hey, where did you go? My first time monoskiing was in Snowmass, CO but my favorite place is Breckenridge, CO. I've been to a couple of other places on the East coast but it's just not as good as Colorado for me! The snow, the view-you can NOT beat it.

I'm assuming you skiied before your accident? How hard was it to adjust for you? You looked like you were doing awesome. I know I pretty much ate snow for a couple of days before I got the feel for it, haha. I used to snowboard so it was really different the first time, lol.

am loving it and took to it pretty quick. only 4 days on the ski so far but had a powder this week and was totally stoked getting laps full of snow.



PS i am in NZ so we are winter now

Ohhhhh. I assumed you were in the US-sorry! I've never been to NZ but I bet the snow there is awesome too! I'm glad you're enjoying it-think of me the next time you ski!! I still have to wait a couple of months!

Nice videos. I remember falling a lot the first time I tried, lol

You guys need to ski out in Mammoth Lakes, California. Absolutely INCREDIBLE.
