There aren't many opportunities to ski, but I remember a very interesting phenomenon. Beginners always control their speed, afraid of losing control. Experts, on the other hand, know how to use gravity and inertia to turn downhill into an enjoyment. What's the difference? Courage is very important, and equipment is equally crucial. Good skis, protective gear, and equipment give you the confidence to speed up and try steeper slopes. Without these, even with talent, you're only able to stay on beginner trails.
