- Well, I had the hardest fall ever last Sunday.
- I bent my Volkl P10's :(. Are the bent skis repairable, and
- is it worth repairing? Or once they are bent, they will bend
- again easily?
-
- I was skiing through slush, changing from one foot to another,
- and all of a sudden on one turn, the slush pulled me away from
- the direction that I was aiming for. I had the hardest fall ever.
- And bent my skis:(. Then I was told I have to use both skis in those
- conditions. I guess I want to know, how the hell you can turn with
- both skis? Does that mean that I would have to do less unweighting
- on the uphill ski? Or unweight it early in the turn and weight it
- right away?
