Completely Opinionated - ifyouski polls
Last time we asked...
Winter sports - still elitist or accessible to all?
An interesting debate sparked up over this one, and the current feeling among ifyouskiers is that winter sports are more accessible than elitist. This poll will be up for another few days, so please feel free to have your say on this contentious issue!
| Elitist |
|
51 votes (43%) |
| Accessible |
|
68 votes (57%) |
Here are a couple of choice comments:
"If winter sports were accessible to all then presumably the slopes would be a fevered mass of humanity with nowhere to move, 12-hour lift queues and thousands of people being trampled to death. In fact, I think there would be so many people that the snow would never hit the ground."
Submitted by : Bob Monkchalet
"Skiing will shed its image of elitism when every man, woman and child has a pair of skis, when the mountains fill with people of all races (slalom or downhill) sharing chairlifts and enjoying the pistes together..."
Submitted by : The Committee for Equality and Freedom in the Ski World
