Sorry for leaving the post abandon quite some times..

Some video taken during my skiing session…enjoy…and you can laugh of course.

1.First video, I was trying to start moving…holding the poles and wearing boots..and the ski first time in my life! (I was not moving at all…boooo)

2. Second video, my first trial…it worked..and I did not fall. But my posture looked damn disgusting…after the first trial…I like it and keep trying….

 

3.Third video, Just to tell you falling down not really hurting me at this point.

4. Fourth video, skiing in the night session..and everything was fine.

Just after about 4 hours of self learning skiing…My friends persuaded me to take the lift and ski down the hills…and…As you can see..this was the slope we challenge, the lift I was saying might be too small to be seen from the picture. So basically, we “ski” down from the Starting point to the ending point. ” “ meant something in paragraph rite?haha….the slope was quite deep and we were actually falling down from the Starting point till the Ending point. It was too fast and too scary when we tried that and bear in mind that we did not take any course and the lessons were all learnt from youtube….To slow up ourselves, the only way was to fall down. And I can proudly tell you that I have tried any kind of the falling position throughout the “journey” like what you can see in a movie.Haha….and this time, falling down really meant something. Our whole body were aching and some bruise on our legs and buttocks in the following night..

So here are the 4 warriors…

From the left, Chun Wei, Chee Min, Yushu and Me…

Overall, I did enjoy skiing and falling these times. But my advice to all, is better to get a short course for your first time as it was really dangerous when I think back.

Oh ya..the boots were quite heavy but quite similar to our platoon boots where most of my secondary school St John Friends might experience before.

It was really nice to ski and I wish I could plan and have more chance to do that.

Attended a conference last month which held in a Ski resort, Phoenix Park. Therefore, had my first skiing experience to share it here.

The day before the presentation…On the ski resort with some people skiing behind.

I was doing my presentation on ICACT 2008.

However, just after I did my presentation…Hoho…time for the main purpose for submitting research paper for this conference.

Equipped myself with poles,boots,ski..and saw my glass?I bought it just for skiing.

Another snapshot..

5 of us who joined the trip this time..skiing in the night

And Miss Nithia, who taught me one subject during my Bachelor Degree in MMU.She came all the way from my Malaysia for the conference.

Eventually, this resort was also the shooting place for Korean Drama, Endless Love.

Poster from the drama..

Story board from the drama..

and actors and actress from the drama….

Some scene..

This resort was nice and beautiful.

Scenery thru the windows of our room.

That’s all for now..will upload more photos and videos as well on the next post to share my skiing experience.

To be continued….
