Ron,
All I can say is "I'm bummed that I was not there".

Your week reminds me of my "ski weeks" when I was new to skiing. In the old days, it was common to go to a resort and ski all day with the same instructor. I even did a couple of ski racing weeks with instructors who were past members of the US Ski Team. We all need corrections from an expert eye and repetitions to build in the new concepts. Trust the Force!

I remember seeing a pic Phil did at JH on my one good day last year and my hand remained way behind my body following a pole plant. Shocking, but living proof that I need to continue to develop. Garry, the grand, gray, technique guru was coaching me on this during our April visit to Holymount. Your good bud, HH, spends much time on hand position during the complete turn and on moving the hips much more forward over the boots, so, yes, there are common areas.

It's impossible to communicate all you learn in a week, be it in skiing or another development class. Hey, but next time, I might join you!

Mike
