I've known for the past few years that if i keep skiing the way i do im going to have knee surgury....I mean im completely fine with that but is that the truth? Will the majority of us have knee problems if we keep launching ourselves off of 50 foot jumps and hitting cliffs? Im hoping the answer is NO but im not going to ski any less hard if hte answer is YES.

 
if u get in shape your knees will be a lot more durable for the season, i ran cross country this past year and kept playin' soccer through the winter and had no problems with my knees, skiing still cant be good for them, but its less bad if ur in shape

 
alot of people including me wear knee braces.

i think the only knee problem joined with skiing is laterall movement, is that true?

The mushrooms and Italian sausage are rough, but the sauce is deliciously soothing. I blow my load in seconds. As you leave the bathroom, I exit through the front door....

The only thing that's toast of Warren Miller's, is his bread.

one factor pertaining to knee injuies is a strength imbalence of the quads and hamstring/glutes. Biking is one of the few things that will not only strenghting your hams and glutes but the muscles and tendons of the knee. Also when hucking your carcass off a cliff or table, landing square is critical otherwise your knees absorb more of the impact which wears away at the cartalige and tendons, which increases the chance of injury.
