Skis: How do you carry yours??!

Aaah, this is brilliant! I'm guilty of quite a few of these, mainly the girlfriend, the bazooka and occasionally the fish-hook (except that one drives the OH ballistic, lol!)

How do you carry yours?!

Few new ones in there to give a try, not seen the one where they balance it on the tips of the poles before though.

The hobo? Yeah I'm intrigued by that one! I like the look of the Oklahoma Suitcase too. Gonna try a bit of experimentation tomorrow ;-)

Have done the Oklahoma Suitcase, and it's handy for when you've a longer trek to do, just takes a bit of setting up with the poles.

They forgot the "Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad"

As in "Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad, I'm too tired to carry my skis and my feet hurt and there's a nice cafe we can sit in while you carry all our skis back to the hotel and then come back to us"

Lol Zagmund- I think that one's called the Suckerrrr, lol! For us it is a chain reaction Suckerrrr: child carries all the poles, I carry child skis, OH carries both pairs of adult skis. So far no-one seems to have noticed that I have completely lucked out, hahaha!! ;-)

The Daaaaaaaad is probably a similar one to the Boyfriend, but with an extra pair of skis.

Was doing the "Daaaaad", once and my daughter wandered off. So there I am with two pairs of skis, one large and one small, when someone (beginner?) asked me why I needed two pairs?
I replied that I always brought a spare pair, in case I got a puncture in one. He walked away, scratching his head!!

Yep, it sure it. It's a function of the boyfriend plus time.

I don't think they covered it in their video, but there's also the "daisy cutter", typically executed by children and, err, non-males. Laurel & Hardy (and most slapstick routines) had a variation on it with a ladder. If you haven't spotted it by now, it involves swinging around in a confined space oblivious to the people behind you madly ducking out of the way.

Oh I've seen quite a few males pull that move Zagmund!! It's also closely correlated with Jaegermeister consumption
