The weather is holding in a low minus. The runs are turning icy while we did not get any new snow.

Benoit explaining how to go through roller ez10 been cool

Benoit runs a session of mixed tricks on Saturday. We starts having fun doing switch top-gun. I follow another instructor down the hill switch... mostly. Then we rip some tornado turns down the hill. We continue rolling off rollers trying to absorb and stay contact on snow. Last, but not least, we invade slalom course before the skiers close the course. razz

Sunday we have the honor to have Ezio joining us. We tried to improve our craving turns
- We focus on early pressure
- In order to improve our craving, we were trying to pivot /steer earlier. However, we continue to flex into our turn later. This put a lot of pressure on the edge, result into slipping.
- A early flexion allow prolong, gradual pressure apply throughout the turn.
- If flexion is started on the fall-line, it's already too late. It should starts before that.
- Extension and flexion should be integrated into anticipation.
- Driving into the turn with shoulder, as flexion occurred.
- Anticipate with extension.
