Q. Can you learn to ski at 40?
One of the best things about skiing is that it can be taken up almost as easily at 40 or even 50 as at 10 or 20. In fact, a grown-up is likely to do better at first than a youngster. The first time you go skiing, try it for a day or two, preferably at a well-developed ski resort. Rent all your equipment.
Q. How many times do you need to get good at skiing?
But the aim is to ski it well – not just get down it by snowploughing. So being a good expert skier is all about skiing difficult slopes with good technique, which means controlled speed and well-formed parallel turns. It can take anywhere from 3 to 10 weeks to get to this stage.
