Hey there, took an 18 year hiatus from skiing, back now that the kids (10-12) wanted to start skiing. Started last Jan and now about 6 trips in. Last time I boot skis on, they were Rosignol 201's, lol. Things have changed so I figured I should get my head in the game. Happy New Year!

Not all that much has changed since 2006 gear and technique wise. If you were skiing Y2K compatible gear before you stopped it will be easy peasy.. Goggles got bigger, helmets got more comfortable. Plant that seed, get the kids skiing, but make sure they decide for themselves when to take a break or sit out a day here and there..

Welcome back.

Everything is just exactly the same, only totally different.
