Maybe Naru is right. Omi isn't sure if it'll actually work or not, but it's worth trying, right? Assuming he doesn't also fall out of the simulator... that would be embarrassing. But he can't be that bad, can he? It's not like he goofs the beginner slopes. Maybe he just tries to push himself too hard to keep up with everyone else, and he should stick to the intermediate courses a while longer.
