When a skier or snowboarder eats it on the slopes and loses all of their gear. If a skier loses his skies, poles, hat, goggles, and anything else, shout "YARD SALE" from the ski lift above him.
"While the skier denied that he lost his skis and poles in the fall, everyone that saw it knew that in reality his fall was a classic yard sale"

Yard Sale
An old-school lacrosse term for when a player or his stick is checked hard enough to make him drop it. Not many schools still follow with the tradition belowmentioned:
a sale in one's yard, but not usually of one's yard.
for people in the UK, it is similar to a boot sale, but held in a private person's yard. See also Garage sale
One person's trash is another person's treasure, which accounts for the popularity of yard sales.

Yard Sale
When you are skiing down a mountain and all of your gear flies
in every direction after a big wipe out or small avalanche. It sux trying to gather it all together afterwards.
Dude, I was flying down the pass yesterday when a noobie cut me off and I bit the slope at like 100 mph. My gear was a total yard sale. I lost my snoopy beannie.
