so im taking my girlfriend skiing tomorrow, shes never been before and is nervous. any suggestions on what do to do with her?
 
i've heard from reliable sources, that skiing with your girlfriend will ruin skiing for you. leave her on the bunny slope and check back in on the hour
 
tell her your going to go to the bathroom in the lodge, run to your car, and drive away and never go skiing with your girlfriend again
 
skiing, as in laying between two guys while jerking them off? i dont know, she'd probably enjoy that but i dont know how you'd feel with your girls hand on a second dick..
 
Best possible thing you can do: get her a lesson. She'll learn some stuff that you probably won't be able to teach her about the basics (things that we don't even think about, let alone know how to teach), which will alleviate a lot of stress from both of you. For sure.
 
false! if she actually cares about you and is trying something that you do, she doesnt want to spend the day with some other dude teaching her so yu guys can talk about it later... if YOUR bringing her... YOU teach her, shes only doing it cause she knows you want her too, same with mine... im bringin her skiin tommorrow, she wasnt pumped at first, but shes getting pretty exciting, just ride behind her, hold her up and just ski, have her get the feel of even moving on skis lol if you sit 10 ft down the hill and say ok come here babe, shes only going to go the 10 ft then fall to stop... trust it, if you teach her, and she actually gets good, thats something memorable you did

I respectfully disagree. I would rather share the actual experience of skiing with her, than the experience of teaching her to ski. Let someone else teach her, and after she learns the basics, take her out to have her follow you around a learn a thing or two.

Teaching sucks.
 
i wish i could get my girl to ski... she hates it but can kinda ski... :/

any tips on getting her out there?? but i think it might just be a total flop

and i man, just dont let her get cold, dont let her fall, keep her happy and just have a good day, its not ALL about the skiing, its about enjoying the day. isnt that why we all ski? to have a good time, dont forget that
 
Just give her some solid tips and be encouraging. Tell her when she's doing something wrong, but be nice about it and tell her how to fix it. If she feels like you want to be there helping her out, and not just frustrated and annoyed with her, she'll have a better time. Also, don't try to overteach by like hovering over her and holding her hand all the time, she won't learn as fast, IMO. She'll figure it out within a couple hours hopefully, and then you can cruise some easy green and blue runs with her while she gets the hang of it. Before you know it she'll be out there shredding wiht you. I taught my girlfriend how to snowboard AND ski with no problems whatsoever, and now she rips. Just stay positive and have a good attitude about it.
 
TEACHING A GIRL YOU'RE DATING TO SKI IS A BAD IDEA, nothing will get done... unless you and her are both avidly serious about it.

so glad my gf can already do 3's and rails, even though I can't... lol
 
Bam, right here. Its a rule, you don't teach your significant other how to ski/board. Wanna know why? You're allowed to get frustrated with them. You have that type of relationship, whereas someone who does it as a job has to keep the upbeat attitude, and the encouragement. They can't snap and get annoyed with the person taking the lesson. It is much better to share the experience of moving on the hill, rather than flopping all over, "noooo I said to this THIS." blah blah frustration blahhhh. And don't say you wouldn't get frustrated, cause unless you're the nicest person to ever set foot on the hill, you will. I've been teaching for 10+ years. You just don't do it.

In addition (to save the rebuttal), that's not to say it isn't possible and it hasn't happened before. It can be done, and it can be done with smiles and laughs and a great day. But the odds are most likely to be against you.
 
this. i took mine skiing a few weeks ago and shes dying to go back up

if she can ice skate, which, being a grl i bet she can, just relate it to that.

if shes not a dumbass you can pretty much break it down how you ski, and show her, shell do what you do and then shell be golden
 
Be nice and don't try to force it along, it will take time, also, don't show up wearing twelve tall t's she will laugh and ask why you are wearing a dress
 
i guess maybe this is true, i think it depends on what kind of person you and her are.

me, i want to be a teacher, i like teaching, i like showing her things, i really enjoyed teaching her to ski, and i dont really get frustrated its just not how i am i guess

i spose if you arent like i am then teaching her might be a pain in the ass though
 
Seems this already happened, but I figured I'd lend some advice to those of you considering teaching the lady.
The majority of situations like this go bad. I have far too many friends who had their first and only experience with a boyfriend.
So, for those of you who insist.
1. Your girlfriend may cry. Be the most awesome boyfriend ever and some tissues with you.2. You may see a frustrated side of your lady you have never encountered before. Don't tell her it's easy, simply ask what you can do to make her experience better. 3. Do not bring anyone else with you unless they happen to be an instructor. You will be tempted to leave her and go out with your friends. This is a horrible idea. 4. Do not bring her on the lift for her first run. Make sure she is comfortable walking around on the skis first and practice falling and getting back up with her.5. Aim low. Tell her that your goal for the day is to get her comfortable taking the easiest chair lift. This should only take her the first 2 hours, but whatever, she will be stoked if she gets on a second lift. 6.If you haven't instructed before, the easiest way to learn to turn is for you to ski in front of her backwards and tell her to just keep her eyes on you, stay in a wedge and follow you. She won't even realize that she's turning.7. Make sure, absolutely sure, that you tell her to never ever try to user her poles to stop herself. The list of injuries caused by this is not a happy list. 8. If you occasionally wear a helmet, wear it and do her the favor of renting one. They are usually less than $10, it will make her feel a bit safer and it is best to start good habits straight off the bat.
I do not advocate teaching your lady to ski. I am a huge fan of ski school and instructed for 4 years. I think the absolute best thing you can do is get her equipment with her, sign her up for a morning lesson, spend 10 minutes with her showing her how to get in/out of the skis and walk around. Then leave her for an hour. She will be less nervous if you don't watch. Then when you know there are about 20 minutes left, do a lap of the chair they are on, ski up to her and tell her how awesome she is doing and say you will meet her at the bottom for lunch before you go back up with her. That will make you seem like the most awesome boyfriend ever.
The end.
 
If it's her first day then get her a lesson, but the second day you should definitely ski with her. By her first day she should be skiing greens efficiently.

I would probably hate my boyfriend if I taught him how to ski.
