Probably not if you do physical therapy right and work out your legs after youre cleared to do so. No reason why it would directly effect skiing because I'm pretty sure no ski season starts within the next three months, youll have plenty of time to recover.

thanks for the input, my nonextensive google research couldnt find anything about skiing and these kinda fractures

If you had pt then yes if you did nothing and fall on it again you will hurt it again.

Physical therapy

in between the tibia and fibula and heel bone, responsible for most ankle movment

Solid answer. You'll def. lose some leg strength. and flexibility. After therapy you'll have to continue to work to get back to where you were. But you sound motivated, seems like you'll be ready.
