re: #383 teleskiguy

It’s not for everybody. Heights are a big issue, a lot of times your’re pretty high off the ground on chairlifts. And it’s a sport where speed is your friend. Speed as in forward movement *and* reaction time. All that said, it is the funnest funnest funnest thing that I know of. There is no better fun.

I managed to deal with the chairlift (at the time, my biggest hangup). I have decent reaction time, if I could just afford to get on the slopes to get some practice and get my confidence up. I would never be a world-class skier, but I would have fun on the slopes if I spent some time there.
