What are some exercises or general tips for avoiding ACL injuries?

Im relatively new to skiing and absolutely love it. I have about 10 ski days and am slowly getting better but One thing holding me back is being afraid of injury specifically ACL injuries since its such a long recovery process and seems so common with skiers. I did some spring skiing last time and caught so many edges on the slush and psyched myself out.

Are there any exercises or stuff i could do to lessen the chance of an ACL injury and are there any ski tips to know to also reduce injury risk?

So far ive been hittin legs in the gym hard and being very conscious about not trying to save falls or land awkward

How do i stay over my skis when i turn and pick up speed or do steeper terrain? My skis constantly shoot forward especially my inside ski

To be fair its only my 6th day of skiing but Im currently on a 10 day trip and im trying to get down basic parallels on greens but im just so clunky constantly fighting for my balance, at the end of turns i end ip on my heels and my tips go in the air, i constantly feel like im not in control of my skis. I know about forward lean and shin pressure but when i get on the mountain and do my turns i feel like IM being forced to my heels, cant get grip or control. On flatter terrain i csn do parallel but even on gentle green slopes this keeps happening to my esp to my inside legg

Has anyone used starlink at ski resorts for remote work? How were the speeds

I work remotely and need decent speeds. Im trying to make it so that I can work but still go skiing. Just wondering if anyone has also worked remotely at ski resorts or ski towns and were able to get solid speeds like 100-200 mbps.

I recently got into skiing and got about 10 ski days in, i work remotely and plan on renting a place in Utah or Colorado for the season and doing a TON of skiing. My question is what are good all mountain skis that are good for beginners- intermediates but that i also wont outgrow over the course of this season as i improve my skiing. I think Ill mainly be doing groomers as i learn but maybe get more into off piste towards the later part of the season.

Im 5 9 and 160 lbs, hit the gym pretty consistently too. Alot of people seem to love nordica enforcer 94 but dont know if itd be the best to start out on.
