* DefiedTrope: The main plot of the episode (the homage to Eighties extreme sports comedies) notably has Stan trying repeatedly to get out of it. He makes clear that he doesn't cares about anybody else's plights, points out that he's a lousy skier and after the first time he and Tad race he even says, "You are the better skier, this is all the proof you needed, ''leave me the hell alone''." The only reason Stan decides to agree to race at the climax is because Tad is just ''that'' relentless of a bully.

* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Tad very easily had won Heather's hand and upstaged Stan in the first race, and his rich father was set to tear down the Aspen Youth Center with impunity (all of which Stan didn't care about), but because he continued to harass Stan for no reason and then pulled a DickDastardlyStopsToCheat instead of easily skiing to victory in the second race, he ends up losing everything. Completed self-inflicted faceplant on his part.

* DickDastardlyStopsToCheat: PlayedForLaughs. Tad is an excellent skier, and Stan is about as good as you'd expect a nine-year-old who's been skiing for a single weekend to be (that is, he isn't). So naturally, after he gets a commanding lead in the race to the bottom, Tad stops multiple times to try and hinder Stan, including cutting down a tree with a handsaw, throwing sand in the path, and releasing a bunch of hamsters. Stan's top speed is already so slow that all he does is walk over the obstacles, barely being slowed down at all. Had Tad tried to ski fairly (as he did the first time), it would have been an easy blowout.
