No not me, I was told that 1 in 100 people that have tried skiing hate it, I came across one such person today and "I cant believe it" as victor meldrew would say she realy couldnt understand what we all saw in it throwing our selves down a mountain in frezzing condition, risking our lives!

Hi went sking for the first time this xmas, went with my 7 year old son and husband. Thought that I would be really worried about my son but shouldn't have worried he was far better than me.

I hated it to begin with but after a while I got a bit happier with it. I am not a confident person but after sking and doing what I did I felt I had achieved something and we have booked to go back to borovets next jan, so if any one here going. I will see you there.
Ca you sound much like myself! I went for the first time in March.
Everyone said to my husband that he would love it but they were not sure about me!! I dont do sport!!
Any how I managed the whole week, with no major scrapes, but dont suppose you can do much damage when your going about a mile an hour like I was!!
I dont do speed either!! LOL
We are going again next year, but dont know where yet!
them last two postings could have been my wife she was exactly the same now she keeps going on about it and cant wait until next year when we're off to borovets.
Ditto - my missus really hated the first few days of our holiday 4 years ago in Austria....AND NOW?? - her parallel is technically perfect, her courage to go faster gets better every year and even better...shes loves BG!!!
Hi Sam, mostly all my closest friends here don't do skiing and they don't understand what the hell Im doing in such freeze temps..
Oh, I don't put my energie to explain this anymore, I just GO!
And all with new skifriends I've met in BG so what more can I wish for??? ..... some(?) big! snow, good company, fun...
Dju, another year to wait
I have never tried skiing, but know that I would hate it!
I love boarding though.......even managed to buy one when I went to Pamporova earlier this year (that is despite spraining/twisting my wrist on the second day).
