I'm just rollin with the punches,AJ.

As for xscape, my ego was not too big last time i was there. Must have bailed at least 8 times tring to jump!! All the bar area were watching and i think one of the freestyle pro's may have got my worst attempt at clearing the gap on camera, keep watching "you've been framed!" still have a bruise on my leg from 4 weeks ago when i landed on my ski!!

It can only get better!!

Or a womans mouth? :-D

so i take it an all expenses paid trip to chamonix next season is out of the question, Admin?

hint hint!!

practice practice practice!!

try doing the lower slope consecutively getting faster each time. once speed lower down is achieved move to a higher point and start slowly again. At beginner level it's all quite daunting and what isn't too advanced can seem very difficult.

I remember doing 100m sprints for my long distance running training and was told by a much more experienced runner than myself, "if you can't run fast over short distances, how will you run fast over long distances?"

This is very apparent in respect of what your daughter is experiencing.

All the best

pav, there's a 6th for the list,

women always find a bad moment lower the tone!

Ha Ha, AJ, your 5 male flaws i suppose are quite accurate but in a mans mind, these constitute a great holiday.

Thanks for the feedback, the next project would be to film an all mens ski hol and an all womens, compare and contrast the 2 psychologically and physically (we could get into who the better skiers are too but we already know its the men )) and produce a doccumentary for channel 4 - I use C4 as an example because the quality of C4 programming is relatively low and they'd probably give us a slot.

I volunteer myself and my camera to go on the lads hol. Pav keep hold of the samsung it may yet come in handy! (BTW if i hadn't spent so much on skiing this year already i'd have loved to take the sports cam off your hands)

Straight legs from jan was the crucial bit of info, the aspect i focussed on most anyway. Keeping weight downhill too! if you put half hour solid into it you'll get it. It's not really that difficult, when you know how. )

Cheers!

Having seen pavs toast holder, i would bet skis that cook wouldn't be too far awy!! ( a little project for you pav)

Your selection comparrison is awesome dshenberger!

only 30% of women but i'm in at least one of the above situations 100% of the time!! - not just when skiing!

It would be interesting to see if a female forum member could find 5 things wrong in a man on a ski holiday? I doubt it!

i was about 19 went to livingo with my brother and the old man, since went to andorra x 2, fernie and am off to les carroz very soon!!

feel that i've got loads of catching up to do!!
