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

ahahahahahahaha..that's very good conditions for the Poconos..

Another strength on the hill is keeping track of my runs for a mad steezy TR and an update to my vertical foot database. Most of my ski buddies who keep track of runs count on me to keep track of their runs as well..

Hard to pick just one.

Adaptability to conditions, balance, coordination, ability to go into survival mode as needed, being able to "see" ahead.

Perhaps my biggest strength is just being able to trust my instincts and technique and turn my brain off and just find my line without really thinking about it.
