I've been learning to ski, and I've been for about 10 hours in total (I live in France where I can ski in a short drive from my house). I'm mid 30s and I've become someone who can do turns, but I have so many moments where I fall, lose control and I feel scared.
After a weekend trip with a load of expert skiiers, I feel really disheartened, and I feel palpably angry about the thought of skiing, and the frustration. Rationally, I know I've not been for very long.
Has anyone else got tips on how to get past that stage, and gone from feeling fear to actually enjoying it? To get past the fear and frustration stage.
(PS, I just posted this in chat before realising there is a ski topic)
