Today we practiced carved turns.

That's me today: ðŸ“đ http://e.pc.cd/jqtotalK

I'm not a racer, obviously 😅 I really enjoyed the first fresh snow from last night after a long time without any snowfall ðŸŒĻ

That's me beginning of 2023: 🎎 http://e.pc.cd/tTtotalK

We made some footage of my colleagues as well which was very helpful to compare our different styles (and mistakes ðŸĪŠ).

This is what it should look like: 🎎 https://www.snowsports.ch/startseite/ausbildung/ausbildungskurse/aspirant

I made some notes below, so I can work on these issues. Really looking forward to the training camp 💊 next week to improve these points.

Can you find out which video features which technique?

These are your basics:

This is where I'm at today:

Observe, evaluate, advise:

  • Forget the diagonal traversals, make slow turns, turn after turn
  • Make the inner ski slide on the snow as well

Ready for the next training course in January and excited what's to come next year 📈

  • you have only used skiing socks ðŸ§Ķ for an entire week 🗓ïļ
  • learning from scratch is sometimes easier than making progress in the things we know for so long already
  • cross-country skiing is actually fun ðŸ˜ē
  • you miss thinking behind the keyboard already
  • there are some excellent snowskate spots ðŸ›đ around town
  • rainy weather is only as bad as you talk about it
  • little kids ask better / more important questions than you do ❓
  • you only worked 10h a week, but you are more tired than after a 40h office ðŸ’ŧ week
