Where did you go skiing that it required training, licenses or insurance? I’ve never heard of any of that being required.

In fact I’ve spoken to insurance agents that specifically will not insure heavy skiers because of their increased risk.

    The pass pays for ski patrol. And an ambulance ride. Whether you use it or not. You know, like insurance.

    You also lose your pass if you behave dangerously. You know, like a license.

    And ski school isn’t strictly necessary, but struggle to get on the lift without it and cause enough accidents and your pass will get pulled.

    You know, like a license.

    You can ski on private land without a pass. You know, like off road vehicles.

    If you don’t see any similarities, it isn’t because I haven’t sufficiently explained them to you.
