John (New Jersey, morning), Brenda (Odessa, afternoon). Crazy day, winter for sure, some sun, some periods of blizzard (I liked the blizzard, storm skiing), three inches of new by day’s end, cold feet (yeah some, but worth it). John in the morning working on inside ski release and steering, butt in the chair, more flex in ankles and knees, completing the turn with strong leg steering, tip before steer, getting off the hard edge, two ski pressure (all the way from initiation through finish), hockey slides/stops. Brenda in afternoon, no teaching, not one word, all skiing the new powder, trees, T-bar, White Crown, No Name, B-50 line, Meadow, Toilet Bowl, some fresh tracks every run – the essence of skiing, what it’s all about, takes years to get to the 9 level, what a journey, never ends.



Yep. Sounds like my mom!
