Sorry America, these are all true…

The mountains are actual mountains…

 

…rather than hills

 

They don’t need ‘gnarly’ run names to make them seem steeper…

This run in Vermont is called “The Jaws of Death”…

 

…if anything it’s the opposite.

This 50-degree face in France is called “Bellecote”

 

Europeans do proper cheese…

 

…instead of plastic

 

And they serve beer like this…

 

…instead of this.

 

If you know what you’re doing you can ride where you like…

 

…cos it’s all just “off piste”, there’s no of “out of bounds”

 

You can usually walk to the lifts easily…

 

…without having to destroy the planet

 

You don’t have to worry about getting sued…

 

…cos they don’t give a shit about health and safety.

 

No one will bat an eyelid at your questionable fashion choices…

 

In fact, you’ll fit right in.

 

Europeans invented après…

 

…and you don’t need to be over 21.

 

Not that this is always a good thing…

 

…but at least everyone can get involved.

 

Of course, you may not speak the local language…

 

…but that’s why they invented Schnapps right?
