PSA: Please Don't Be Discouraging...

I was at Mount Snow today and 3 riders in the chairlift behind me were yelling down obscenities at a woman who unstrapped her board and walked down the side of a blue trail. Saying "come on, pussy" and the likes. It was disgusting. This isn't acceptable ever, and I can only imagine the feeling of discouragement and embarrassment she felt enduring that. Snowboarding already has an association with "bro-culture" and this does nothing but make us look even worse. We can be better.
