Actually, the more I think about it, even if that's not what Jan meant then it is still very true and relevant to skiing.

Freezy you win the teachers-pet point :)

The phrase I actually had in mind was:

Failing
To
Prepare
Is
Preparing
To
Fail

But yours kinda works to eh?

But who's gonna quibble ...

Actually Pavel probably as he tried SO hard but then also kinda failed, Oh well, there's always next time ;)

Happy phrasing :)

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
You may delay, but time will not.

How about, For That Perfect Initial Pose, Turn Faster.

One that I love and yes works is

Less is more speed.

Often we work too hard to go faster. If you just believe in your skis and let them "take the line" you just might go faster.

I see the same with recreational skiers. Doing so much physical effort, when less would allow the skis to find their "natural" turn radius.
