Answer 2

sorry, actually I have never went skiing before.

je porte les batons, un coupe-vent, une tuque quand skie.

is this good?

Answer 3

Sorry, not really.

It seems that there is a little ambiguity here. Porter usually means wearing (clothing). It could also mean bring with oneself, in which case the "batons" for the ski would be OK.

It is therefore possible that you would bring with you the "batons", but you would also bring the skis with you.

Your answer should include either equipment or clothing, but not both, because "porter" cannot have both meanings in the same sentence.

Mme Sra is in a better position to clarify or confirm this one. Sorry.

Answer 4

quand je skie.

Sra (aka Mme)

Answer 5

je porte les batons, un coupe-vent, une tuque quand je skie

or je porte les batons je skie

Answer 6

What I meant was either

Je porte les bâtons et les skis quand je skie. OR
Je porte un coupe-vent et une tuque quand je skie.

This way, it would be either equipment or clothing, but not both in the same sentence.
