I started when I was 2, but I didn't really get into freestyle until I was 8.

I skied at 3 or 4 in Alta and then got into it a few years later, never had instructions, my parents just taught me.

Last year. So the age of 18. Played hockey from age 3 on so I never had a chance to get to the mountain, but this past year I decided to give it a try and loved it!

I feel like having prior hockey / ice skating experience puts new skiers at an advantage. Skiing is a lot like ice skating.
