run gates
run more gates-- watch other racers & talk to racers
run gates-- thinking of one correction
when you start to get tired go free ski
repeat process next ski day

By the time you have repeated this process 4 or 5 times you will have an
idea of what equipment would work best. Ski selection is based on how
course is set on the terrain and how well you ski. Real race ski's can
be very unforgiving. Take any race training you can get.
Where are you planning to run NASTAR?
