Month: April 2014

Kai, Sally, Debs, Joelle, Jenny, Donna, Amy, Barbara, Ernie (the token guy) – warm day, mild wind, some winter snow, some slush. Focus: ‘continuous motions’ … arms and hands … hips (never got to the flex/extend part of it). Pick this thread up next winter. Thank you all for a great season … many changes to ridding old and acquiring new movement pattersn. Happy summer!!!!

Laurel, Joe, Olive, Pat, Mitzi – no picture (what was I not thinking) … Tbar line, Horseshoe Bowl, Boundry Chutes, White Crown … completing the turn, early edge engagement, counter/tip with hips, soften the new inside leg and let it flex. Last session of the day, sad for that but ready for the summer sun. Thanks for a great season!

Kai, Bruce, Leslie, Sam, Caroline – focus on arm position and pole plants, purpose of the pole touch, center of mass cross over, skis arcing away from the body after an early and simultaneous edge change. Outlaw, Beyond Bowl, Bliss – still some winter snow around. Have a great summer to all!

Joelle, Donna, Kathy, Kai, Meow, Caroline – focus: ealry edge change. Rustler, Debs Alley (Death Alley – that still cracks me up), Beyond Bowl. Engage the ski early and high in the turn, let it arc through the apex then get off the edge and start setting up for the next transition.
