Cross your skies to stop and keep parallel to speed up.

Turning is all about shifting your weight.

Fist time I went with my ex thought I was stuntin doing that speed slalom left /right ish

So by the end of the day we ride the chair lift to the top mountain and I see this sign posted black diamond am like .
Until I look down and the slope is like 90 degrees

Now I should mention that the slalom style is highly effective in building lots of speed. By the time you get to the end of the mountain you are flying. My girl meanwhile was using the pizza style which is what little kids start with so stop is no problem.

Me: how bad could it be ?

Black diamond:

long story short I fell, lost a glove almost got ran over a couple of times. It took me 35 minutes to get down.

You gotta be careful people actually do die sking especially in those black diamonds. It's not unheard to go over a cliff.

the first couple of times skiing in the season make muscles you didn't know you had hurt.

[LezJepzin]

Good for you

Haven't been in 11 years despite being two hours from the slopes .

But when I did, I had a blast

 

[Brosef]

Nah Glen Eden in Milton.

Wanted to go to Blue mountain but didn't want to drive the two hours there and back while Glen Eden is like 40 minutes


Lol to stop I just fell backwards

I have a season pass at Glen Eden.

lotta nikkas up north in the states ski too. At least in PA

 

[Idaeo]

Only ever been snowboarding. Never tried skiing. It's one of the most freeing, exhilarating activities to do.

Not being able to stop immediately can fukk with you though. You have to learn how to let the terrain guide you.
