BB you could bring him one back from the IOW plenty down there to choose from & not going anywhere soon. :(

The boarding is a rebellion to challenge your authority & is common among teens, if you boarded he or she would ski -)

Your descriptions seems to fit mainly boarders :evil:

The info on here said her neck was broken, I don't class that as a head injury & wearing a helmet will not prevent your neck from breaking. I'm saying this as you seem to consider the wearing or not of a helmet as a contributing factor, which IMO is not relevant.

Maybe Icey can help you with some diet suggestions :twisted:

Interesting point on sand work, running in the water at the beach edge is terrific. Repetition sand hill work is also good for basic strength, without unduly stressing the joints. I would not agree with rough ground work ~ too easy to twist an ankle.
I still do some occasional running on grass ~ very forgiving for knee injuries.

Kate, I agree with you, I too skied during my marathon years. But marathon training is VERY time consuming ~ I was running 60~ 80 miles a week. My point now is that we can extend our ski capabilities by concentrating mainly on strength and mobility work.

Dave have you done or thought about doing the Ironman over here in Lanzarote.

You might find some old J2 skiers in the exhibits -)
