I'm in that group... I did skiing only for 6-8 years, then switched to snowboarding in 1994 and haven't gone skiing one time since.
 
Speed Skiing is probably the hardest to learn and most dangerous. Going over 100mph means almost any mistake will be your last.

i only been there once, i usually ski @ sierra-at-tahoe, seems less crowded, cheaper and just as good.

but it's all good, you don't have to drive that far, it's just there.

only if you slide into some trees

ive fallen at some pretty insae speeds doing Super G and DH, as long as you dont hit anything you are find and its actually kinda fun
 
Skiing can get u laid, if u decide to turn to snowblades 😉. Skiing is waaaay easier than snowboarding, but snowboarding is much better...
