A major apology to Rock'in Ron for omitting him as a charter member of the "Father Phil and the Twenty Somethings". This group's main purpose was to ski like hell in JH and a minor in "Wearing Out LP". They accomplished both goals.

The sleeper awakes! After 15 days on skis, it's starting to come back. I envy those who had the foresight to see HH early in the year. You did not waste days on skis as I did. I'm doing a racing clinic and on the first day got some great feedback about body positions. There is a gap between how I skied and how I want to ski. As much as I tried in Jackson, free skiing in new snow there is counterproductive to fixing technique. Don't get me wrong, the time on skis is really important, but, I (speaking only for myself) need to get better at basics.

For the past two ski days, I've worked mostly on Harb drills on green level trails. It's coming nicely. Need to get a retest with the big guys, Phil, Ron and Gary.
