The snowboarder had told the skier that "to get tits-deep pow shots you just need to be on your edges," which so offended the skier that he shoved the snowboarder off the lift 20-25 feet off the ground.
Is it reasonable to expect people to refrain from violence if a snowboarder tells them how to get tits-deep pow shots? There's only so much a man can take!
Guess he got tits-deep in pow going head first.
I think I need the conversation on the chairlift translated into English.

Yeah, wtf is he saying? Maybe that's what the skier was thinking when he pushed him off.
A lot of things wrong with this story.
1) The snowboarder didn't report it until the end of the day.
2) It happened at the top of the lift yet no one saw it.
3) The snowboarder has a photographic memory, describing in detail what the guy was wearing hours after the alleged event happen.
You've been trolled.

I prefer to ski in peace, so I hate chairlift chatter from strangers, too, especially stoned, obnoxious snowboarders (although that's redundant).

The lift operator saw it, and stopped the rotation.
I hope they find the guy and lock him away for awhile.

The article didn't say the lift operator saw it only that the lift stopped momentarily. That happens often on a lift because of people having difficulty getting off, especially old people and children.
The one who said the lift was stopped was the stoned snowboarder, who still hasn't filed a police report. He won't because if he does he'll be arrested for the hoax. His story doesn't add up.
That was no man, brah!

The "perp" is described as a white male in his 20s or 30s wearing a goggles and helmet. In Aspen. Skiing. Good luck with that-
People still snowboard?

As to be expected from a humorless introvert.

http://www.aspentimes.com/news/20233526-113/aspen-area-man-may-be-responsible-for-chairlift-pushIf you liked "tits-deep pow shots," how about this one? "Of course I have cocaine up my nose. It's Aspen."
Aspen police caught a 34-year-old Snowmass Village man chopping lines of cocaine on a stone bench across from Little Annie’s Eating House early Monday, according to court documents.
The officers heard the chopping sound during a routine downtown patrol at about 2:10 a.m., according to an arrest warrant. When they contacted Eliphalet Ford, officers saw two credit cards on the bench with a white, powdery substance on them and a line of white powder near Ford’s leg, the warrant states. Ford brushed the line of powder on to the ground when officers asked about it.
One of the officers then shined a flashlight up Ford’s nose, saw a white substance in his nostrils and said he believed it was cocaine, the warrant states.
“Of course I have cocaine up my nose,†the officer said Ford told him. “It’s Aspen.â€
Don't people jump out of helicopters onto the mountain to begin ski/snowboard runs? How is dropping from a lift any different from that?

Pretty funny story................but only because he was lucky and didn't get hurt. Its not uncommon for there to be non skiable terrain below the lift track up a mountain, could have easily been a huge rock he fell on top of instead of some soft snow. The skied that did it, if found, should spend time in the slammer.
