I am fortunate that I have ski-ied for more years than I can remember and have done ski-ing sound jobs, so it can be done.
I would say, as someone already has, keep your mixer higher for leg movement and that you are of a high standard when it comes to actually skiing, particularly if speed or higher gradient pistes are going to be involved i.e. it should be absolutely second nature. I would also say that a couple of runs without gear beforehand is a good idea to wake your mind and body up.
Otherwise, go have fun.
