What's your biggest strength on the hill?

[hammer]

Thought we needed a counter to the "what's your biggest weakness" thread...I'm sure that there are a lot of very good skiers/riders here...

Keep egos in check but don't be afraid to mention a strength.

 

[Greg]

Probably endurance, once we get to mid season. I can usually keep the energy level high for most of the day.

 

[bvibert]

I was going to say that I'm really good at riding the chair, but then I remembered when I fell off at Hunter last year, so I guess I'm not good at that either.

 

[snoseek]

An ability to not care about my weakness....

:lol: Wish I had seen that! :lol:

Strength? Oh geez, I don't know... I can get down the bunny slope really well. I know how to make a dramatic fall and hurt myself in grand style. At least I keep trying...

 

[billski]

Good judgment.
Knowing when to stop/slow down/call it a day.

 

[billski]

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place.

I wish that were true, but for some unfortunate folks I know, it's not.

I think it's a good reminder for most of us, though. A "this, too, shall pass" sort of thing.

 

[highpeaksdrifter]

I'm fun to ski with and drink with after.:beer:

 

[Trekchick]

Flexibility.

 

[Beetlenut]

Getting off the chair lift! I get off real good! :-D

 

[Moe Ghoul]

The pungency of my 4 day in a row worn underarmor..chicks dig it.

 

[prisnah]

hucking my meat, not thinking about shit too much, narrowly avoiding major injury, getting things lit in the wind. I do alright in the deep stuff too.

 

[deadheadskier]

probably versatility

I wouldn't say I'm overly great at any one discipline, but I can ski just about anything.

 

[Eski]

without a doubt, my determination to pick myself back up once I've gone down and carry on with a smile

 

[eastcoastpowderhound]

efficiency and versatility...I use as little effort as necessary for each turn

so that explains why you always get chairs to yourself ! uke:

I thought it was my groping, but now that you mentioned it.......

 

[Warp Daddy]

endurance and durability

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Skiing variable/challenging conditions..like breakable crust, refrozen crud, thick mashed tators and death cookies. Bad conditions don't faze me..
