I know it can be annoying waiting for the noobs but it always makes me think back to when that was me. I can remember struggling and having people drop in next to me, seemingly getring anxous and just going for it. Still 30 some years later I can still remember all my lessons om the slope. I remember being 8 years old and the instructor losing me one morning. It was a pretty traumatic experience as a kid on the slopes, until I learned how to ski it all. Like the instructor said, call it. When your ready your ready.

Go that way...very fast...if something gets in your way...turn! Simple

Videos like this are exactly why we need Dislikes back, youtube.

also people have speculated about what is the steepest angle possible to ski....at how many degrees is it still a) possible for the slope to hold snow, and b) possible to hold an edge.... I guess if you huck a 100 ft cliff that's kinda like skiing a 90 degree slope, lol, or if you straight-line some insanely steep chute, then holding an edge isn't really an issue, but the fact that people can actually hold an edge on that side-wall is really amazing It looks to be waaay beyond 60 degrees and closer to 80 degrees...it exceeds the steepness where I would've thought it's impossible to control speed, but I guess that fact that's it's got some ruts, actually gives the ski's a little bit more to bite into...
