What is a Medical Pegboard and how hard is it to learn?

Is it hard to learn how to ski? How long did it take you to learn? What are the basic tips to know when skiing

  • Answer:

    Skiing was one of the hardest things I learned and it took me several years to get really good at it. However, I enjoyed the process, and that's what skiing is all about for me. Trying to get better and better, and its a continuous process. Every year, I look back at how much I have improved, and it dawns on me that whet I used to consider "good skiing" is a piece of cake for me now. And the end result, when you get good and can go carve some turns on your own, is TOTALLY worth it. I say go out there and do it. Your instructor will tell you all you need to know about skiing, don't try to ski without getting lessons.

You will never finish learning how to ski, I have been ski since I was 2 but have taught many others to ski. Some people find it easy enough to ski, some not. If you have good balance don't worry. Start with a lesson, don't let your skis cross over, start off slow, don't go where you cant get back out or where there is a fair chance of hurting yourself. Skiing is not just being able to slide down the hill, it is being able to turn, be in control but still enjoy yourself. Hope you have fun.

To learn to ski takes a couple of lessons AND a lifetime. It all depends on the standard you want to achieve.

Actually I found skiing to be a bit easier to learn than snowboarding. I think it's because you have both legs to rely on. It's not that hard and if you're reasonably athletic you should be able to get down the bunny slope on your very first day without falling. Just be sure to stay in your wedge and check your speed to keep from going out of control. You'll fall a lot and it'll feel awkward at first but it's all about programming your muscle memory and training your body to move a certain way. If you stick with it, you'll be carving in no time.

You'll fall a lot at first, but just take a few lessons - listen to what your instructor says, and just keep persevering. After a short while you'll wonder why you ever found it difficult.

Skiing is very straight forward actually. 10x easier then snowboarding. I do both and i enjoy skiing much more. Tips for Skiing: Keep your knees bent Dont cross your skis or point them in people like that are idiots. Dont go on a difficult run untill your ready. Take it slow and get used to skiing and become comfortable with it first. It took me 2 trips to learn how to ski enough, practice makes perfect. Dont get nervous when looking at a hill, honestly the hardest part for me was getting off the chair lift :P

It's not at all hard to learn to ski if you're in decent shape. You don't have to be an athlete, just able to stand and balance. By the end of one lesson you should be up and going and feeling confident on the smaller slopes. I think the most basic lesson of skiing is to learn at your own speed. Don't try the hill that scares you to be with your friends. Save that for the next trip.
