Chonghe, Chris, Laurel, Jenny, Diane, Betty, Olive, Paola, Mitzi – the Crazy 8s … last club day, where did that 10 weeks go … I am ready for summer, canyons and running – that being said I will miss these days of fun, leaning and good/challenging skiing. Still working on keeping the inside 1/2 of the body active all the way through turn completion (got to keep the hips aligned with the fee), fists between knees drill, flex to edge change and manage the ascending mogul, extend to create pressure though the shaping phase and maintain ski/snow contact as the mogul drops away. Hiked Peak 8 this morning, as usual a gale on top (would be weird not to have that), some challenging ‘stuff’ coming down the bowl and into upper Way Out … the ‘challenging’ stuff is just the best (have to use all the ammo in our bag of tricks). It’s been a great season – thank you! P1010779 P1010786
