Out of date ski. You'll be making it 25% harder for her to ski than it needs to be. Do her a big favour and find something with tip rocker/early rise

I never have a problem rising early on a ski trip

Can someone explain what these skis are (tip rocker or early rise) and why they help? Thanks.

I'll try and write an explanation of what it's all about in the next day or so.

The internet is a great place to gather information. Have you ever heard of google?

I so enjoy reading and "analyzing" responses from all the actors on various chat sites!
Ever wonder how your are perceived!

Some years from now, some of you lucky ones will get a "dossier" of how you are seen by total strangers! You can determine if the profile was on mark !

Tony H,
As always you are so on the mark with your, "ever heard of google" question ! I am still amazed,,, after several years of reading various chat sites how some person ask for "irrelevant" information sources!
By all means Tspill,,,try first google! Then the companies themselves! Then perhaps other more informed "academic" information sites !

That goes to all;
-what is the best ski,,best boot, best resort, best pole etc,,,
-who has the latest gadget, phone camera, GPS, hoody, sunglasses, etc,,,
-what best You Tube teaches how to breath, live, become expert, etc,,,
-how to dress for skiing
-what to say in ski bar
-etc,,,,


Now back to original issue,,,,seducing wife/husband to ski ! The key word is seducing !

Can we agree that skiing is not for everyone ! I know,,I know,,,,I hear the gasp all over the cyber world, I hear the groan,,,,from all you J2ski stars !
So first you must accept that for some skiing,,,is NOT a preferred activity !

If the partner is still "open" to trying it,,then the "honey approach" is much better than the vinegar one ! In short,,,never force anyone to ski ! ( You all know that forcing can be done in many ways) Do not do this !

To some just sitting in the sun near snow is skiing!

To some just sipping a drink at a bar in a ski resort is skiing.

To some just being in a outdoor spa watching skiers passing by is skiing !

Since this is a "public" site,,I will send via PM my "effective" seductive techniques which I have used over the years to introduce skiing to others!

All I ask is that you do not pass along these secret "seductive" techniques !

I will just pass along one, which I used on all my children with great success!
Every Sunday I would take my children to a local smallish ski hill ( really just a slope ) ! It had small T bar beside a sled run and a small resto !

The youngest would just sit, bundled up in a sled at the bottom watching ! Seeing all the fun! Watching all the children laughing ! ( laughing is infectuous you know ) !
After several trips,,,the youngest would say,,,"where are my skis"?

The seduction has begun !

Step one,,wait for person to want to ski ! All you have to do is "seduce" them with ; happiness, freedom, friendship, love, attention, sun, sharing, challenge,,,you name it !

Once they have taken that first bite,,,,,,,,the rest is easy ! ( Please allow me this suggestion Dave,,,before all the others get into other matters )

That is WANT,,,is the key !

Hope this helps you !

Oh,,,,coming up is a Pavel story about how I "seduced" a 200 lb. women who was afraid of speed, afraid of flying, afraid of cold, afraid to get hurt, afraid of pain etc,,,,to ski with me !

It did happen !

Respectfully,
Pavel
