Hey guy's I'm new here and I wanted to chew the gristle 'bout getting back on my ski's. I started skiing in late Januray of this year. My first runs went great and skiing became a super fun new love. On the last run I pushed myself to do one more run down a steep slope and ripped up my knee. The next time I went out on a kaputt knee and skied where and when ever I could find deep snow. Totally into it! Then I decided while I was on a trip to Dresden Germany I just HAD to stop off at Hintertux and go glacier skiing. The views were like nothing I've ever seen. Well I made some really poor decisions and wound up falling and skidding about 700m down the glacier side and having to get flown out becuase I wrecked big :twisted: . I'm looking for advice On one side of the fence I just got my ski's repaired and ordered new eq. that got destroyed and I'm going to be taking private lessons at a local resort but I'm a little shaky about getting back on for fear I'm gonna wreck again.
*I'd like to know what do you do if you find yourself in a situation like: 1. Your hypothermic, have a cracked plevis, two cracked knees and have no skin on your buns,back, arms and your hands are so chewed up you can't grab onto the ice. and to boot there isn't a dang soul to be found 2. You find yourself on the side of a glacier with clouds and mist moving in and you can't see in any direction 3. Your legs cramp up in your boots and it's too painful to walk on them Thanks dudes you rock \m/ |
