there may another thread covering this subject? , but it seems like a cool subject to ponder.
So, I was skiing some mediocre slopes yesterday, guiding my friend around snowbird. Fresh Pow! and some mind enhancements got me charging turns pretty hard for the low snowpack. It hit me that I finally have progressed my skill to be able to pretty much ski fluidly anything within reason that my desire and skill allows.
it made me think about the transition we all experienced to get to that off trail skier we want to be I know the guys n gals here that grew up skiing have quite a different experience than us who learned as adults.
Skiers and Boarders who learned as adults have a much bigger risk reward balance.
My transition seems like it was about 12 years after I finally learned how to lean properly on my shins...it took than long to learn how to do it in most situations I find myself in at our super sick resorts we love here:)
I am sure we all have great, fun stories about our experiences along the way!
