Super fun powder day, 1.5 hrs of skiing soft piles in lowe vis, but i had a great time. Rustler 10 are great in soft snow if get them on edge and pressure tips
Women's clinic was great today, main tip was to keep chest up and keep quiet upper body in the bumps, less jerky movements and don't get low. Engage the outside leg and get on the outside leg quickly.
Women's clinic today, did pole plant practice, slow controlled turns to get down on the outside leg, did side slipping and stopping with edges drill. I need to keep more upright, chest up, still struggling with that. Talked about angulation and inclination, making sure body faces down the hill all the time open your hips for angulation
Skied groomers in the morning because it was firm under the one inch of powder, dust on crust, then when things warned up I skied bumps off Prospector gully, some South Face stuff and skied North Face twice.
Took it very easy, mostly groomers, some easier bump runs and then went on the Bear Cub chair to do some drills like one-legged drills, falling leaf, pivot slips and skied backwards for a bit
Great day for women ski clinic, worked on pressing into the shin with the downhill leg and pressure on the outside ski for edge hold. I got feedback to keep chest up more, so stand taller so feedback I got before. Great groomer skiing in the morning on the corduroy, skied until almost 5, it was great times.
Fun few hrs in the sun, skied groomers really fast with a friend and some portions of south face as well as bumps before Gail's gully.
Kept my boots loose at the start then tightened them later and that worked well.
I was tired after Sunday skiing so only skied a few hrs, mostly groomers and some easier bumps. The sunny weather was nice, I did overtighten my boots so was a little unhappy about that.
Fabulous day in the sun, skied North Face which was an adventure, but made it down ok without falling. Bumps felt really good south Face was fun and the face under the lift and gully Gail's bumps was gret, the extension/absorption is really coming together and the short radius turns, still side slip through tight spaces sometimes.
Great few hours at JF, my boots were adjusted with padding on the forefoot and i got laces to hold upper part of the liner and it felt great. Loved the new adjustments
