Thanks J and Lynn...So Lynn, maybe next year you could treat yourself to Portillo followed by a trip to another nation in need....NICE!

Skiing sping snow or any snow during our summer is truly a great opportunity.....and like a drug you can't do without!

J....a lot to be said about working on tactics or skill sets. I know you're a big believer as well. Pays off in huge dividends when conditions get more complicated.....hug e confidence boost.

Making turns with Joe and Nancy I know their skiing improved too by weeks end.? What was fun was that at the end of each day and with only 11 in our group, we'd meet to discuss the days events and what we got out of the day.  We'd meet in the morning to review video and discuss technique and indvidual goals. The approach was open and light hearted but with total focus on trying to meet each of our clinics goals.

There were lots of laughs and teasing of the coaches which they took in good humor. We had a lovely lady from Canada who never skied before and after 1 hour with Chino, she was making parallel entry turns. Another couple of hours between Chino and John, she was skiing blue terrain with great turns. She was one happy lady for sure.

Now the wait for the snow to fall. My skis got rocked up pretty good and now are repaired best I could without a base grind...they too are ready to slide and glide...the JJ"s.... they still await their call for steep and deep! I look forward to that day to apply some way cool skills to pilot the big boards!
