Ski

Kate asked:


How much exercise do you really get downhill skiing? We ski for about 3 hrs at a time. I don’t think it’s much (all that lift-riding), but my husband disagrees. My legs feel exercised, but I don’t think I get much cardio benefit? Opinions?

I have skiied since i was 4, and I have snowboarded 2. How ever i have nvr liked snowboarding as much as skiing… why is that? I started both in the same year.

Trump asked:


Hey everyone, I see tons of plans and kits online to build catamarans, kayaks, small fishing boats… I want plans or a kit to build a large speed boat for water skiing! You know like the boat can hold like 6 - 8 people. It would be like 25 feet long, etc. Any one know of any? Thanks.

I was just wondering what makes downhill skiing so popular to watch

MJQ asked:


I wear medium-weight ski socks, but when the temperatures drop to below about -20 C / -4 F, the cold affects the feet (especially the toes). I know there are air-activated heat pads for the toe area, and I’ve seen battery-operated electrically heated socks (but these are usually designed for hunting or wading). What’s the best solution for keeping feet warm whilst skiing in very cold temperatures? Thank you.

Justin asked:


With the new shake to shuffle feature, i’m worried that the ipod will shuffle even when its just moving a little (not intensionally shaking it) while skiing or running or something like that? Thanks in advance!

patrick r asked:


I’m 14 and I’ve always done a lot of summit and back country stuff. This year my friends are encouraging me to get into freestyle skiing but I don’t know where to begin. What are some good freestyle tricks that will help me get my feet wet and kind of show me the ropes?

Enjoy Life asked:


I have gone both snowboarding and skiing and hated both.
This is not good at all, considering all of my family is big on skiing.
We even own a condo where we can ski, but I merely read in the lodge and wait in anger for them to be done.

Does anyone else out there hate these things?
Why do you hate them?

dvmdanni asked:


I’m 17 and I’m going skiing in Colorado in late March. What do you wear on the slopes? It will be pretty warm but do you just wear jeans and a sweatshirt? Please tell me what most people will be wearing.
