We actually catch a couple of small ones every so often

This is a Bristish Columbia Dolly Varden or as they call them up there a Bull Trout. They take big streamers and they also chase big fish. We usually catch and release two or three a season that size.

Good day PMTS'ers. Looking forward to Mt.Hood ski camp this summer. I have been working on PMTS movements and would like to know if I'm progressing in the right direction. There was 4-6 inches of new snow that day so it might be hard to see much. Thanks for all replies bad or otherwise. :oops:

Hey Kevy,

Nice job, my son would love your moves in the park. I'll send him the link.

This is my first post... but I wanted to share - so here it is:
www.visitcanaan.com & look for PHOTO COVERAGE.
If skiing is your thing, this is surely the season.
We have covered Tele, Alpine, Parks and much more.
Those "crazy" Level III's Telemark instructors surely give me a workout!

Could I get some MA feedback on this skier? He is a friend looking to improve

Hi Ebbie,

Your friend needs to work on his tipping mechanics. He is getting it done with gross movements involving the hips and upper body. For example, in this picture, he is dumping his hip: http://www.flickr.com/photos/46905252@N ... otostream/. In the next picture you can see the inclination and it is even more noticable in the picture after that (I'm referencing your photo stream).

The first thing that he needs to do is narrow his stance. His current width is greatly contributing to his need to use large muscles to get through transition. Once his stance is narrower, work with him on the same stuff we did at camp. Start with static tipping and have him focus on tipping from the feet. While you are there show him how his lack of free foot management will make it harder for him to tip (he needs to be holding it back--see: http://www.flickr.com/photos/46905252@N ... otostream/). Also, make sure he understands both that you need to be flexed to tip and that if you forcibly extend the stance leg, it will lock up and prevent further tipping. Have him try tipping downhill on a slight slope (this would be a good time to introduce counter balance). Progress to tipping garlands and RR turns.

I can't tell from the pictures whether he's flexing appropriately at transition, but if not, boot touches are the ticket. Since he has weak CB, do the version where you touch both knees at neutral and then raise the inside hand once you get the inside ski engaged.

Once he's starting to tip, go back to counter balancing. Double pole drag would be a great drill for him. Remind him to focus on keeping the *outside* pole grounded--if he can do that, he will be CBing appropriately. He should incorporate that drill into his free skiing for a while.

After that, go do some two-footed releases with him. That would be a good time to talk about counter acting as you stress the starting and ending positions for the drill. Once he's got that, move on to linking them to develop the bullet proof short turn. Really have him focus on aggressive flexion, tipping, and pullback of the inside ski.
