Seems no matter how many times I try, I struggle with the fear of downhill speed. I read another post that talked about using turns as control vs just to slow down. Very beneficial!
I kept saying to myself - turns are for control. Seriously, helped to reduce anxiety. Then, we had a lot of fresh powder yesterday and I took a fall - not b/c of speed on a lot of downhill. I hit some powder while having speed (b/c I was ready to be done) and down I went.
8 day trip. Skied 6 days. Did a blue each of those days. But, felt OUT OF CONTROL and fear takes over. Always open to advice.
