I wrote my previous post about debating between kids ski lessons and self teaching before I actually skied with Big E. now that I have I take back any doubt I had before. Get your kid ski lessons! His improvement was jaw droppingly amazing. He could stop, turn a little, go fast, go slow, and he only fell three times on the whole run. This is light years beyond where he was. Go Big E! Oh and a big thank you to the makers of Edgy Wedgies! They help a ton.
