Koley-Sara asked:


I started as a ski instructor today and I took out a 3 year old who has never skiied, she held on to the pole most of the time but she understood the concept of “wedging” but couldn’t really go off on her own. How long should it take for a 3 year old to learn?

Jodi Materna asked:


I’m a size 2X and can’t find a warm thermal ski jacket anywhere. I am not going skiing but need a warm coat for Alaska weather to visit my nephew and grandneices. I heard that the thermal omnitech feature in the Columbia brand ski jackets are the best but the stores I visited only sell XL as the largest. Woolen or down coats aren’t as warm as these omnitech ski jackets. Any recommendations?

DCPete27 asked:


I ordered size 19.5 (Mondo) ski boots. I want to buy skis that will fit. The bindings of the skis I want fit boots with a bottom ranging from 220-270 cm. Will these boots fit the bindings?
I appreciate your opinion, but want to make sure the skis will fit.

BTW — I don’t have extraordinarily small feet; they’re for my son.
