Of course it may be that skiers are mentally inacute to begin with. Relying on yourself to "notice" a change has been shown to be an exceedingly UNreliable assessment method. There have been numerous experiments in altitude chambers demonstrating that. The subjects were not aware of their errors in, for example, performing simple mathematical computations, until they were returned to sea level pressure and could view what they had written.
