i have a feeling skiing drunk would really affect your skiing, havent tried it yet though
But skiing high does not!
Exactly! An true alcholic will isolate and lose all interest in things/activites that once gave them pleasure, in this case....skiing.
If the guy who started this thread meant "does *Drinking* and drugging affect your skiing", I can't talk for drugs, but back in my drinking days I definetly was a more extreme skier and would attempt things I may not have if I was sober, and that's not always a good thing. Alcohol alters your judgement and response time. I think we all know that. Drinking in excess puts you at a higher risk for injury...duh! But on the upside.....IF you crash, it probably won't hurt as much, until the next day of course, at which point you'll ask yourself....what the fudge did I do to myself!? Blackout
Truth!! I find skiing and following the ski community a much healthier alternative indeed!!!!:) Gives me such a thrill and joy I never thought possible!! Skiing=Life=serenity=peace....and so on and so on!!!! I'm blessed to still be able to ski......and to be Free from drinking!!
