Oh...I didn't know that ski changed that much from US to Europe, I thought that as a beginner skier, it would be exactly the same learning it here or there.
Is one more right than the other? How do you base that difference? Or is just that old thing of the europeans saying that us, is rubish and vice versa? |

I saw this last night on you tube and I found it very good, of course this is not meant to teach you how to ski, for that you have schools but at least it gives you a bunch of useful information.

I fit in the category “never put a foot in a ski boot”. However soon after I’ve booked my FIRST skiing holiday I started posting here, one of the things that made me feel very welcome was the fact that everyone in here was pretty friendly and informative. I’ve exchanged PM’s with AJ and Tony and both have been immensely patient with my newbie questions that I’m ashamed to ask in the open forum, (I can come up with pretty silly stuff…believe me). It’s true that sometimes you get a hard answer but if you are chatting to your friends and someone gives you an harsh answer you try to put your point across don’t just walk away. I don’t hang around in any other ski related forum, but I’m a long term poster in a bass forum, and sometimes we disagree, there’s nothing wrong with that, as long as everyone respects others opinions, it’s all good. The ones that don’t contribute to the forum in a valuable way, you should just ignore and they eventually go away.
