Back from Skiing and still walking

I did take it easy. In the end I did 5ish days of skiing and only fell over the once.

I found it quite tricky to turn right as my left leg would drag slightly behind me. However I do think some of the technique I learnt last year help so I didn't just try and turn using my knee joint.

I stuck to Green and Blue runs and was going fine not staying out until I got tired until, on Wednesday I fell over while almost stationary. Just one of those over balances that happen on skis some times. I fell on my right side and just ever so slightly twisted my left knee (basically just the weight of the ski and the boot). At first it felt quite sore and I couldn't get enough
power through it (tried to push but nothing happened until I push down with my hand) to clip back into the binding. So I quit for the day.

Oddly enough walking around on it didn't hurt so I guess it's a slight pull on a muscle that you don't normally use for walking! I figure the general weakness of the knee made the twist worse than normal.

So I took it easy for the rest of the week, just a three hours on the Thursday on some green runs (actually bloody scared due to all the out of control beginners rocketing around) and took the Friday off to be a tourist and do some site seeing.

It was a good holiday and I glad to say that being able to ski properly again looks good.

Just have to wait until next year to give it another try...
