Ski Tip

Here is a tip to help getting your skis back on after binding release from a crash.  Now everyone knows it is necessary to orient the skis perpendicular to the fall line and snap in, however the natural tendancy is to attempt to snap into the uphill ski & then struggle to balance to get into the downhill ski.  Since it is always easier to snap into the uphill ski, try the following: 1) Set the skis in opposite directions perpendicular to the fall line. 2) Snap into the uphill ski. 3) Turn 180 and snap the other foot into the uphill ski.  Now both feet can snapped into the uphill ski which is much easier.
