Winter Sports

I got them as a gift four years ago and I wasn't in to skiing but I want to go this year. Is there anything i need to do to get them ready for the winter? They have been sitting in a bag and they do have a little rust on the edges.Thanks!

anyone know a good song for a skating routine, where a girl starts off as a stiff mannequin doll, then comes to life and skates, then ends the song again as the mannequin?

I was just looking at equipment (on the Internet ) , and I was wondering if skis come with ski poles and if a hydration pack is necessary. I know that the boots are. Please answer all questions. Best answer=10 points!

I'm going to go skiing in about 3 months or so...
And yeah, I'm going snowboarding for the first time. Can you give me some advice that will keep me more on my feet and less on my butt?

And anything else will be appreciated too!

people think that im rich because i ski, but im really not, im one of the poorest kids in my school! the only reason y we can afford it ski is because my grandparents have a lot of skis and we use thoes, and then they have a house in colorado, and they get a bunch of free lift tickets because they work in this soup place at the top of the mountain.

so of i told you that i ski would you automatically think that im rich?

I was told that there is a place in the netherlands where I can ride a train to go skiing and then ski back and it will take all day as you stop at villages along the way. I would like to know if anyone can give me a link or a name to research this further

I have snowboarded for 3 years and I am not a fan of regular skiing. I went to a big mountain like killington and I didn't do so well there on the snowboard but one of my friends had ski blades. That looked a lot easier to do. I am not gonna go out and buy a pair I might rent some but I was wondering if it is worth the try or just to stick to snowboarding. I am just looking for some opinions. Thanks

I'm a freestyle skater and have been considering switching to ice dance because of injuries I get from jumping. I recently got another concussion (I've had at least 5 so far on the ice) and I have also torn ligaments in my ankle. I'm not quite 16 and I was wondering if it would be too late for me to switch over to ice dance and still be competitive in it. I cannot give up skating all together because I love it too much, but the jumps are really hard on my body. Competiting is my favorite part of skating and if I am too old to start ice dance and be competitive in it, I'm not sure if I'll make the switch. I have been taking ice dance lessons for the past year or so and have passed all of my pre bronze compulsory dance tests and one bronze compulsory dance test. I will also be testing another dance soon. I have passed my Juvenile moves test and will be taking the Intermediate test in less than a month. I want your honest opinions, do I have any chance at being a competitive ice daner?
