  • oh and a snowboard only mountain does exist...its called mt high. lol

  • if everybody could carve decent this would not be an issue. moguls are stupid and are no longer relavant in a world of shaped skies unless you like bad knees. And NO a snowboard turn done right is no different than a ski turn just one less edge. just cause most people suck and most people snowboard doesnt mean you can judge us all. and fu*k walking in SKI BOOTS.

  • I love snowboarding but I think this was almost juvenile on Burton's part! </3

  • Taos was going bankrupt so they had to allow snowboarding. The remaining three will follow soon enough.

  • how come all skiers look like complete douchebags?

  • the funny part is these resorts got good publicity from this...

  • Theres like 10 other resorts in VT that allow snowboarding. But you come to Mad River Glen? The terrain there isnt meant for snowboarders. Its all moguls with one or two groomers. I know, some snowboarders arent all that bad. But MRG is where I go to get away from the rest of the obnoxious snowboarders. The bums that tear up the good terrain. Poaching wont solve your problems. It just makes skiers angry.

  • This is not about racism or hatred,it is about maintaining certain terrain features that snowboards alter.I support the ban,because the bumps I find at mountains without snowboards have a far superior pattern.I also support the poachers.The poachers are exercising their freedom of speech (commendable civil disobedience).I am not a racist I value the mogul pattern a skier only mountain can provide. Perhaps a snowboard only mountain would deliver unique terrain features valued by snowboarders.

  • As an avid skier and someone who enjoys moguls I must point out the effects of an inexperienced snowboarder on mogul formation. When any inexperienced mountain slider learns how to maneuver in the bumps there is a fair amount of side sliding. The snowboard with its increased surface area tends to cut the top of the bump and elongate the shape of the moguls. If one were to compare pictures of bump runs at MRG with a snowboard friendly resort the difference would be obvious. Continued in next

  • @airglo moguls fucking blow

  • @airglo Note that you said "an inexperienced snowboarder". Well duh, inexperienced snowboarders shouldn't be on moguls any more than inexperienced skiers. An experienced snowboarder (like me) can do moguls just fine without damaging them. Many boarders are just too lazy to tire their legs on moguls and that's why they suck at them. Don't generalize when there's a lot of good boarders out there who can wreck on moguls as good as any skier.

  • @zSniperGuyz Allow me to retract the phrase "inexperienced." What I really mean to say is that the snowboard turn is a different shape than a ski turn and thus makes a different shape mogul. When skiers and snowboarders mix on mogul terrain the result is a less than desirable bump pattern. There are plenty of places where boarders can enjoy life and I have nothing against them, but there is real value for skiers to skiing only mountains.

  • @TheMarkman94 they hike the mountain at night and put the boards up there i think

  • I want to poach but idk how to get snowboards up the lift

  • i was at Stratton fr new years sitting at a bench by the waffle cabin a lady skier behind me were talking shit about snowboarders...she didnt know i was one...she said " I WAS ALMOST HIT BY ONE" 'WHY DO THEY ALWAYS FALL WHEN GETTING OFF THE LIFT" "THEY ALWAYS COME DOWN WILD" I TURNED AROUND AND SAID "LADY STOP WITH YOUR MORONIC COMMENTS AND GROW UP!!! YOU DONT LIKE SNOWBOARDERS GO TO MAD RIVER GLENN!!! OH BTW SKIERS FALL ON THE LIFTS TOO!!! she was speechless

  • How did you guys get your boards up the lift????

  • "Nitch" = Niche

  • Vote with your feet. I ski, when it's icy, and board, when it's soft/huge pow day, and I would never go to any resort that restricted either method because it's condition dependent.

  • if ur an anti poacher, ur gay, im lookin at you ski patrol

  • you can snowboard at Taos Ski Valley now! yeahhh!!!!

  • 14 people are skiiers

  • we should make a all boarders mountain!!!!

  • @extreme3point0 No that would make us as big of fuckfaces as them. Boarding and skiing equality bro. make love not war. all that good shit :-D

  • @extreme3point0 That would make us as bad as the skiers.

  • Whats the song from the Alta part anybody know?

  • i know this was going on a while ago... but do they allow snowboarding on any of these hills yet?

  • Ok, why do some Skiers and Snowboarders hate each other? Seriously, both sports revolve about sliding around, whats there to hate about? I don't mind the Ban on MRG, seriously how many of you would actually board there if it was allowed? The place is nothing special, with average vertical and Sugarbush getting the same amount of snow with more trails and fast lifts.

  • Mad River Glen is for those eastern skiers. Deer Valley is for rich skiers. Alta is for extreme skiers. And Taos Ski Valley is for those uncatagorized skiers. They all have one thing in common, they don't like snowboarders. Well I say give freedom to all snowboarders from all around!! Give me liberty, or let me poach!!!

  • I'm a skier and all my friends are boarders. If my resort didn't allow my friends to session with me i would totally help them poach every day.

    Some skiers just give a bad name to the sport.

    Ski patrolmen are such assholes.

  • The Alta one is the Coolest. Alta is like a Grateful Dead Concert. Most people there are old hippies. I think they ski there to avoid teenage punk boarders. Jeremy Jones fits in there fine I am sure they didn't even care. Half my friends ski and half of us snowboard. No reason to be racist there is enough of that in the world.

  • #lol

  • This VIDEO is awesome..I dont see why there are so many stupid problems everyone has to learnnew things sometime..I bet not all skiers could go a straight line when they started..heck i was hit by a little skier while snowboarding last weekend and i helped him up asked if he was ok and let him go ..how hard is that people just friken get along..everyone takes life to seriously..instead of treating boarders like shit , learn from them..maybe you'll like boarding..In my opinion its more fun :))

  • I think boarders should be happy. Jesus christ. I mean 4 damn shitty resorts that you can't enter big deal. I snowboard and I could give a shit. Is there skiing halfpipe in the Olympics? Didn't think so.

  • what is the song from the alta poaching?

    o ya and me and my friend arte trying to get at least 40 people to poach mad river. we dont have a set date yet but probably 2012-2013 winter. if you wanna join us reply to me

  • I love skiing without snowboaders when I can. It's not the culture. Advanced snowboarders are not the problem...I've just been plowed into by too many intermediate types...never by a skier though. Look around you!

  • what about those little skiiers who can only pizza and go down the hill faster then those kids in their racing suits and have no control. i get hit by them a ton, and so do trees and trail signs.

  • @powpowshredder I wouldn't think that someone calling themselves 'powpowshredder' would even be on the same slopes as these 'little skiers'... someday you'll get there man.

  • @audible67 skiers hit me all the time.skiers suck!

  • @24xedgex really?! I never have that problem when I'm snowboarding, but then I do take the time to check my blind side unlike many snowboarders sadly.

  • @audible67 probably cause 80 % of skiiers on the hill take up the entire fucking run and go as slow as possible

  • @justgiver91 damn man, sounds like you need to go where the big boys are...this is not a problem where I go. the problem is snowboarders not checking where they are going. but whatever...slopes everywhere are getting more crowded all the time and I'm happily being pushed into the backcountry.

  • @audible67 i ride whistler you queer stop trying to look cool on youtube its not working at all

  • @justgiver91 hahaha. look who's trying to look 'cool'. ..and just when I'm starting to think Canadians are above this kind of idiotic name calling. oh well...you must be about 15 by the sound of your comments. skied Whistler 5 times this year on ski and board and didn't have a problem with anybody. you're lucky, the slopes in Canada are awesome and the people (except for idiotic 15 year olds like you) are first rate.

  • I think the root of the "snowboarder vs. skier" thing can be blamed on the racer-type skiers. Never had a problem with a snowboarder, and through a lot of park skiing, it seems there is a mutual respect between us. On the other hand, my friends and I have had many an issue with racers and their spandex suits. I say let them stay at their ski-only places, so we don't have to deal with them elsewhere.

  • All ski resorts that discriminate against skiboarders are doomed to a 100 years of rain and icey slopes.

  • The Lass's well get the 5G not only they tare it up but spank any skier they see. absolute class.

  • way to be i cant wait im going to windells this season to tear shit up

  • what's the name of the songs?? super film :X

  • first song is destroy the usa by the briefs

  • Lighten up you pompous skiers who actually care enough to whine about this. Go whine to your mom that bought you lift ticket.

  • Comment removed

  • I bet half of the people that posted something negative about this video don't really ski as often (lets say under 30 days per/yr). I live in a ski town and we have no problem with each other; however, we do have problems with people that have little experience (noobs, gapers-whatever you want to call them). Fact of the matter is that this was some fun fed by a contest. If snowboarders turned a place like Jackson Hole into a snowboard only resort, we would have skiers poach as well.

  • im not sure some of the people helped our case by accosting the skiers. the rivalry is still fun. some places that are overun by us the skiers feel threatend and revert back to their old prejudices. i do see on average 2ice as many drunk skiers then snowboarders, snowboarders drink skiers get drunk. " as soon as you learn to dress yourself, you should probably quit skiing " had to do it a little while after i learned to tie my shoes...

  • lol i dont get it....isnt this like going into someone's back yard, skating their empty pool, then getting pissed when they ask you to leave?

  • haha the taos ski patrol got fucken pissed

  • Why is everybody on Youtube such haters, i snowboard and have a lot of twin tip friends and have never had a problem with a skier when i wasnt an asshole first. Also everybody saying Burton is only in it for the money... Well no shit I wonder why every other company started up. It definitely wasn't to make money, that wouldnt make sense. Burton does huge amounts towards getting people to start riding, and helping out LTR centers without Jake Burton snowboarding wouldnt be what it is today.rant

  • theres some heads that were doing alot for snowboarding before jake, and alot of innovation after Burton started.... i.e. Barfoot, Sims, Lamar, Mervin.

  • some of my best friends are skiers but this is just wrong. very unconstitutional.

  • i need all song's but i dosn't know the name please help

  • Damn straight son screw those friggen mountains

  • bahhh 4:09 ...ski fail

  • haha skiers got owned. they are justing fucking geeks who shits their pants all the time.

  • im goin poaching this year in vermont

  • fuck you dude, i dont like burton but i can appreciate what their doing. your just a closeminded fuck. you arrogant fucking skiers are assholes, you think you have the right to claim a mountain yours and not share it with other people.

  • technically they do have the right to do that.......they own that land....its like breaking into someones house then getting pissed at them when they tell you to leave

  • in responce to idontplay around:

    you realize this is just a form of protest. no one gets hurt by this happening its just people voicing their oppinion. i really dont know how you can lump one group of people into a stereotype...are all black people criminals.. certainly not.. what they should do is just implement strict rules that would prevent the the type of people you speak of. there are just as many snobby skiiers as there are what you would refer as"douchebag"snowboarder... yes i mean you

  • this video is so awesome! dude i've gotta do this sometime

  • I love this video.

    genius!

  • look up the word "nitch"

    then look up the word "niche"

    also, look at pronunciation.

    also, how about you try boarding before dissing it

    :-) have a nice day

  • do you have any idea how fast i can go on my ski blades?

  • ski blades XD XD XD XD

  • hey billybag

    fuck off!

  • yeah! the x games is definitely the best judge of how cool a sport is, good call. you are not a faggot at all

  • Well snowboarding is one of the longest lasting fads i've ever seen!

  • it is a fucking stereotype and these resorts need to be taught a lesson. We are being prejudiced

  • And yet you see how these snowboarders are acting from 3:50 seconds onward in this video, and it's no wonder why the stereotype exists. I agree that it's a stereotype, but going out and acting like jackasses in this video doesn't help.

  • skiers would've done the same if they didnt use poles lol

  • you're right :D

  • you arent being prejudiced upon......if you wanna go down those mountains so bad just put some skis on and they'll let you go down....and as for being "taught a lesson"...I think those resorts are winning the battle cuz they seem to be gettin into the boarders' heads.....

  • whole point is we got our own mountains and we got more buck$. but we dont(usually) care about the bucks. skiers sold out snowboarding by making snowboards and then profiting of them.

    thats why we got kooks like rossi and k2 making boards. yea they got tech, but thats old money. how bout this, to get more respect on the hill would you put on a snowboard instead of smokin pole's? probably not.

  • @MetalUpYourAss1980 No, you loser aren't being "prejudiced" (you mean discriminated against). Ski resorts are private property. They can decide if they're a "ski" resort, not a "snowboard resort." You guys have the right to feel pissed, but please don't cite the Constitution. It's not relevant and makes you look stupid. And it's true that snowboarders ruin some terrain features for skiiers. I have no problem with good snowboarders, but a resort can say no. Sorry. -law student and skiier

  • @MetalUpYourAss1980 It doesn't help when we poach that we act like assholes.

  • hey i didnt understand what they did to poach alta, and also does anyone know the song for the deer valley poaching? video was excellent

  • brighton backs up to alta....they rode up the brighton lift and hiked to alta.

  • You've got to admit, however, this video is great marketing if I've ever seen it. Remember, snowboarding isn't a sport.....it's a fashion statement. : )

  • Dude. Like dude, I don't know what draycoinian or sackgragation means dude. But this video is like sooooo bitchen'. Skiiyers are like stupid or somethin.

  • hahahaha!! he said nitch lmao

  • wow alta god destroyed bigtime that was sooooo sick. haha sweet

  • hahha the people at deer valley were being such assholes that was great.

  • Fuckin Sick

  • umm ignorent????

    we wouldnt be poaching these hills if we were allowed to ride there!

    and besides, your taking it a little to seriosly. isnt the whole point of sking/riding to have a good time?

  • haha your a prick. thats why we poach for ignorant asshole that think theyre the best. And you think snowboarders are the ignorant ones?

  • haha"your a prick" you're an illiterate dimwit, but cheers to ur comment

  • What should I have said? You Are a Prick?

  • yea, why the fuck you asking?

  • I got nothin against snowbording, but those guys at deer valley were just plain fuckin assholes.

  • well actually i ahte brighton i like snowbasin and snpwbird

  • dude i lvoe brighton dude

  • All power to the Poachers!!!!

  • I m a sno brdr. jerk burton rocks. poochpwder everware. duck ropes,(they are only asuggestion) jump anyware u wantto, peeple will git out of your way. Jerk burton will by us a bored resort soon and than we can ride fore free. everyone nows that skiers own all the Mts. and have hired those jerks in red koats with xcrosses on them to stop us. they only close the good stuff so they can save it for themselves,every snowboreder nows it.long live poachin,burton rules fuck skiers,patrollers an chicks.

  • whats the name of the song for alta????

  • Im a skiier, and i think what those resorts are doing is complete bullshit, only the old conceited bastards of skiiers hate snowboarding

  • Dam right your the kind of skiiers i like =)

  • they misspelled..."niche"

  • poaching:

    Poaching is the illegal hunting, fishing or harvesting of wild plants or animals

    Gonna hunt on illegal mountains?

  • kamil fuck off, this is the sencond kind of poacing.

  • sencond? poacing? what is all this crazy stuff.

  • that's his punkrock spelling.

  • He has some crazy spelling doesn't he.

  • Sh*t Yea!power to the poachers!

    And remember guys and gals, this isn'y about skiers and boarders. Its about rip-off resorts and their GASH policies towards snowboarding.

  • Jake Burton is a communist.

  • niiiiiice

  • People suck!

  • i got no problem with skiers. lots of my frends are skiers and i enjoy having them ride with me. and some snowboarders can be dicks sumtimes but this sh*t is just unfair to us boarders. im glad burton is doing this

  • i think its cool that snoboarders are doin this an im a skier. its gay that they ban boarders but dont be assholes about it and hate skiers cause its not our fault. most of us dont even support it

  • that comment is to

    skinum2424

  • makes me wanna punch some skiers lol

  • genatzt

  • High Baldy Traverse from Snowbird, best way to get into Alta via snowboard.

  • what was the first song and the second one

  • destroy the usa-the briefs.

    i dont know the other

  • some skiers are fun but some are just old and grouchy snowboarding rocks.

  • i was a skier before i got in to snowboarding and i dont think it is right to segregate snowboarders from skiers but it is not ok assholes towards skiers i mean i have been called names by people as i pass the snowbird alta conection and it suck but at least we are out there playing in the snow dong what we love and i think that is important.

  • thats great

    somebody should organize a day where every snowboarder that can make it goes to the same mountain and basiacally just over run it and kick some skier ass

  • rofl

    did you guys lose one of your skis?

  • stfu dick

  • haha pussy skier

  • You skiers make me fucking sick! you have no talent. get over yourself ass hole!

  • dude burton is a god in the snowboarding world now and its bs that we (skiers and boarders)cant shred the same slope

  • i ski, and i think its shit that u guys arent allowed at these places. the only reason skiers get dissed so much is because the old rich douches. Ima freestyle skier and im fine with snoboarders, we're all amigos right? so quit hating skiiers- its the old snobs you dont like

  • didnt like all but one resort decide to let all ride anyways?

    why do so many skiiers wear spandex?

    its creepy!

  • idk lol i wore spandex once for retro day at a local resort and i felt sooo gay lol

  • "Snowboardings not a sport...its more than that..Its a lifestyle a way of life."

  • . And for all you who say skiers suck fuck you... skiers are better in the park and have more skills due to the fact that they have two and not just one 'planks'. It also seems that many of these comments were made by those who obviously havnt been on advanced sections of the mountain because what they are describing is the beginner slopes. Deer Valley would suck ass for any boarder anyways... and who gives a damn about the east coast resorts? They suck ass

  • extremely true about deer valley, i'm a skier, and even i don't think it's worth it, unless you're some 80-year-old looking to say that you can ski a double diamond that at snowbird would be equal to chickadee. but don't trash the east coast mountains, they're still great, but just because they don't have helicopters, backcountry skiing, and aren't thousands of feet high doesn't mean they suck, but i guess you have to grow up east coast to love east and west, and i both ski and board too

  • Well you cant deny the west is infinitely better. Although I guess Vermont has decent resorts if you like ice.

  • good places have great powder, though. I go to mad river a lot, and they never seem to have too much ice, it's mostly fresh powder over night. but i know what you're talking about; the shitty overpriced mountains like stratton which i'm convinced they groom with a zamboni, and killington which i'm pretty sure is the same, except with moguls. you just have to pick and time correctly in vermont, but other than w ay, way north vermont, ski west coast

  • dont talk shit about the east coast. just casue we dont get as much poweder as west coast or we dont have 10 pro riders that ride here on a daily basis doesnt mean they suck. there are kids who rip out here.

  • have u skiied jay peak?? or stowe?? jay peak averages more snow then steamboat springs, breck, aspen, all those mountains in co excluding wolf creek. go ski jays glades on a powder day

  • It seems people blow the whole snowboarder vs. skier rivalry to a much greater extent then what it really is. There are good boarders and skiers alike. Obviously beginners on both sides suck ass and ruin slopes. Being a boarder and skier I know how both feel. Boarders do have a tendency to cut people off (due to a blind spot that skiers dont have) sit in the middle of slopes etc. Yet I have met some stuck up pieces of shit die hard skiers (usually old and wealthy)

  • whats the song when their at mad river glen?

  • taos allows snowboarders now =D

  • haha it worked.

  • Burton's stooges

  • I wonder if they'd let me onto the lift if I used a split board. Hmmmmm. Jake, wanna send me a sample? ;-)

  • DAMN SON. I like that thinkin haha. Keep poachin for freedom.

  • I know a lot of snowboarders who use to ski. I know 0 skiers who use to snowboard.

  • i know a skier that used to snowboard...

  • How did u get the boards at the top,SNEEK EM?

  • what are the songs?? they're beast

  • Taos opened there doors!!!

  • haha this is awesome.

  • the first song that is at mad river glenn is

    "The Briefs - Destroy The USA"

  • haha this is the best

  • this is frickin awesome. i'm a skiier but i don't really care, this is hilarious. keep it up. i don't see why snowboarders wouldn't be allowed at certain mountains. share the love! share the slopes!

  • OWND !!!

    btw What's the first song?

  • God forbid a private resort be allowed to do what it wants. These poachers are actually just being little bitches.

  • werd

    way to get in the way of the skiers. This video just shows why those people don't like snowboarders to begin with.

    btw this comes from a snowboarder that hates skiing

  • one of my favorite parts is where the old guy is like did you lose one of your ski's and the snowboarder is like i lost them all

  • Agreed, agreed. I'm waiting to use that line somewhere.  :-)

  • no snowboarding = no fun

  • poaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaached!­

  • no snowboarders also means

    Gay ass fucking helmets with spikes coming off them like fucking faggets, no fun, no dare devils to hit big air jumps, no one to grind the rails, and no one to go fast, so basically its just a bunch of boring people on a moutain

    POWER TO THE POACHERS!!

  • Let's try this again... No boarders means no morons sideslipping down trails that they can't handle, no boarders means snow stays on the trails... And Alta and MRG don't even have rails, it's all terrain that I guarantee would put you on your ass, which is where most snowboarders spent the majority of their time anyway. Usually in the middle of the trail.

  • uh you are retarded skiers doing their gay snowplow take off double the snow even the worst snowboarder could.

  • Wow, it's surprising there's any snow left on these mountains then.

  • you are so stupid i see more fucking skiers plowing snow than i do snowboarders even if those snowboarders are new your just pissed off becuase our sport is way more popular than yours get over it you picked into the wrong sport sorry that you did that to yourself

  • Yes I am devastated at my idiotic decision to start skiing at 4 years old. I'm not too concerned about which is more "popular," I have a good time skiing and I'm sure you have a good time boarding, and that's all that really matters.

    You should really learn to write in sentences though.

  • screw all that POWER TO THE POACHERS boarders can go where they want when they want were the same exact as skiers it like there being racist against snowboarding who does that

  • the constitution is not vague, they just tell you that so we don't revolt against washington when they sign shit like the patriot act.

  • wats wit all the constitution shit all i care about is skiers are fags and snowboarders rule

  • i take it you're relatively new to snowboarding, and you've never skied. just a guess, i could be completely wrong.

  • i skied once.... and it was lame... but you go ahead, have fun in your spandex... we wont be laughing too hard from the park

  • i'm a snowboarder too, and i love it as much as life itself. i just think it's important to keep an open mind.
