Skiing w00t! Options

[donkeybeatz]

I leaving to Denver today to go skiing! I have no experience in skiing nor did I do the exercises (that my brother and sister urged me to do). Soooo I might end up getting hurt more than I'm supposed to. Doesn't look like the weather is gonna be easy on me either...

Check ya later peeps!

Wassup guys. I just came back from Denver and man, I am sore as hell (mostly from the snow tubing .. in one of the slides there was a ramp that tosses you in the air. one guy told me to keep my ass up. I tried but my ass hit the snow as I landed.)

Anyway, I went to Copper Mountain. Not as cold as I thought it would be. The first day was frustrating. The bunny slopes were OK, but I still didn't know how to stop haha.
My brother asked if we wanted to go on the Green (beginner) slopes, I said whatever.
Well most of the green slopes weren't that beginner friendly... especially if you don't know how to slow down. I ended up wiping out a bunch of times. One time (I have no idea how) I seemed to kicked myself in the nuts. Yes it hurts but it didn't leave me hurting the next day. Oh yea, that pizza slice move didn't work for me on the first day. I couldn't really get the concept down. So I had to rely on falling down with style.

The second day was much better. They opened up another section of the green slopes, which was alot easier. This time the pizza slice move worked. I have no idea how I was doing it wrong the day before. I only fell twice the whole day. So I had fun. I just got turning down that day so I could actually avoid people.
I'd go again next year if given the chance.
My ass still hurts though. No broken bones =)
