Windchaser

For me it had nothing to do with agility. It was pretty much the things in your dream - not being able to choose the speed or difficulty level I felt comfortable with and being cut by more advanced skiers all the time - I was simply scared I'd be run over or fall and afraid I'd be left behind by my family/class.

Crosscountry skiing was fine with me, though. (And I was never forced into it.)
