thinking, "I would love to ski, but
I’m not in very good shape." No
problem. When it comes to skiing,
your fitness requirements are
directly related to the type of
skiing you wish to do.

If you’re skiing on a gentle
slope, it requires very little physi-
cal effort; whereas moguls, deep
snow or steep terrain are quite
demanding. The advantage of

majority of skiers.

For those who have never skied
or don’t remember the last time
they skied, lessons are definitely in
order. The Shames ski school has

from rank beginners to those more
experienced skiers who'd just like

that hasn’t been skied on for
awhile, have it checked at your
local ski shop. Remember, a little
thought before you proceed onte
the slopes will ensure that you get
the most enjoyment from this fast

growing sport.
