How long have you been skiing?

Spencer · 02-02-05, 07:00 PM

I've been skiing since I was about 3 years old. I'm now 21, so that's 18 years.

It's probably the one thing I've done for the longest time besides eat and sleep.

I've skied since I was 5 for a few years. Than I stopped and have never done since. Now I am thinking of getting back at it.

FF - You should really try snow skiing, it's great fun and doesn't get you too wet

Water skiing looks like fun, I might give it a shot!

WLW - You should get back at it, I know a guy who started when he was about 5 but continued on and now he is 21 .. He's now amazing at skiing.

I am 33 and went on my first skiing holiday in January of this year. Prior to that I'd only been skiing for about an hour once on a dry ski slope when I was in my teens. As you can imagine, I'm pretty bad... but it's fun all the same!

You really shouldn't try dry slopes *ouch*, they could put you off skiing for life if you were to fall badly

altyfc · 05-04-05, 09:36 AM

Yeah, you're right. I was put off and had serious reservations about this latest trip. I'm glad I overcame those, though, because I enjoyed it.

That's good to hear

So when's the next trip?

altyfc · 27-04-05, 04:19 PM

LOL... I'm not sure when the next skiing trip will be.

I prefer more restful holidays. I'm off to Barcelona for a break in June.

I'm also going to Toronto in September (but that won't be restful... I'm doing a marathon there).

I have been ski-ing for about 5 or 6 years now, started when I was 9/10

I actually just got into skiing for about a year now since my friend got me into it. There is no feeling quite like the one you get when you are skiing down a mountain.

utbeastie · 03-09-05, 02:28 AM

I have been skiing since I was 15. I try to get out about once or twice a year.

drewman03 · 25-09-05, 06:56 AM

I have only been twice, but i hope to go a lot more.
