Hey NS i'm new to the forum and I used to be a snowboarder.  I'm now a converted skier and I just wanted to here out if anyone has any advice on skiing.  I know there are TONS for threads here on doing things on skis.  But most of them are out of a skill level at the moment.  So if anyone has any skiing advice go ahead a shoot.

Don't bother with that pizza/french fries shit and just learn to hockey stop right off the bat.  Its just a bad habit to fall into.

if your gonna try jumps remember its knees to chest and always look over your shoulder. Although im pretty sure that applies to all snowsports alike.

the whole idea behind pizza is learning to use your edges for speed control and turning... so unless you want to be a punter for the rest of your life, don't listen to this guy and learn how to ACTUALLY ski
