I have come here often this year to get tips and read lots. Well last week I skied for four days and Friday being my B-day and sunny we skied a full and long great day.
Then yesturday we went skiing at last minute. It was mostly sunny, warm and just a bit of a wind, it was nice Spring skiing. So we skied a few runs and nothing felt too different. then took a few more runs and things started to feel different.
Then after lunch I skied a bunch more runs on some different and slightly harder trails when it all seemed to come together. I felt fluid, smooth and was even told I looked really good. It was nice to hear.
What I realized was a few things:
First as many say here, get as many days in as you can!
I also realized I got my skis last Spring and thought they were good skis. But this Winter they struggled, now they ski really well. So have come to see they do real well in Spring conditions, hand them ice and hard pack and they get really squirrely and chatter all over the place! So they are my Spring Ski! Hoping to get other skis for the winter skiing
Lastly, I felt so good out there, was doing really good turns doing pole plants, turns fully and carving nicely and felt oh so good. So fluid and smooth and most importantly had an great time Yeah!!
Now I am really hooked! yippee!!
