Everyone has at least one fear about skiing when they begin. I ski double black diamonds and I've gotten used to the fact that I could crack my head open by hitting a tree.( I wear a helmet!) But when I first tried a double black, I was terrified! My friend had to trick me into skiing it. But now, that I've gone over it a few times, I start have tons of fun and It's practically the only thing I ski now!! So I guess you just have to get over your fears and tell yourself that you have nothing to lose.(but I would suggest using a helmet, it makes all the difference) Pretty soon, you feel invinsible!! So when you have a fear of skiing...GET OVER IT!!!

I went skiing once, and i hope to do it again!  It's sort of hard, but get lessons.  Just go to a local mountain and they probably have hour lessons, and then you can ski on your own for the day.  If it's your first time, it's almost a necessity to have lessons.  I personally got the hang of it almost immediatly.  But, I'm a kid, I'm active, and I learn really quickly!!!  But most people probably would get the hang of turning and all that pretty quickly.  In an hour lesson you'll have it figured out.  maybe not perfectly, but eventually you'll get it figured out!  It's not really that dangerous if you start on a hill that's your level.  I started on the beginner hill, and I went on the intermediate hill 3 times.  Twice with my instructor, but when I went alone, I fell, lost my skiis, then got my skiis, and lost my poles.  Then my friend tried to get it and we ended up pretty much rolling down the hill.  Tips are, well don't go straight down, swerve back and forth.  That's how I fell down, I went straight down too quickly.  Don't go for speed at first.  I loved the speed, but only on the beginner!!!  Anyway, hope I helped!  And go try skiing, it's awesome!

Not to many, I would guess. People haven't lived in caves in quite some time, so probably it is limited to hermits and the horrible subspecies of Morlocks.\n\nBut if you mean "how many people live on the world," well then that is a different matter entirely.

I think most people are alone because they are more afraid of getting hurt than they are interested in other people.

Sure, I'm afraid of getting into a serious car accident and wake up not knowing who I am.  When I was in the military, I was more afraid of coming home in a body bag and having my wife and family mourn for me.  Afraid for my buddies more than for myself.

I started as a skier but then tried snowboarding. And now have fell inlove with the sport. I feel that skiing is easier to learn on some basis. Snowboarding is harder and takes pactice as does any sport. But i feel that you get more that a thrill from snowboarding then you do when skiing. But all in all its the person you ask and what they prefer.
