    Eastern Powder days

    I always felt (even on my salomon pro link 208's) that if you sat back, raised your tips up you can ski just fine in the powder.

    #$%$%^$ "Q" Bukre....what do I do?

    serious "Q"uestion, is the Quiros family from "Q'uebec? Its the only logical idea I can come up with that would make him insist on using this "Q" name......a play on words if you will, as if you say it fast, "QBurke" could sound like "Quebec" In which case it would make a whole lot more sense...

    New Hampshire v Vermont

    clearly you dont have kids, if you think a private plane ride beats them. The hardest yet best thing Ive ever done in my life is raising my kids...... Anyway, I vote NH.

    Killington 2012-01-29 -- Taking the girl I love skiing for her first time

    sort of. Obviously the best in the world need to keep "honing their craft" so to speak, In order to stay on top, right? Also, the people who have not very much athletic ability would probably also benefit from lessons. IMO there are plenty of others who are perfectly happy with their...

    Killington 2012-01-29 -- Taking the girl I love skiing for her first time

    why you would assume that, other than to be a doosh...I have no idea. Since you're calling me out, I must defend myself in saying I ski quite well. I dont think youd watch me ski & say "he looks bad" thats for sure. But why would you even care? If I looked awful and was still having a...

    bleh. Of course they get coached and take lessons. Theyre elite, the best of the best. 99% of people skiing and golfing arent trying to be tiger woods or lindsey vonn...theyre out there for fun.

    Killington 2012-01-29 -- Taking the girl I love skiing for her first time

    I hear what your saying. I just didnt find it that hard to learn. I assumed most people could do it with some patience & practice, without taking lessons. Maybe people do learn quicker with lessons. I dont know. It still doesnt change my mind....part of the fun of skiing for me was...

    Killington 2012-01-29 -- Taking the girl I love skiing for her first time

    Im confused by this. What do you mean I have no clue with whats going on with others? The people on the mountain? the people I taught? huh? I was joking at the people who take lessons.....I dunno, the 20-30 people I know who ski very well and ski all the time.....none of them have ever...

    Killington 2012-01-29 -- Taking the girl I love skiing for her first time

    Love the rolleyes....reminds me of when I was 12. IMO if your not good or wanna get better at something, I would ask a friend whos good at it, before I go pay a complete stranger to do it...to each is own I guess.

    ahhhh someone else who gets it, thank you. Now if you told me that you were going to give me a million dollars to solve some basic algebra or geometry problems....I couldnt do it. Agreed, we all have things we're good at, and things we're not.

    Killington 2012-01-29 -- Taking the girl I love skiing for her first time

    Like i said.....i dont think everyone needs to take lessons to learn how to ski. Some people may.....but i didnt. Nor did my wife or friends. I didnt need lessons to learn how to play golf either....and im a pretty fine golfer. These sports came naturally to me....as they also do to other...
