Essential Elements meets every Saturday from 10:00 AM until 3:00 PM, 12/17/11-03/24/12, excluding 12/24. Participants are encouraged to attend every session to maximize learning and group consistency.
AGENDA:
- Boots - Start the season strong and comfortable by getting a ski boot evaluation. We will cover proper fit, stiffness, alignment, and canting. Basic boot adjustments and orthotics will be available at an additional fee.
- Skis - Are you skiing the proper ski for your ability? For the snow conditions? Are your skis a good length for you? Are your skis properly tuned and waxed? A proper ski evaluation will ensure a positive experience.
- Ski Tuning - Receive hands-on training tuning and waxing skis. You may currently have this work done by a shop, but it is good to know what is happening to your boards.
- Basic Skills - Learn why mastering basic skills is so important to improving your skiing at all levels.
- Conditions Of The Day - Conditions of the day play a big part in any day’s agenda! Mac will take advantage of the conditions to achieve maximum benefit.
- Training Skis - These 130 cm skis may be short but they ski like a longer ski and will allow you instant feedback on your turn technique.
- Video Analysis - One of the best tools to help you improve your skills.
- Gate Training - This is not racing, it is training on courses that are set for a safe, fun, learning experience.
