The weather this Saturday is warm. It stays at near zero, the snow is slightly melting over lunch.
The session runs by Anne on half cab.
Focus:
- Half cab, aka front side 180
- The transition of edge is done by jump and rotation (180 degree)
- The transition (the jump) is happened at the point during turn initialization
- During turn, the upper body is turn toward the direction of the turn. The hip and the board then follow (with a pivot).
- In Half cab, the upper body rotation occurs as well with extension. However, instead of pivot and flex, the rider jumps and rotate
- It lands on the other edge and continue down the hill
Exercise/Drill:
- Ride Switch!
