I googled "Online ski community". Several results came up and I checked all, one by one. Some seemed dead (some years since latest activity), some Reddit groups which I checked but wasn't so pleased with certain maybe impolite interactions (I'm there nevertheless under username "AutisticSkier", mostly reading posts but not posting myself), and this one SkiDiva, which after reading all the kind, polite interactions, I decided not only register (CyberLola is my Twitter username as well, and the one I use for cyber security public appearances) but make a first post about freestyle, my main skiing interest, which has been received not only with kindness but with excellent, valuable advice.

I'm very pleased to have found SkiDiva and want to say thank you very much to its founder.

Welcome @CyberLola You have come to the right place! I've been on SkiDiva for nearly 16 years and the most important time was during Covid lock down...

Thank you very much for your kind welcome message @snowski/swimmouse !
2 yrs with no skiing because of covid was so boring.
So happy now we can be back and find happiness in the snow again.

I joined as I was getting back into skiing after ~7yr hiatus, and realized I needed modern skis/boots. Couldn't really find gear reviews for short women who needed skis that were <155cm, <90mm waist... just pages and pages of men's skis! While I didn't care if my skis/boots were unisex, essentially none of the reviewed models were manufactured in a suitable length/BSL. So, I came here after lurking, as there are a bunch of other tiny Divas with *much* higher skiing skillsets than I have! Same struggles! I geek out a little bit on gear and tech specs, and it seems like I'm not alone here. Plus, everyone seems so supportive and friendly and patient!

Didn't even realize about the social meetups until a couple dozen posts in... and finally making it happen this season (thanks, COVID). Met two lovely ladies already; off to DivaEast in less than 2 weeks!

I'm on reddit, too (same username), but there's a lot more "noise" there when it comes to ski discussion, and questions on women's gear don't get much of a response. Exponentially higher quality posts here!
