[quote=Anonymous]I often wonder the same thing. We have a place in Breck and get on average 15 days a year. Kids have been skiing since they were 3. However their friends - at age 6 or 7 a starting bragging about skiing black, as did their parents, which I thought was strange. I tell my kids they have to learn the technique, so they were on blues a long time, then easy blacks, etc. Anyway when DD was about 8 we met her friend’s family to ski together. The kid could get down but was totally out of control with terrible technique- there’s getting down and there’s skiing - two different things. A 7 yo can’t “ski” a black after a few spring breaks on a big mountain. If they live out there - sure - they could do it at 4 or 5.[/quote]
