Intermediate skier
New skis: Upgraded from beginner to Volkl Luna skis
New boots: Smaller, properly fitted
Terrain: Skied on East Coast, so far
First ski days this season will be a weekend in the Denver area. I'd like to take advantage of the good instruction I might find there. This is the first time I've switched gear, meaning I've not had to adapt to this before.
a) Bad idea to take a lesson on the first day because boots, skis, and west coast are all new to me and I'll be completely in my head?
b) Good idea because being slightly "off" with equipment might help loosen a death grip on a bad habit, or help me start the season on a better note?
c) Makes no difference
