A kook is someone who only skis or snowboards on the weekend. Usually at
Steven's Pass.
Kooks leave
Seattle at "the crack of
dawn" aka 7:30 a.m. and when they arrive to a full parking lot, they'll just park on the freeway. Kooks also like to bring their expensive
dogs to the resort and lock them in the
car all
day. Then, the kooks will proceed to go around and yell at everyone, especially employees, like they own the place.
A kook may be a relatively decent rider, but they will never really progress past a certain kooky point. This is due to never fully committing to more than one or two days a week to the sport. They spend much more
time thinking about the mountain and shopping for gear online while they waste away at their desk jobs.
Kooks hate resort employees. Kooks think they're probably better skiers than the employees anyway, due to being smarter in general and more successful. And like, way richer. Which leads me to my final kooky point.
Looks can be deceiving. Kooks can often afford the best gear, since they have lots of down
time at their boring desk jobs and also more
money. They spend a lot of
time researching and buying all the best gear online. While paying full price like the Kooks that they are.
Everyone has a little bit of kook in them but some more so than others.
