[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I learned after 40 and it is still scary and skiing is a huge hassle generally I think people lose tolerance for the hassle with carrying skis etc.[/quote] There is a big difference between learning young and continuing to ski as you get older. It is like riding a bike, there are certain movements which become intuitive. As you get older, you become more risk averse and it's hard to become a great skier when you're always afraid of falling. Also agree with the poster that it's harder/less fun to ski for 5 days straight when you get older. I think lots of older people who live in resort towns ski early and call it a day at lunch.[/quote] They do that bc that’s when the snow is best and the lift lines are shortest.[/quote]
