Since it was such a nice weekend I went skiing with a couple of the guys. Both Saturday and Sunday were great conditions. Both days the snow was particularly fast. Sunday we went on the Oaks, which was all fine and good, but I had my first two actual ski crashes. The two large downhills on the oaks I was trying to snowplow, but ended up doing a face plant on both attemps. Hmm I guess maybe I should practice on some smaller hill. The first crash was actually quite gracefull if I say so myself ( If a crash can be graceful). The second however was a little more crash like. went down and lost a ski, twisted that ankle a little and smacked the thumb. I don't know if bindings are supposed to release at a certain point, but the metal bar on my boot ended up bending to one side. Luckily I did managed to barely clip in and got out without too much hassle. So now I have to try and repair my boot. I am a little achy this morning, but nothing at all serious. It's good to be young thats all I can say.
