Off-road skis
You've seen people tromp across the car park with their skis still attached (makes your skin crawl eh? — like fingernails on a blackboard). Budgie from Whakapapa Ski Patrol tells of a time he saw a new skier slide off the snow, then shuffle across the gravel to the front door of the ski patrol, lean forward right over his tips, almost falling over in the process, so he could knock on the door. "Wouldn't it be easier to take your skis off?" he asked. "That' s the problem — how do you get the damn things undone," was the reply.
