Anyone else get really nervous when they're skiing or skiing in general?

I feel like whenever I go skiing I'm so nervous that I'm gunna fall and get embarresed by kids that are like ten times better or that I'm gunna get hurt. Theres so much pressure to throw down such hard tricks. I feel like this season I'm just gunna not give a shit about what people think, how good i am, or getting hurt. I'm just gunna ski for fun. Who cares how good I am, as long as im havin a good time.

ski with friends that helps a lot with the nerves because it is a lot more chill

last night was my first night out in the park for the season. and i couldn't ski last year becuase of a ton of problems. but at first i felt really self conscious. but if you actually just talk to people or ski with a good friend, usually they'll want to help you to make you better

and if you fall infront of a crowd, it probably doesn't matter because you probably wont ever see those people ever again

biggest thing, find some good friends to ski with that will have fun with you and not give you a hard time. It takes like all the pressure off trust me.

Yes^ That is key. Let them know that you realize you messed up, and can do better. and you might as well be funny in the process.
On good days I will actually wait until people ARE watching to do stuff. but only on a good day.

just chill and who cares what they think. you arent skiing for them your skiing for yourself. I just relax and work on what I want to and if I fall I fall its part of learning and if anyone laughs at you for trying thats pretty damn gay

Take a step back and look around at everyone else in teh park at that moment and picture them in their underwear. But seriously, if you watch a few people in the park, you'll see that they suck too (I watch the boarders at my hill eat it on 180s and it makes me feel better) and nobody cares. If you crash a few times, it actually helps cause no body came up to you and told you that you should go cut yourself or something. Maybe pretend you're a pornstar and you like people watching you go down ;)

If people actually say go cut yourself, your hill is retarded.

just say that you suck before you start doing anything. then no one cares.
