Sick of all the people with the flashest, latest, high-tech skiing gear, jamming all the slopes? If you are, you should seriously consider to turn back to the roots – And I kind a mean it literally.

And you don’t need to have running shoes – some good old mountain boots will do the job just as well. Much more important are your coordination skills anyway. Trust your equipment and most important, trust yourself. Some people reckon, being pissed at least helps the latter one.

Then get ready and go for it. On a side note, jumping is a bit tricky as chances are high you will slip out of the strap.

And if you do fall… Stand up and try again and again and again…

The speed record that day was set by a woman. No fear, no light, no doubts.
