NO! don't do that, thats not healthy!!!!
Need to learn to stealth pee. Find trees, large rocks etc.
Don't take off skis you'll possibly sink or post hole, plus it wastes time. Need to make a "platform" by stomping the area where you are standing so that you are stable and not sliding or position yourself against a down hill tree. Then just pee between the skis lol. Carry a few kleenex, diaper wipes in a baggie or single packaged personal hygiene wipes in your pocket. Use a day liner when you ski.
I toured w/ men most of the time last year. Was accused of being dehydrated by guide b/c never saw me pee.... HA! I was stealth, quick and caught up before they even noticed......
Regarding women's skis - be aware that many manufacturers change the recommended binding mount location on the theory that we all have big butts and our center of mass is lower and farther aft Mointing at that location will often mean that your ski is then balanced farther back - under the arch. This is not the best location from which to pivot, control and steer a ski.
So keep it in mind when setting things up. I am petite and usually opt for a woman specific ski. But I also find that I typically end up mounting my binding 1-2 cm aft of the manufacturer's recommended center line to get the true balance point closer to the ball of my foot.
Don't buy into that idea that a woman's center of mass is so different from a man's! It's a very very tiny average difference that can easily be obliterated if we just flex and extend our joints appropriately.
Just wanted to add to my previous post. I've had men on other forums push back - claiming that for women's skis, mounting bindings at any location other than manufacturer's recommended defeats the changes that designers make to the sidecut to dovetail with other "women's specific" modifications.
Sorry to say, I don't think so. I am pretty sure it is an urban legend. There are quite a few versions of this tale. "Roll of toilet paper" is a dead giveaway that this isn't a real story... who skis with a roll of toilet paper? Maybe some extra in a pocket if you are really prepared... but a roll? That's just silly.On the other hand------------- I was witness to a young lady who did just that. BECAUSE she was still wearing her skis, as she squatted to pee, her skis slid out a bit sending her down the hill with pants down and a roll of toilet paper waving .
True story.
^^^^^ This is how you do it.NO! don't do that, thats not healthy!!!!

Women's skis are great, but they're not for everyone: The ski you choose has more to do with your ability, weight, and height than it has to do with your gender. So don't overlook a ski just because it's not categorized as a "women's" ski.
It is true, but sometimes the ski manufacturers don't make them long enough for the tallest and heaviest of us! I fully realize it's not a problem for most women though.I'll throw in the exact opposite of this as well...
Don't underestimate a ski simply because it IS categorized as a woman's ski. There are a lot of strong women skiers that overlook women's skis because they assume they'll over power it...IMO, they're missing out on a lot of good, strong skis.
Pee standing up! This is a handy little thing, and the immediate availability of snow makes rinsing so uncomplicated.

I know this topic is taking a major thread drift... Would the GoGirl help skiing? or just better aim? And just out of curiosity where is your pee going on the boat?DH and I spend a lot of time on boats in the summer, and over this past summer, I acquired one and got pretty good at using it.
