Skiing Tip - Minimize The Number Of Simultaneous Yikes Factors
Print This PageLearning to ski moguls and powder can be intimidating. When you are learning to ski either, minimize the number of simultaneous "yikes" factors - those things which raise your anxiety level. Your own personal "yikes" factors might include: flat light, ice, an overly steep run, whiteout conditions, wind, poor visibility, crowds of skiers, etc. You will learn faster if you are not distracted by these conditions. Example: don't try and ski a steeper run on a flat light day. Make sure you reduce the number of anxiety factors when you are trying to learn new skills or when you are trying to step outside of your comfort zone.
To your success in becoming a better mogul and powder skier.
