In 1996 Hans Kammerlander (who downclimbed a few snowless sections) skied it. The first uninterrupted ski descent was made by Davo Karnicar in 2000 via the standard Southeast Ridge route, and snowboard descents were made by Stefan Gatt and Marco Siffredi in 2001. Also Kit Deslauries (sp)with her husband Rob DesLauriers and friend Jimmy Chin became the first woman to ski it. I remember being amazed when I read this in a Ski Magazine. Some of the steepest sections are slightly ridiculous especially considering the risk factor. Also a movie was made about Yuichiro Miura's attempt to ski a steep portion of everest. (The Man who skied Everest).Check out some pics of Davo Karnicar here...http://www.mounteverest.net/news.php?id=10110 Also a movie was made about Yuichiro Miura's attempt to ski a steep portion of everest.

How do ski poles help you balance?
Ski poles only help you balance when you are a beginner. Beginners who rely on their ski poles for balance end up learning some bad habits of form, some ski areas won't even give students poles until they're an intermediate skier! Ski poles are more about rhythm, and when you're in difficult terrain, like moguls, they help you with unweighting. (They are also very handy for unhooking bindings and for pointing to things in the distance ;-) ) If you are relying on your poles for balance, or dragging them while you ski because that makes you feel secure, you might want to try skiing without them for awhile. You'll develop balance much faster without them.
