The weather continues to stay warm. Actually, it was not as warm as previous day, snow is not melting while it's still warm.
The session is run by Ezio, focus on basic carving with flexion and extension.
Focus:
- Turning more effectively and smoothly
- Anticipation again play an important role, which is also a requirement for CASI L2
- Eventually, the shoulder should incorporate with the knee and board to act together
Problem:
- Timing is off when try to turn rapidly on roller hill
- Bounce off the snow on top of roller
Solution:
- Slow down
- Flex to absorb the slope
- Extend on top of roller
- Get the rhythm
Exercise/Drill:
- Basket ball turn, pump the after pivot when flexion
- Be sure the "pump" is happen on an axisal of upper body, not just the hand (which will end up unequal pressure on the board)
