Wear The Fox Hat, I think you did very well to ski with a broken right leg. Must have been a booger to get the pants over the pot.
I may laugh, but the style is so..............ME

ssh, actually, let me modify my previous answer:
Why? Because I have pics of me skiing, which can be used as a learning aid for myself, and hopefully others - whether you pick up skiing tips from someone else, instruction tips, or whatever.

Wear The Fox Hat, that makes sense... it's always helpful to me to understand the purpose. I would not want you to take input from this picture into your current skiing is all.
For those looking at the picture, a couple of things to think about: how are the joints flexing? Are they flexing approximately the same? Do the feet, ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, and hands approximately line up? What might we change to make them more consistent?
Fox, I've always liked that picture and always wished I had been there with you!

Fox, I think you look cool, but what is that thing you are wearing round your neck?
Is it one of those electronic tags?

You're wearing beige and don't seem to have a beer in your hand.
On the plus side, you are headed in the direction of the bar.

hey fox - just looking at lower half to start here's a couple of things you may want to think about:
Positive - Love the long outer leg, really allowing you and ski to balance against snow powerfully and skeletally stacked - + corresponding nice shorter inside leg - this is a key ingredient to upper level carving and race technique (if that floats your boat).
Negative - You could drive a truck through your open hips, evident from massive inside ski tip lead. If you were to close your hips up (ski tips more in line) this would give you loads more power/grip throughout the phases of the turn.
In fact square up the skis and that combined with the funky bases would be looking scweet (IMHO)
