Did 2 weeks of skiing during teens, then nothing for about 12 years until i worked in New Jersey in the states for 8 months. A mate out there was an instructor at the local small hills and i've been hooked ever since

I have never set foot on a ski, which is quite odd considering the amount of time I have spent in 'ski' resorts.

I did, stopped for a while and still do. Also taken up telemark. Boarding's great but there are a lot of days when skiing evn better.

You know it makes sense.
|
A lot of people seem to enjoy both these days and maximise their enjoyment on the piste based on the conditions - seems to me the best way to do it.

I've tried XC, DH & snowboarding, enjoyed all, but telemarking looks far too difficukt.

Two weeks on skis when they were long and thin. Two very weak knees meant i couldn't turn so was going to jack it all in. Mate boarded so wnet to Chalet Snowbaord at LDA for a week. Never been on a pair of skis since.
However, daughter is now learning to ski and I am thinking of having another go. My Knees are stronger now and the new skis are meant to be easier to turn so I may try it again. I think sliding with children is probably easier on skis than a board.

I skied for 15 years and have boarded for 3 years. I loved skiing, but I sort of feel like i've 'done' skiing now. Although when I'm on a drag lift on my board I'm cursing and wishing I was back on my skis

Caspar, there's nothing wrong with being bi-polar especially when all the best looking folk are boarders. Condom skin covering, pur-leazzzzy.

I really don't know how you cope.
I presume that you have yet to make such a decision today?
