Skiing

12-10-08

At least in Europe you wear the same clothes as you skiied in most often including the ski boots.

The Uppsala Alpine Center in Uppsala, Sweden is a good candidate but I don't know if it is the lowest.

It is between the 0 and 5 m height lines on the map. I don't have exact data but I would guess it's somewhere around 3, perhaps 4 meters above sea level.

There are also two resorts in Stockholm, Sweden, in Saltsj�¶baden and Liding�¶ which are both situated by the sea between the 0 and 10 meter height lines.

Kvisthamrabacken in Norrtälje, Sweden is 0,9 m above sea level and is probably lower then the "resorts" mentioned above.

These are not really ski resorts but rather a hill with a lift and no accomodation.

In skiing you must go around the outside of the gate but the colors of the gate alternate, so every other gate is blue and same with red.

Yes

Wachusett Mountain Ski Resort is located at 41 Mile High Road, Westminster, Massachusetts, 01473. They offer downhill skiing, cross country skiing and snowboarding.

of course you can

Yes, my son, but don't eat the snow!

In Idaho

Downhill bindings are adjustable for different size boots. Cross-country bindings only lock into the toe of the boot, so one binding works with any compatible boot.

Alberto Tomba was an Italian Olympic alpine skier. He won gold in the slalom in 1988, gold in the giant slalom in 1988 and 1992, and silver in the slalom in 1992 and 1994.

It sure is. Mammoth Mountain Ski Area covers 3500 skiable lift-served acres, although that's significantly less than Vail's 5289 acres and a bit less than Squaw Valley's 4000.

what year did Diane Gordon Lenox compete for the slalom and downhill alpine skiing events with one armin cast

The speed of the ski lift will depend on the type of lift.

There are detachable grip lifts that can run between 900 and 1200 feet per minute (fpm). At Killington the detachable lifts include, both gondolas, Superstar, Ramshead, Needles Eye, Skye Peak and the Snowshed quads. I believe only the Skye Ship Gondola runs at 1200 fpm.

The remaining Killington lifts have fixed grips (the part of the chair that grips the rope). The speed of a fixed grip will depend on the number of people each chair holds. Maximum allowable speeds vary from State to State but speaking generally: doubles- 550 fpm; triples- 500 fpm; quads- 450 fpm

Usually 20 minutes, 30-40 tops in the winter. Consider the icy roads.

Yes he does. it is on the back of his left upper arm.

Deer Valley Utah, ALTA Utah (personal preference), mad river, and one other I cant remember the name of.

Chemmy Alcot started skiing at the age of 18 months old. By the age of 3, she began participating in ski races.

for snow to be snow, not water, the temperature of the air has to be below 0 degrees Celsius (freezing point) and the ground has to be below 0 degrees Celsius.

ZERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try to just cram your foot into something smaller. I have a size 9 foot and I wear a size 6 boot so you probably don't need a 17, maybe a 15 or 16 but as to where to find it... I have no idea

First of all, never cram your feet into anything, it makes your feet sore and it can cause foot problems. Secondly, if you are shoe size 17 your ski boot size is smaller, get fitted by a ski technician. Finally, if you still have no luck and you wear multiple pairs of socks, go down to just one, you should do this anyways. Ski boot shells are usually quite large and the liners just make them smaller so you should ask if they can replace the current liner with a thinner one. This won't make the boot less warm or less comfortable as long as the liner is of good quality. Go to all your local ski shops and they will fit you and if they have anything that will fit get it, they will also make any alterations you need to have made to the lining.

I want to ski : I'll go soon.

competitions are actually held year round (we use ceramic tracks and long plastic grass for landing)
