Skiing is a sensory sport. Yet most ski coaching rarely talks about the senses involved - not the obvious ones, but the three body-reading systems running in the background of every run. In midlife, all three can change. Here is what the science reveals.

You've been cleared. You're back to everything else. But skiing is where the gap shows up – especially in midlife. Why medical clearance doesn't mean your body feels ready on snow – and what actually helps.
