I think it's alot easier if you've never ski'ed before.
For boots, check out REI.com They have deals on Salolon F20 or F22. Most of the people I know use them because they are pretty comfy.
yeah if you try to relate it to skiing while you are learning then youll be doing some nosedives.
i think i would still love skiing but i only board now because i think its sooooooo much less hassle than dealing with 2 skis and poles, etc. and the boots are way more comfy
rei is one of my favorite stores, not sure why i didnt think about that
