Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

....That some specific gym work might fix your problem; in general, alpine skiing requires an 'endurance power' profile which is somewhere around 65% Type 1 and 35% Type 2a (not 2x ... that's body builder territory). Your mostly endurance sport training is likely to have given you something more like an 80%, or more, Type 1 muscle fibre profile.
^ 110% this : By far the best way to reduce knee pain is gym work & physio. Your knee is fundamentally held together by the leg muscles.
