Answer 1

You should totally follow your heart.

I know i did, and i didnt regret one moment of it.

If you get a trainer you could go pro.

just dont wait, follow your heart and go for it.

ill support you 100%

:D

Answer 2

You could always just go up with them and take a half day lesson

Answer 3

Go this year. It is great fun.

Go go go! go! Go Go!

You should go before the season ends or you will never improve!!!!

once you get good, it getts really good! XD

Answer 4

honestly, it will be considerably more fun if you go with someone at the same level as you (or even if worse if possible).  it's a lot more difficult to learn when you're chasing a bunch of buddies that are a lot faster and better than you are.

Answer 5

go for it you will pick it up aftera lil bit

Answer 6

Go this year, it's never too late or early to start.

Take a lesson for a morning and that will help you get going.  If your friends are trying to get you go on harder runs don't listen to them, just take a few hours and work on your turns on some green runs until you're comfortable.

Make sure you get the lesson the next time you go up.  The instructors at every mountain I've ever been to are fantastic at getting you up and running as fast as is possible for you.

A friend told me "when in doubt ride it out" so when you're learning and making turns don't fall over because you don't think you nailed the turn, just stay up and see if you can save it.

Have fun!!  I'm sure you'll be shredding in no time.
