No major city in the world is a good place for a ski place, if you mean a good place to ski.

Skiing requires snow and a slope, so ski places are more generally located in mountains.

However, Seattle is near several major ski areas, including Snoqualmie Pass, Mt Baker, and farther north in Canada, Whistler-Blackcomb Mountain. So if you wanted to sell ski gear, then Seattle might be a place where you can locate a ski shop.

A Christie Turn is a combination of a Stem Turn and a Parallel Turn.

You start with your skis parallel, skiing downhill, or traversing across the hill. When you want to turn, you put your upper ski into a V position, with the front of your skis pointing together. You will now be 'Snow Plowing'. Once your in this position, you can adjust your weight to inside edge of the outside ski, causing you to start rotating down the hill on that ski. Once you are nearing the desired end of your turn, you slide, or lift, your other ski, so you are standing parallel again.

This is repeated, and practiced, until the skiier has learned a full Parallel Turn.

That depends on which country you are in.

In some countries (e.g Italy, Switzerland and Austria) the colors blue, red and black are used with blue beeing the easiest.

In other countries (e.g. France, Andorra and Sweden) green, blue, red and black is used with green beeing the easiest.

The first hints to the existence of skis are on 4500-5000 years old rock drawings , e.g. at Rødoy in Norway (discovered 1933) or at Steinkjer (discovered 2001), which depict a man on skis holding a stick. The oldest known ski, Kalvträsksidan was found in 1924 in a mire near the village of Kalvträsk in the municipality of Skellefteå, Sweden, and has been carbon dated to roughly 3200 B.C.

In general, light weight is not an advantage in alpine (downhill) skiing. Lighter-weight skis do not dampen vibration as well and can bend or break more easily. This is not to say that the heaviest ski is best, either; a heavy ski means a high swing weight, which forces the skier to work harder to turn. In general, beginner-type skis are both shorter and lighter than skis for advanced skiers, often having a foam core instead of a heavier (and more responsive) wood core.

I personally prefer bibs because I find when I use pants they fall down a little bit and when I snowboard I tend to get tons of snow in them because the falling pulls them down more and snow gets in your pants. It also depends on the quality, however. A cheap ski bib would be worse than a quality, ski specific pant. Person preference is also a major factor.

Go to a Head dealer. They're not usually kept in stock (because they don't usually break), but you can order them.
