scissors but way better and the explanation of how it works along with the motions for each thing make whoever is a stranger on this lift is generally slightly uncomfortable.... always a good time. Also harassing the imported lifties is always fun to; for instance last year there was a guy named Gustavo that had no idea why I was screaming Goose at him and making countless Top Gun references cause he was from some other country. Oh so much laughter on those rides up.

Play with the tunes, drink some mt juce (cap'n mo!) from my flask, then some water to hydrate, put in a fresh dip (yes it is nasty but its how I quit smoking, now I gotta figure out how to quit dipping.. Ef) Then I attempt to strap in my right foot, most of the time I can get it but on smaller lifts it is hard especially when I have a 166 and no easy back door flows or anything just Burton missions. Still have not got yelled at for this, at least not that I could hear anyhow, my tunes are kept at a comfortable ear bleeding level. Then watch people fail or win, and think about how much I love this sport :)
