[quote=Anonymous]I agree that skiing is easier and more enjoyable on Western powder, but I learned as adult and do have to say that learning on Eastern ice made me a better skier. You have to have perfect form to turn and stop on ice. I went out West, and I realized I would have probably gotten away with a lot of bad habits if I had learned out there. I think how successful you are learning as an adult depends on balance and athleticism, but a lot of it is how fearless you are. It’s physically harder to ski very slow than it is faster. You need to be able to let yourself get up some speed and let gravity take you down the hill. A good measure is — do you like or hate rollercoasters? [/quote]
