#skiing

Challenging snow is one of my favorite kinds of skiing, and I like being able to switch techniques at liberty. ↗

When I started to sing, my mother would have me engaged to perform at the Women's Christian Temperance Union national or annual meetings. I would hate doing this because I wanted to play baseball or go off skiing. ↗

Skiing is better than sex actually, because for me a good round of sex might be seven minutes. Skiing you can do for seven hours. ↗

Skiing is the pleasurable part of alpinism - way more pleasurable and fun than alpine climbing. ↗

But there was no question in my mind that I was gonna still go for it. I was still going for the win. I wasn't skiing for second or third place today, and in the end I think that's probably what got me there. ↗

I'm still having fun and as long as skiing is enjoyable, I'm going to continue to do it. ↗

There are many skiers who have chosen tele for a more compact, streamlined skiing system. ↗

It is better to go skiing and think of God, than go to church and think of sport. ↗

I found in myself the ability to give everything, to lay the whole show on the line. In that ability is hidden happiness, and all men have it, lurking somewhere.. ↗

Now I know that strange things happen to your body when it meets the snow at 100 mph, no matter what the position. In the twinkling of hitting the snow I regained a proper respect for speed. If you are inattentive, as well as somewhat stupid, you may breed a contempt for big speeds, forgetting respect through the grace of being atop your skis each run. No one on his back at 100 mph will ever after have contempt for speed. ↗
