I was told I risk paralysis from even a simple fall it's that bad. It is what it is Dave, I had my day, zero regrets, left it all on the table for 50 plus years. From 8 years old at ski camp in the Berks getting my gloves ripped from a tow rope to hitting un marked woods at Berkshire Basin at 13 to hundreds of days at literally every NE ski area its been the balls. Enjoy it while you can and go hit some big hills in March
