Since I claim to keep on Learning something new the longer I ski, and since we are half-way in the ski season, this stands as a good opportunity to take stock of where I am in my learning process. There are basically two elements that come to my mind. 

First, I’m learning that Skiing one’s own age is becoming much tougher as we grow old. At first, with a ski season that begun so poorly, I had even some serious doubts I could make it, and even today, as I have juste 40 ski-days behind my belt, the remaining 36 still need to be garnered, so in skiing like in life in general, there’s no guarantee.

Second, and while I’m not a fan of carving, I’ve discovered two little “pedals” on the inside of the arches of my feet, that when depressed, get me into an easy carve, especially on flatter terrain, and this is a neat sensation, something that deserves to be observed and analyzed as time goes by. 

And with this, I’m done for this half-season round up!
