Level 7, Intro to Bumps (well, everyone was already skiing bumps but that’s what we call it):Donna, Judy, Linda (our Aussie), Kathryn, Brian, Nancy and Pamella. Some drills (side slips, pivot turns, turns to a sideslip, pole balance, edge releases, garland skids with shape) – lots of bumps on Dukes, Upper 4 O’clock and Crescendo, anatomy of a bump, where to turn, flex/extend to manage pressure, use the skid to adjust line, maintain ski/snow contact and foot pressure, get a rhythm, come off the edge, patience. Progress for all, good job – this bump stuff is quite the journey … trip never over.
