Major Ski Blunders 3

I love to watch "new" skiers. I learn so much about human behavior!
Notice the quotation marks on the term new!

New is not defined by time, by duration of skiing experience and that is why this "blunders" list is given since many 5 year skiers are still performing skiing blunders. Not sure if it is due to personality trait, self-centered attitude, or just blindness! You decide !

The skiing activity has so many "procedures", techniques, rituals, rules that books have been written about "how,,,,,,while skiing" and still some issues are missed!

Simple aspects like how to wear goggles or is it googles ?

A major ski blunder I often still see is skiers buying very expensive ski goggles and then placing them on their heads or on their helmets while skiing!

What is the point ?

These have two functions ( to some there are three ).
1. To see the terrain well , thus various lenses
2. To protect eyes from sun/ wind/ branches
3 To look good ( for some )

Placing them on head just defeats all three functions and makes you look like a rank beginner ( you want to get rid of this "label" as soon as possible) !

The very worst blunder is to wear these on upper arm,,just the right level to have them broken or scratched.

Hope this helps some of you,,,,to save money !
