New snowboarding season finally get underway!

I am so happy to get 4 programs this year; Sat morning (beginner) + afternoon (intermediate), Sun morning (intermediate), and Thur night (intermediate). A lot of ride time w/ students. cool

Week 1 so foggy #1 Week 1 so foggy #2

Week 1 is so warm and foggy. I can't even see the top of the hill. I have a great group of beginners, and basic mobility went so well with the help of my 2 TAs. Sunday morning intermediate group is very skilled and present me a good challenge to bring them to a new level of riding.

week 2 training on Hegg #1 week 2 training on Hegg #2

Week 2 didn't start off smoothly as I have to shuffle students around, and I ended up with students that with somewhat wider skill level. But we managed to get up the hill and do some side-slipping, pendulum w/ a J-turn.

On personal training side, I have some runs w/ ez10 for some feedback on my riding. This year for sure I am riding better, but always some improvement to get closer to that perfect ride:
- more driving the turn w/ hips and knee
- watch for toe side lay back position (maybe some binding change)
- less sudden flex on turns, need to be more gentle
