Another thing I really enjoy is skiing. I've been skiing like 20 times by now and I like to think myself pretty good at it. I've taken a few trips to Colorado to ski and been to Minnesota to ski their "ski resorts." Minnesota and Colorado are way different. In Minnesota you can go straight down all the runs and be okay, but in Colorado you need to make turns and not go straight down. You can't go straight down in Colorado because the runs are much longer and steeper so you'd build up a lot of speed and lose control, then hit a tree and break 15 bones.
This year I would really like to take another trip to Colorado. I have family in Colorado and it would be awesome if we went up and stayed for a few days and skied. My mom said something about going over spring break to ski but, I have no idea if it will actually happen or not. I like skiing because it's pretty easy and doesn't require very much work to go fast. One thing I don't really like about skiing is the cold.
I went to Minnesota to ski with some friends this winter break. I have to admit it's a lot of fun skiing with people who suck because they crash. Watching people crash on skis is pretty funny. One of my friends went off a huge jump that he didn't even see... he got huge air and crashed. I was surprised to find out that he didn't break anything. That same friend went straight down every run and had no idea how to stop without crashing, sometimes he ended up in the parking lot of the resort. If you ever get the chance, ski with people who suck because it's tons of fun watching your friends crash.
