Does anyone else have issues with nausea when skiing that are unrelated to altitude? I don't think altitude is the issue as I live at 4800ft and never have these issues when hiking the same mountains that I ski.
For some reason this has got steadily worse over the years for me... it seems like it started several years ago when I got caught in a whiteout at the top of the mountain in an area where there were no trees. I thought I was turning left but fell over on my right side, at the top of the run, going like 1mph (and I wasn't the only person who ate it in the same place). Since then it seems that quite often I get nauseous while skiing, even in bright conditions, but more often when it's cloudy or flat. I detest the feeling, and it's making me less enthusiastic about skiing .
Just wondering if anyone else experiences similar symptoms and if so, what do you do about it?
