They're overalls and look like someone you would wear to work on mechanics with.

I've been snowboarding for almost 7 years now. I can hold my own on some diamond runs. But one day I would like to try skiing (maybe this weekend at Tahoe). I was wondering if anyone thinks I should still get a paid lesson, or would I be able to learn on my own? I think I can learn on my own, but maybe just some verbal tips is all I need...

Anja Paerson has won the women's downhill in Are, Sweden in 1.26.89, would the men be any faster, if so, by how much?

Could men and women compete directly against each other?

Let me put a qualifier in first thing.

I ONLY WEAR SKIRTS! So please do not reccomend pants.

I am looking for ideas on maybe what types of materials and other things you wear?

Special gloves? boots? or just regular shoes? Thermals?


Thanks for your help!

I'm in my school's ski club and i just got my black diamond sticker, and i was thinking about hitting the terrain park, but im not so sure about the jumps. How do you go off of ramps? Does the ramp just launch you in the air, or do you have do maybe "pop" yourself up at the edge of the jump? Im not thinking about doing 360s at the start, maybe just taking it easy the first couple of times and then try to do a grab trick.

Im going skiing for the first time in a couple of weeks with a group of friends. We're renting a bus and goin down for the day. This is my first time going and was looking for some help. Im in 10th grade by the way, if that makes a difference.

I was just looking for some advise, What to wear, What to bring, what to do? anything would be helpful.

Also one of my friends going is the girl i like. and also my best friend likes her as well. Is there anything i should do besides like trying to spend alot of time with her, that i should do to sort of give me the edge over my friend.

Once again anything would be great. Thanks!!

In January I was Skiing in Italy and broke my lower leg in 4 places. Apparently the break was caused by my bone twisting rather than the landing itself.

I assume that my foot was stopped from turning by the ski and my body twisted as I fell. Something had to give and it was my leg. At the time I was on a not very steep slope and not going that fast, the snow was a bit patchy and I think my ski hit some earth and I tipped forwards and to one side.

Do you have any tips for how to avoid breaking a leg, sensible ones only please. My confidence is really shattered and I don't know if I'll ever ski again. Maybe I could have avoided it by the way I fell and how I should have reacted as I fell. If I go again I intend to take some lessons, but doubt whether I will go again. I am 43 and not as flexible as the younger skiers. I have only 3 or 4 weeks experience skiing of which the first week I went to ski school.

I have recently started snowboarding but that seems more dangerous.

Ive only been skiing twice in my life, but I picked it up very quickly.... The last time I went was last year, and I learned how to parralel ski. I havent perfected it yet, so I was wondering if its a good idea to just hit the slopes, and try and perfect that skill before I take another lesson... any opinions?

I'm off snowboarding on Friday to France. I have booked my 6 year old son in for skiing lessons with the ESF (all day lessons). I am now having second thoughts about it. I think he will get all sore and achey and tired and want to give up. Does anyone have experience of taking a child this young skiing? I have seen loads of other kids ski that are younger than 6, but worry about the stamina of my own. Please help! Do you think he will be ok? I know you don't know him, so no smart answers please.

I bought new ski boots last year and was clearly not given the advice I should have. I have size 10 1/2 to 11 feet and I was sold size 29.5 boots. They fit very well around my calves, however I seem to have to much space to move my feet around inside the boot. Would buying an insert help? I am a fairly aggressive skier, have Rossi Salto entry level boots (intend to buy new ones in a year or two, but need a fix to get me through until then). The buckles around the foot are very easy to lock (hardly any pressure needed) and I basically need to get a tighter fit around that area. I am finding it hard to transfer control to my ski's when I get more aggressive.

When I go Skiing my hands always get very cold. I have pretty good gloves, and my feet, legs, and upper body are always warm. I am going Skiing Friday and there is supposed to be a high of 2. What should I do to keep my hands warm?
