Name one unusual talent you possess: I can water-ski, wakeboard, and kneeboard, which are really just snowsports on water.
What would you say to someone not involved in snowsports to encourage them to try skiing or riding? “There’s no better feeling than whizzing down the mountain, riding up a lift, and hanging with some really awesome people. Plus, snow doesn’t hurt as much as the ground if you happen to fall down.”
