Night session for me tonight if I can get my x-mas shopping done this afternoon.

I'm out. I might be back on Tuesday depending on the bump situation.

 

[Madroch]

If it's your last opportunity to ski for a while, why not go anyway? You could always run mogul drills down Gunny...

I think they just forgot to list it.

Terrain Open
Total Trails/Runs: 15

They were bombing it all day yesterday and probably into the night. If it's not open right now, they have to be close.

Then he can do moguls drills on Stinger....

True. The website doesn't say it, but the snow phone says that Gunny is open today.

I'll probably still go. errr, I need to learn some mogul drills before I can do 'em? Any suggestions? Fischers are shop bound for a badly needed tune (the damage from SB was a little beyond my limited tuning skills- particularly as to the edges and one nice core shot), so I won't be "cruising".

Maybe I'll try to find a small comfy jump and see if I can't work on air a little, it needs it.

 

[Greg]

Short tight turns, quiet upper body, head up, hand position. That's about as complex as I make it. There are probably other actual "drills" you can do, but I like to have fun when I ski too.

 

[MrMagic]

gunny is open, bumps are gone, very windy, lots of stupid pinecones on the trail

 

[mondeo]

Javelin turns - short/medium radius turns only on the downhill ski, uphill ski lifted and pointing downhill across the down hill ski.
