My 4th week of skiing ever. Although I am doing fine getting down blue and red slopes without too many issues, my in-laws are waiting for me at the bottom of the slope. 'It's nice to have someone wipe out every now and again', they say laughing. And sure enough, right in front of where they're waiting for me - the slowest of the bunch - there's a little patch of scraped-off snow, revealing some icy base. I brake, I skid over the patch, I hit the entire group, and crash into them. All 7 of them go down as dominos.
From now on, they are not mocking me for crashing. From now on, they fear me.
That's how you handle in-laws!
This was in 2011. Since then, they've become my ex-in-laws (nothing to do with this incident or with skiing).
