Replying to How fast did you progress?

Now I know I'm the minority coming from a 7 year snowboarding background...just now switched to skiing.

But I've been told by a lot of people I'm progressing extremely quickly. Less than a month of riding and I'm already pretty comfortable with 270's on/off and switch ups both ways.

Granted, I rollerbladed a lot this fall to get the feel for things and I really think thats what helped.

What about you?
Did you guys pick it up really fast or were there months/years of frustration?
