Bears can ski??:stunned:

I love cross-country, but downhill is for the adrenaline crowd, who can afford knee-replacement surgery..:laugh3: (just ask my cousin Pat about that.)

Best is when the weather is just right, and the snow has that perfect slipperiness to it..

ditto, Chuck. Cross country is my favourite too, I love going off for a trek on my on into the off beaten paths.

 

I do like downhill, I just usually end up on me arse more often than not though!

 

(hides from MC- but i excel best in snowboarding)

never laid eyes on a pair of skis never mind gone skiing :stunned:

Every year I go to les Ménuires and it's crammed with English people and also Dutch. I'm delighted to see them. I can keep up my English with them. :)

I liked cross country for a short period when I was about 6, and then just got too lazy to drag myself around a flat path with long sticks strapped to my feet. :P I just don't get the point of it when you can amble around in the snow by just walking, and save yourself all the work.

 

(or maybe I'm just a terrible cross country skier, and that's why I always went so slowly. :lol:)

With cross-country skis you can also skate. It's tiring though, even with special skis.

cross country skiing is fun at times!

It's a good way to exercise during winter when running isn't really an option.

Time will be long before I go back over there (sigh). :inquisitive:
