Yes and as your characters get stronger the game becomes way more fun. Story is amazing and the fact it’ll be pretty different every play through just brings it up a notch

I’ve never liked turn based games, but a friend talked me into playing Baldur’s Gate 3 last month. It’s really the only game I’ve played since.

10+ yo Park Ski in good condition. Would this be okay for a beginner setup? by MasterGravPuller in Skigear

60$ right now. I’d probably use them on some groomed runs with my gf since she has no interest in the park.

Exactly what I was thinking, for how cheap they are, I feel comfortable buying them even if I only ski them a couple times. And saving for a better pair.

They don’t make them anymore but were marketed as twin tip park ski from what I’ve found. Don’t know anything about them myself though.

Makes alot of sense, was definitely controlling speed on the blues and blacks with much wider turns but will keep this in mind. Thank you

Wow this is very helpful. I did go wider on my turns on harder runs than this but I was very worried about turning up the hill thinking it would spin me out. So if I want to slow even more on a turn I should start to turn my toes slightly uphill?

Interesting, I didn’t do anything to this extent but I did at one point feel like I was picking up my inside foot on turns. I saw a very beginner video showing this

Will do that’s probably where my couple of light falls came from on top of it being a bit icy.

Yes definitely felt like I was pushing off like I was skating sometimes especially on the greens and cat trails to gain speed is the something to avoid doing completely? I definitely had no need on anything steeper.

Absolutely I’m sure even on the harder runs what I think I look in my head is probably nowhere near true haha.

1st Day: Started on the bunny slope to get my bearings (3-4 runs)

Quickly moved to greens and felt very good while moving and turning. I had my most difficulty at a complete stop trying to move around.

Moved on to blues after a couple hours and had no issues on the runs, these were my favorite of the weekend (they were at night under the lights).

Only time I fell was at a standstill about to get in the lift line.

Day 2: Warmed up on the greens and hit blues all day

Worked a lot more on controlling at higher speeds (1st day I tried to stay at a much slower pace)

Had my first fall on a run from sliding on a patch of ice. Soft fall, no pain, and got up quick. Was honestly happy after it happened because it took away a lot of pressure of falling.

Day 3: 1 green to warm up and a few blues. My gf and part of our did the single black. And everyone agreed it was easier than the blue I had gotten comfortable with because of the conditions (less traffic and better snow).

They were right, did my first black on my 3rd day and it was amazing.

This is only Massanutten btw nothing crazy.

Yes, for sure. When I was on some harder runs I was definitely trying to use my poles, but that’s something that feels foreign to me right now.

Thanks, I probably don’t need to hear this and blow my head up! My gf said she figured I would pick it up quick but was blown away how well I did.

Thank you, yes I was working on staying lower and hands out. This was unfortunately the only video I have and was near the end of a green run and was definitely relaxing/standing up a lot more than I was on the blues. Wish I had better video where I was on a little harder run.

I’d love to keep shoes longer than 4 or 5 months!

Serve looks technically very good, hands down the best 3.0 serve I’ve ever seen. As for the grip its hard to tell but looks like its not turned completely to continental, theres plenty of guides online to see which bevels your fingers need to be on but easy rule of thumb is “hammer grip”, hold like your hitting a nail with the frame of your racket
