Ski conditions are what they are!

I have always liked to say that “there isn't a bad day skiing” and have for the most part meant it. True, there are days when the conditions could be better, but in those circumstances, I always try to look at the better side of the situation and ask myself “what could I learn out of it?” and then I make a genuine effort to enjoy the experience, push myself as much as I can, and the dividends I receive generally accrue in favor of my skiing technique.

Skiing rough terrain, bad snow and less than idyllic visibility all contribute to strengthening our on-snow performance. Another way to confirm Friedrich Nietzsche's saying: “That which does not kill us makes us stronger...”
