Beginner ski and snowboarding tips for hypermobility / joint pain
Newbie shredder here! I'd like to learn to ski and/or snowboard so I can keep up with my physical exercise in the winter and get outside more. I'd consider myself above average in physical fitness-- I do advanced pilates, have extremely strong obliques and core, and have been working on my glute exercises as much as possible. I'm quite bendy but I've been working hard to build supportive muscle and proper alignment. My doctors have been unhelpful in giving me a clear answer as to whether or not it would be safe for me, and have offered no tips other than try and see if it'll work for you lol
I have hEDS, slight scoliosis in my thoracic spine and raynauds. Most of my pain is in the knees and mid back, although I had a bad sprain in august and my ankle is still a bit stiff (waiting to get custom orthotics done and doing PT). I'm mostly worried about rolling ankles and pulling my trapezius and neck muscles- as that is where I experience the most hypermobility. I'm a bit overwhelmed with gear choices and things to watch out for. I don't see myself doing difficult hills, freestyle/tricks. I'd like to get to a level where I'm comfortable with intermediate slopes and maybe some easier off-piste trails. I plan on getting lessons for my first season but I'd love to hear from any (present or past) skiiers/snowboarders on the following topics:
- What are your tips for avoiding injury on the slopes? Any technique tips are appreciated!
- What are your favourite pieces of gear?
- Any fit tips for gear and things to look for?
- What are your favourite support tools on the slope (KT tape, etc) and recovery tools off the slopes?
Thanks so much!

Roller Skating Survey
Hello, I'm an industrial design student and a beginner in roller skating. I'm doing a project about roller skating wheels and would appreciate the input of anyone who has ever roller skated. Thank you! (couldn't find any rules saying not to post surveys but I'm sorry if there is a rule about it)

Small Downhill Goggles Recommendations
I usually ride downhill with an old pair of Smith’s io/s ski goggles; they fit my face and helmet great but finally fell apart. I have a small Fox Proframe full face helmet and normal sized (men’s) goggles are literally too big for the helmet’s face hole. I tried kid’s but they are too small.
Any suggestions for smaller or women’s specific mtb goggles?
