7th January 2004 Snowboarding: Les Arcs, France Wind Direction: NW Wind Stength: 10Kph Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: -2 to 5 Sea Temperature: Weather: Sun Max Speed: Distance Covered: am: Group lesson, enough is enough as regards the feet. Hired some boots & tried 'Flow' bindings. Halleluiah! Like riding in carpet slippers... well happy. Except for the fact I'll never wear my step-ins again, and new boots & bindings will set me back 400 Euro :-( A good, productive morning working on turns and stance. Most of the morning was spent at 1800. A good mix of exercises and riding. The high point was coming off a lift (I'm regular) to the left of one of the Gozoians, Alan, who is goofy. We both slid down the arrival ramp facing each other with our boards parallel and millimetres apart, doing the same speed. Eventually we just had to grab each others' coats and I couldn't help but say "Shall we dance?" before we both collapsed in a hysterial heap at the foot of some snooty skiers, both of us in stitches. You had to be there, really... :-) My riding improved quite a bit, thanks to painless feet and being able to relax. A really good session. pm: Teaching Steve, went down 'Le Plan' and Edelweiss, but pretty slow as only Steve's 4th day. |
