What are you talking about? Drew can rip it up and I'd love to ski with him. His form looks great and is fine for skiing wind blown fluff, soft cordorouy, powder and cornices. It wouldn't work so well on bulletproof, blue ice like we have back here, but he doesn't have to worry about that out there. I too, skied my whole life(40 years), including growing up ski racing all over the northeast and in college along with guiding backcountry tours outside of Jackson Hole and Grand Targhee.
I do agree about Brady's form though. He needs to stick to the blues and greens and keep his skis on the ground...at least while he plays QB for NE.
re-read. My only criticism of Drew was his skis are a little close at times for today's skis. I have a similar background and raced too. I'll stand by that one minor critique.
A group of my friends and I rented a chalet in the North Conway area for many years in the 70's. At the time we could get a beautiful place for about 5K for an entire winter with enough room for ten of us. Some of the guys would live up there but I'd only use it on weekends. I went skiing (if you want to call it that) twice in eight years but damn did I have a blast.
