I don't think it could have been explained any better.
BTW you say you ski the North Wet.


The *whole* NW. More the east north west now, for the
quality of the snow, and the scary wilderness, old times
atmosphere factors.

when can I get you out here to the Seattle area to do some turns, and

maybe
have you give my second year*skiers a lookover and a tuneup?
I'll pick up your ticket /lunch and beer.


You're more likely to catch me in Canada, Wyoming, Idaho
or Montana this year. But, the beauty of this system is, you
*can* explain it in text or aloud, and people can use it.

For more experienced skiers, you can teach to the mechanics
of skiing.

The real trick comes in watching the skier and figuring out
what's wrong. Are they skiing with their shoulders, hands
falling back, leaning to the outside, or inside too far? Are
they rotating all the way through the turn? Could they
use more flexion and extension, can they steer effectively?

Etc. But, when people have the magic turns framework, they
can do it. I know of a ten year old (eleven this year) who
teaches magic turns and makes skiers out of beginners.

He's starting to pick up on the mechanics of the ski, and
how to help more advanced skiers by teaching to them.


I'm thinking you totally missed the person to person hey how ya doing
wanna do some in person type interfaceing that means drink beer, not..

Reading how to teach / learn is like masturbating compaired to real sex.
it just doesn't get it done.
my kids will continue to take professionel lessons by some of the best i've
seen.

If you would like to see how *you* messure up to the real INSTRUCTORS come
on out and do an evaluation.
and be evaluated at the same time.

Till then keep on keeping on.
no face time. no value.
