Downhill Hello downhill skiers!!! This page is devoted to my favorite winter sport DOWNHILL SKIING! I started downhill skiing January 2000 at age 21. Boy I wish I would have tried it sooner! To be honest I was always terrified of it as a kid. Maybe that's why I like it so much now. I really like the outdoors and scenery and piece of mind you get in the mountains, but I love the adrenaline rush too! My folks even started skiing then too! We had always cross-country skied since I was small and I love that too.
Ski Resorts Bagged: [largest to smallest, roughly] Whiteface Mnt, New York Killington, Vermont Gore Mnt, New York Pico, Vermont Titus Mnt, New York Holliday Valley, New York Seven Springs, Pennsylvania McCauley Mnt, New York Dry Hill, New York Snow Trails, Ohio Mad River, Ohio
My current gear: Volkl Vertigo G31 skis, 188 length, with Look 7.0 Maxplate bindings. These are killer skis! Lange Boots. I got these skis the first year they were out, and they are awesome performers for my style of skiing. I like to ski aggressive and fast, more straight than curving. Volkl G31's:
Here is my fiancé and I at Seven Springs (3/01). No one was around so we took pictures of each other instead of being able to be in the same picture. Here we are together, on Pico Mnt. I believe.
Here are photos I have so far. Hold cursor over for brief description (if your computer supports this). Click on thumbnail to enlarge. Gore Mnt New York, Christmas of '00. Myself, Mom & Dad I have more! I have an album in my Photo Galleries page for skiing. Check it out...
