Page (Colorado Springs), Camille (Denver), Gabe (Denver), Tatyana (New Jersey), Sarah (Chicago). Started out sunny, cold and snowy by end of day. Peak 9 and the blue runs. How to release with tipping of ankles/knees – CM crosser over the hips, tip to new edges then begin to shape, uphill arcs, hockey slides (need more practice here), hip rotation, balance poles, hands on knees, poles behind the back, initiate the turn with new inside ski (strange, huh?), speed control with friction and completing the turn, how to be in a strong position, getting off the hard edge with a wedge, open the turn up – don’t be so quick to get through the fall line.
