my dad pushed me down a mountain when i could walk...lied about my age to get me into ski school...dont remember exactly how old, but i remember my first fall and it sucked
switched to snowboarding for half a season when i was 12 or 13, bailed on that shit after i decided i didnt give a shit if it was "cool" or not, i just wanted to go fast and get better at something i was already pretty good at
got on twins like 3 years ago, never looked back

Started cross-country skiing when I was 2. did that every year until I started downhill skiing when I was in 4th grade, which would've made me 10 if my math is correct.
12 years later, and I'm still addicted.
Got my first twin-tips in '99 I think.
