Okay... Some of us listen to music when we ski, and others just belt out a tune or two cruising down the mountain.. To me, as awful as it sounds, the song that gets me going in the morning when I get off the lift and take the first run of the day is....

"Just Like Paradise" from David Lee Roth.



I know not the best song in the world, well actually pretty much bottom barrel... But there is something about this song, the snow and skiing that just get's me going. What about everyone else?

Eve 6 - Anytime

Probably because it's featured at the begining of Out Cold, with some incredible snowboarding footage and fantastic terrain. Nothing gets me ready for skiing like it.
