[quote=Anonymous]I think the skier type 1 vs 2 description is pretty accurate, but disagree it’s not worth trying to learn if you’re older. If you learn as an adult, you have to manage expectations and know you’re not going to be come an expert only skiing a couple days a season. Becoming competent enough to skis greens and some easier blues can be enough to enjoy a day on the mountain.

I currently live with easy access to a ski place. My ski experience prior to living here was a couple times as a kid and early 20s in the midAtlantic. It took a couple seasons for me to get the nerve to try again, but now love it. My late elementary/middle school kids all ski way better than me. I’m so glad I finally overcame my hesitation and got them out there at early ages. We have passes and all the gear, but they’re focused on other winter sports so we don’t go nearly enough. A bluebird day after a big storm is pure bliss, especially if it’s during the week or a highway is closed so it’s a “locals day.” I can see how people become hooked. Unfortunately my husband has no interest, so ski vacations are out. [/quote]
