Which would you rather have?

Ski every day on 400 ft of vert with good parks for 5 month season

or

Ski every weekend on 400 ft of vert with 2 weeks to Keystone/Breck then back for a month of weekends then another 10 days to colorado, then an international trip then back for a month of weekends then a week in utah?

I ski almost everyday.  Ive averaged 5 days a week all season.  your body needs a break after like 8 or 9 days in a row though.

If you don't ski everyday, but you want to, why not change what you are doing so you can? Obviously if you are still in school or injured or something it's harder, but otherwise it's pretty easy to ski everyday if you want to enough.

I'm a ski instructor and have skied everyday apart from 3 since December, I'm heading to NZ this summer as well, so I will prob ski over 200 days this year. Sure a lot of people hate on instructors, but I have had so much fun the last few years. That's not the only way to ski everyday either, make a change!

I ski every single day at Lake Louise or Sunshine Village, Alberta.
Our season is from early November until May 18th. In the summer, I ski on the Whistler glacier.
YES!

I ski almost every day whether it be teaching or free skiing. I'm averaging 5 days a week.

BTW Keystone was epic today. Kiwis are so much fun to ski with.

I would, but I don't know how I'd be able to pull it off. I get so damn tired after skiing. One week spent on a road trip this spring break across BC skiing Red, Whitewater, and Revelstoke, 6 days in a row, nearly killed me. I slept soooooo much after that. Maybe after a couple weeks the stamina would increase and it would be rad though. I hate being tired.

However, that was pow shredding. I could have gone for so much more than one week at momentum.

So yeah, skiing every day would be sick. I envy the pros. Rory Bushfield once told me he got in over 200 days skiing in that season. Seriously... I think that's more than I have gone in my whole life. Seriously. I counted around 200 total. That makes me feel miserable.
