Title: Both kids are SLALOM skiing!!! Too Cool!!!
Post by: Joel on August 03, 2011, 05:37:08 PM

We got both kids up on slalom skis last weekend!!  Delaney figured it out first and skied the entire lake before letting go of the handle. Kelly was not about to be out-done by a GIRL...  He got up after three tries and immediately started crossing the wake...  "Just like Dad!!"    ;D   Time to sell the dual skis - we are from now on a "Slalom ski family" per my son Kelly  :)

Don't sell the old pairs, you need them to teach others, and a step-off ski?? Somewhere in our dads garage are my original red skiis that I learned on in the sixties, dozens of kids & generations learned how to ski with those!
