Where should I start ...
It appears as if the skiing term Gaper has several possible meanings. Some aren't so nice. I like the traditional meaning ... A skier who stops to enjoys the view from the top of the mountain trail.
Others have modified the meaning ... A beginning skier who has no clue as to what they are doing. Also, using the term to describe ... A tourist skier who wears neon colored ski jacket and ski pants. But, the worst has to be from this statement .... I couldn't ski fast because I was too busy dodging all the gapers.
In Colorado, the gaper refers to the gap between their hat and googles; also known as a gaper-gap.
Well, as far as I am concerned the tradional old school meaning suits me fine.
