Downhill skiing is a ton of fun, even though I mostly do regular skiing
When I first started snowboarding, I was a broke college student. Just go late afternoon and buy or ask for day pass tickets from people leaving. I know its illegal, but a college student gotta do what they gotta do to enjoy the slopes.
Are injuries really that common? I'll go skiing to Zermatt in December. First timer.
I have only ever been skiing in Switzerland, but that is probably the best place to start. They mark the rundowns ("pisten" in german) according to the difficulty they pose, with blue for easy, red for medium, and black for hard. Just stick to the blue ones until you feel confident enough to try the more difficult ones.
That's pretty common. In the US they have bunny (super basic slope for children), green, blue, black and black diamond
I do some pretty reckless shit for fun, but skiing has never appealed to me in any way.
Worth it
Rent skis for 50$? It is cheaper to just buy them!
I tried snowboarding once.. I think the rental snowboard was shit, the front of the board kept catching and I'd go sailing through the air.. lucky I didn't break my neck.. I was so done with it
