Yeah that's the whole point i just want to snowboard as much as possible, and make money when i can. The snow parks iv'e been to and might get hired at have runs that go on for like 3-5 minutes, squaw valley is the biggest it takes like 10 min to the bottom might sign up there. But yeah i have done Alot of snowboarding and i'm fast as fuck, i just need to practice more tricks now.
i was a liftie during feshman yr of college. got free pass and just rode whenever i wasnt in class/working. in my experience, the good boarders/skiers worked lift, or were park crew. most instructors were adults or kinda annoying kids lol. but its an awesome experience plus some hot snowboarder girls. although im kinda biased since we smoked and drank without fail all the time during our shifts. this one dude, would plug his laptop in lol, and play warcraft...
When I was an instructor the only thing I had to buy was my jacket, because we got to keep them. But we got a hefty discount on them and they were really nice jackets so I didnt really mind.
where all did you apply to? I've sent in apps to Mammoth Mtn, June Mtn in CA. and a few mtns in Colorado. Now for the east coast.
Well fuck you very much, no need to be sarcastic. Anyone would think you were a bit of a prick? We can both question things, don't take it personally.
yeaa, snowboarding is awesome and getting paid to teach it, even to little kids, sounds like a dream come true. I wish I didn't have so much baggage I so I could afford to live doing something like that. Go for it!
lol, snowboarding is awesome. there's no way that being good at snowboarding can be a bad thing (also, I took a peek at your profile pics, you ain't a bad thing either)
Fuckkk i still haven't gotten a reply from any of the resorts yet.. This is so gay all i want to do is get money and snowboard. Guess i gottah try some more places.
I say it's a great idea. Should be a really good experience. I used to really wanna be an instructor but I never did since the nearest resort was too much of a hassle to get to at the time (no car). Now I work at a boardshop selling snowboards, so in a way, in the end I got a good piece of the pie I wanted. ps. It's delicious.
