Dads of NS

SuspiciousFishDad of 2 awesome girls signing in. One is 5 and the other is 2 and I want to get my older one to start skiing this year. She loves to watch ski edits, especially the Faction girls edits. This was from a few years ago when I skated around the resort and went down the magic carpet run with my girl in my front carrier:

there is nothing more satisfying than to watch your kids grow up and mature on and off the hill. the time spent on the lift has been a great time to talk and listen and learn about what makes each kid tick. I wouldn’t trade dad/daughter ski days for anything.

MiIfHunterI got at least like five chicks pregnant my freshmen year in college but I blocked the girls numbers and never met the kids

mrk127The username fits

switchlip2I was almost a dad a few weeks ago

Gulo_guloJust had our first in December, really looking forward to getting him out there.

ski@jaypeak2I have a 3 year old and a 6 year old, they have both stood on skis and walked around the yard. We are headed to Sunday River for Feb break and i cant wait to get them into a lesson, will report back on how it goes.

skiwisconsinGot a little six year old ripper cruising with me most days. Littlest is 8 months and he loves watching his big bro ski. Still lap the park myself, just not as hard or as often. Will still toss a backflip or a flatspin every once in a while despite the fact I'm pushing 40... and am a mediocre park skier at best. Love this sport and sharing it with others is the best.

DesertStixExpecting one this year. Can’t wait to hopefully share my love of skiing with her and that she doesn’t absolutely hate it which would crush my soul

davidso1We just had ours in October of last year. After I read to him at bedtime I make sure to include a short ski edit to subliminally train him :) Good luck on your expectant child, its a wild ride!

DesertStixCongratulations and thank you! When you thinking about taking little man to the hill
for the first time?

MikeUrichHow many Dads we have here on NS?! Ive been on NS since the beginning and Im a dad of 2 now so I figure there has to be some more dads out there on NS.

Im not sure if a thread similar to this exists but if you're dad share stories, pics, videos, tips on teaching little kids(its not always easy), etc! Heck if you are still out there rippin and having fun, share your content too! It isnt easy making it to the slopes with all of lifes responisibilities so lets have some fun and share the fun of being a dad that skis! I'll go first:

GKSit's kind of hard to see these posts, as my son would have just been turning one.

God bless all your children

davidso1All my friends from racing/free ride started taking the little tykes up around 3/4. I’m going to give it a shot around 3 and if he takes to it. He’s already quite physically active and vocal given his age and slightly premature birth (3 weeks early) so I’m optimistic! Congrats again! We need to out-populate non-skiers.

rudagerLittle guy isn’t even 2 yet, and he’s already shredding the bunny hill.
Mega proud ski dad, it’s just something else taking him out, and heading him laugh as we slide down, then asking to go right back up.


learning to ski at my home hill is something too, same place where I laid my first turns when I was 2.
