		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160;&#160; Recently I wrote about skiing on ice and how I barely notice when I ski on ice. I remember seeing ice and mentally freezing (pun intended) and putting on the brakes. Skidding on ice is something best avoided. However, skiing in the opposite snow conditions can be equally challenging to the skidder. If you [...]]]></description>

I am not being figurative, I am being literal. Rarely are the runs solid ice from top to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most of the time we think of skiing in terms of movements over the horizontal, after all, we are essentially fastened to the slope by gravity, the need to stay in control, and fear of breaking bones &#038; body parts. However, our knees and legs can work our body in a vertical fashion. We bob [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In this diagram I highlight two forces involved in skiing. The force of gravity and the force normal (the force pushing back by the surface of the slope). However, this is an idealized situation and there are other forces that are assumed away. Why is it safe to assume them away and what forces are [...]]]></description>
