I manage to walk but I did find that with Nordic skiing if you start to think about what you're doing you'll be picking yourself up out of a snaw drift. I also learned to ride a bicycle at an early age. When I needed to get a motorcycle endorsement on my license I found if you took a class the state testing was waived. During the class they explained the physics of counter-steering and how you're really pushing the bars in the opposite direction of your intended direction. Armed with all that new knowledge I damn near killed myself. I always thought you just looked where you wanted to go and it happened.
