First new skis in 8 years, brought by Santa. These skis are the closest thing to flying for me. They are fast, carve perfectly and man do I love them. Sometimes I think they were made just for me. The other day I skied pure ice, a black diamond that had bodies everywhere. I thought for sure this trail would claim me, but NOPE. I had my trusty Passions on and they brought me safely down that ugly hard pack/ice. Wow. Worth every penny.

Black Diamonds Really Are a Girl’s Best Friend
What: First Annual Mother-Daughter Ski Day
How: A complete and total blast.
Friday I let my almost 11-year-old daughter play hooky and come skiing with me. It was just the two of us, no boys allowed. The color of the day was black, as in black diamonds. The girl wouldn’t ski any other trail, except for the blue warm up run. Temperature was 11 with 15 mph winds. We giggled, sang silly songs… and oh yeah, TORE UP THE MOUNTAIN. Pure heaven. Definitely going to be an annual event.
