Death, taxes, and skiers having fights with snowboarders in the mountains are life\u2019s only inevitabilities<\/h2>\n

If there\u2019s one thing that the long and bloody history of skiers fighting snowboarders has shown us, it\u2019s that we human beings are inherently programmed to destroy ourselves. There\u2019s just too many differing ideologies out there, too many opinionated people with contrasting belief systems, for us to ever share the same ball of space rock without eventually going to war over something.<\/p>\n

We like to think we\u2019ve evolved, become more civilised, but deep down we\u2019re still cavemen looking to protect what\u2019s ours by any means necessary \u2013 even if it results in severe verbal disputes and weird, almost ballet-like, on-snow wrestling.<\/p>\n

Snowboarders mouthing off at skiers. Skiers mouthing off at snowboarders. It\u2019s a tale as old as time. All we can do is flick through the pages of history, tell ourselves we\u2019ve all learned something while preaching \u201cpeace, love, and understanding\u201d, and inevitably fall back into our old ways before teatime.<\/p>\n
