Skiing with Friends
Skiing with friends is a lot more fun than skiing alone. Being a lone in a place where there are hundreds of people is not exciting. The average skier skis for over three hours. This does not sound fun right? It does not even have to be friends, family, like cousins and brothers, is fun to be with as well. Going down a slope solo is not an option in a place as big as Seven Springs. Having your buddy right next to you makes time go faster and smoother.
When going to Seven Springs there are hundreds and hundreds of people skiers do not know. I like to go with my cousin and a group of friends. My cousin is a fun person to be around and it is a plus that we are the same age. We always try to do better than each other, but while goofing around. Having someone to talk to on the lifts and going down the slopes makes the trip exciting. Spending time with family is not something I do often, but when ski season comes around you can bet that I will be with my cousin every time I go out. When one of us wrecks it can be really funny because we make a joke about it. If I were by myself I would just be embarrassed with no smile on my face.
As well as going with my cousin I like to be with a group of friends. A couple of my friends ski, so we try to go together as much as possible. With friends we learn off of each other and get better and better. Having double the people doubles the fun. I enjoy being on the mountain and spending time with friends and family. Being a lone is not too exciting because there is nobody to talk to in a big place.
