seemore 66 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Yeah I think they should put warnings and pictures on your lift pass to show you what can happen if you go outside the boundaries. Who gives a shit what its called or if a few skiers or boarders die I reckon there is too many anyway Link to post Share on other sites
Slippery Jim 65 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 And everybody should pay double the price for lift tix so Ippy won't ignore the 7-foot high fence. Right! Link to post Share on other sites

ippy 66 Posted March 16, 2013 Author Share Posted March 16, 2013 And everybody should pay double the price for lift tix so Ippy won't ignore the 7-foot high fence. Right! I tell you what, next year i wont be there, so im sure no one will be ducking ropes. Itll be fine! you can pull the fences down lads! So long as no one says "slackcountry", we're good! We've done this dance so many times, so let me just save us both the arguments and just post a representation of what i would write and you can imagine how its going: :typing: :typing: :typing: :typing: Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 on the cigarette packs in Oz, they print disgusting photos of smokers lungs etc in an attempt to put people off buying them Link to post Share on other sites
Hokkaidough 4 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Didn't know that. Do they feel it works? Link to post Share on other sites
Dunga 1 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 They believe that the plain "drab olive green" packaging with the horrid pictures will reduce the smoking uptake within teens by 10-15%. I've got to admit that the packaging doesn't make you want to put anything from those boxes near your mouth. On the topic of ducking ropes, possibly photos of people who got into trouble skiing out of bounds would actually put people off skiing all together... Link to post Share on other sites
HoTRoD 2 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I thought they were going for completely plain packets. Or is that in the UK. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 They discussed introducing Aussie style packs in te UK but it got shot down by some smoke company lawyer Link to post Share on other sites
GoodEgg 0 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 An interesting read for sure. What interests me is how resorts have such varied policies on this subject. No wonder some people are confused. Though what happened at the end there with the ciggies?! Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 A bit more open-ness on the subject would help things, even if it riled some people up at some places! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Somebody suggested perhaps resorts post pics of dangerous features you may encounter in a particular area, then someone suggested posting pics of people post accident to discourage people going they an area.....like they do on ciggie packs in Oz. the packs have pics of cancerous lungs etc on the front of them Link to post Share on other sites
