I went skiing once to the exotic resort of Glen Shee when I was about 14. After basic training.
They added a gate with two ski poles with another one like a bar across the top. Easy thinks the bold boy, wrong! Ended up sitting on the back of my skis heading down hill at a rate into a frozen burn.
Stuck with it though, managed parallel turns and all sorts, just couldn't stop. Ended in the middle of the coach park upright with hired skis totally wrecked on rock salt.
Won't be doing that again at my age
