Well put Gary.
I went skiing yesterday at Elk. Fresh snow on top of ice. By noon piles of semi moguls with ice between, even on the greens. All those nice drills and new skills from camp felt GONE!!
The new skis handled it well, but the skier needs work! Yes, a long road, always something new to learn.

make sure you take a few moments to compose your head at the top of the run and breath. I bang my pole against my helmet as part of my ritual. It's so easy to get knocked off your game. He really have to focus and remain calm, take each turn, one at a time. This seems to help. Remember, drills are good but there's no substitute for getting out there in "real world" conditions and just keep banging' away! You'll get it, I know you well enough to know this is just a challenge.
