Preferred skill level is low intermediate and above. The class will be held Saturday and Sunday afternoons, until they kick us of the hill. On Saturday we will work on carving skills, maintaining a quiet upper body and getting used to fast skiing under control. In the evening we can discuss boots - skis - poles, etc. On Sunday there will be a course set up and we will work on how to pick a line, when to turn and how to most effectively use our body to negotiate the course. Individual attention will be given to each participant. If the snow is really good we might take some time out to whoop it up in the deeps. To register click on Intro to Carving
