What did you forget your first day out this season?

[Jersey Skier]

I just remembered I didn't update the lenses in my goggles when I got a new prescription this Summer. Going to be a fun first day on Wednesday.

Ski socks. I forgot the ski socks.

to charge my Hotronics.

 

[LiquidFeet]

Oh yeah. I forgot to charge the Hotronics too.
Evidently you are supposed to charge them for 24-36 hours at the start of the season...

I was ready to turn the ignition in the car when I realized the poles were still hanging in the closet... So I went back inside and grabbed them. Other then that I remembered everything.

I'm kind of OCD before the night of skiing and so I didn't forget anything. Well I did forget to put my ski lock in my jacket so that's something.

I forgot poles. Not MY poles... I was on a business trip, packed boots and slope appropriate clothing, rented skis at shop before the mountain but in my excitement to get out on snow after 19 months I didn't take poles. The rental shop attendant at Killington was fine letting me borrow a pair.

I've forgotten poles before and take it as a sign that I'm not meant to have poles that day so I go without.

^^^renting poles is like $5 or less.

I usually forget to scrape the wax. All good after about half a run.

I was pretty good this year. Only forgot the rag I keep in boot bag to wiped down boots and skis at end of day.

If it's one of my regular mountains they are usually cool with loaning a pair. That said I actually don't mind skiing without poles and do it on purpose once a month or so. If I forget my poles I usually take that as a sign that that's my day without poles.

Surprisingly, the only thing I forgot was my lunch. But Wachusett has a decent bowl of chili, so no biggie.

 

[James]

I forget...
It was something.
This week I forgot my pass. Well, actually I grabbed what I though was my pass, but was a diamond stone on a cord. I got all the way to skiing sure that I had it. I can tell you diamond stones don't work as an rfid ski pass. The picture is wrong, it's all black.

How to ski for the first couple of runs.......................it did get better.................happens every year!

 

[slowrider]

i forgot to pay my bar tab.

 

[TimF]

The morning went fine but then I forgot my legs after lunch. They must have been out looking for the gym!

 

[David Chaus]

I remembered to take everything with me, but I lost my phone during the day. I checked with Guest Services 3 times, no luck.
When I got home, I logged on to “Find My” and it was pinging at Guest Services, so I figured it was turned in.

Went back the next day, picked up phone. Lost my sunglasses, though.

 

[pchewn]

I forgot to do my ski exercises for the last 6 months....

 

[SBrown]

I forgot my boots. The first TWO times I went. Luckily I remembered soon enough to turn around and not waste too much time, but ... really??

 

[slowrider]

I forgot to fall. Oh well maybe next time.
