We went skiing today, and it was my first time to ski! I got up on the second try! It was fun! Later, I fell and forgot to let go, so I really gulped down some water.

And don't forget sunburns. Hands, legs, arms, and face are really pink! And that was with sunscreen stuff... :x <-- That's about how red I am.... Grr...

I've been skiing 3 times. I feel so middle class.

My brothers have both been 4, and one of them hasn't really mastered going forwards yet.

Don't forget the windburn - and get some goggles or cheap sunglasses (this is really just a ZZ Top reference). The glare from snow can blind you pretty quickly. Plus, goggles make you look more experienced and cooler.

Wait.. Are you talking about water skiing or normal skiing? (With snow)

I love to water skii, it's so fun, though I hate to hold to the arm thingy because it hurts after a while. Other than that, it rules, now, if only I had a boat and some skis.

Normal is skiing is not that fun, for the down hill, it's ok but cold, for crosscountry its boring and hot. Water skiing is much better. :P

I'm assuming you mean water skiing seeing as hopefully if you were snow skiing you wouldn't be swollowing water... and if you were, I'm afraid your in the wrong season.
Water skiing... would be fun if I wasn't so darn hydrophobic.

It doesn't take a lot of money - you can rent skis and get a lift ticket at a lot of ski resorts for under 40 bucks. It'll cost you only a little less to go to a baseball game, after everything is said and done, and twice that to go to a professional American football game.

Dangit, I keep thinking snow skiing.

Waterskiing can be done without skis at all. Lots of people do barefoot water skiing, although it's definitely generally regarded as more mannish.

I've been water skiing twice. It's a blast!! I wish I could really get good at it, but I haven't been in a couple years so I'm not that good.

I've never been waterskiing before.

Or snowskiing, for that matter.

Gone, forever.
