antimo skiing 2-28-10 (1 year old)

This is the second or third weekend we took antimo skiing. He is doing great here, his first run he was like jelly, and I had to hold him up like a puppet for half of it...Slowly but surely we progressed from dangerously having him infront of me and between my legs to ripping like this with no hands at times...I'd ask him if he would let my hands go and if he did I'd gain on him and have him catch me while coaching him on what to do with his feet and body to get his skis to react and IT WORKED...by the end of the year (three weeks later) he was doing complete runs with no hands, only coaching from the side. I can'ty imagine a 1 year ild doing much more than that because they simply don't have the awareness of when to turn, stop, or slowdown. CHEERS

This is awesome. I have a 2 1/2 year old daughter and I was looking to take her skiing here in New Jersey. I was wondering where you were taking your child skiing or where you would recommend. I was planning on going this week

Thank you!
