Ski Video

This is a video from our trip to Pas de La Casa, Andorra at the end of February. Thought I would post it up on here in case people are interested.

nice video. Did that carpet lift only serve that one narrow run?
Hows the angulation comming?

The carpet fed that run and onto a chair lift for a blue and to the other nursery slope.

I think the angulation is getting a bit better but was teaching for the whole holiday so didn't get much of a chance to practice.

Thanks very much Tima, it's a lovely video :D

How long have they been tying the ski tips together like that for? Is it only young children, or do they do it for adult beginners as well?

Cool cool. Awwhh you little guy n the red aged what 4/5 yrs was cute and so relaxed. Good one ! Can see you really enjoy skiing.
We going next Thurs 31st....cant wait. !

The young one in the video is only three. This was his first three days of skiing and the older one is 7 and it was his as well.

I bought the tip tether as he could open his legs but couldn't co-ordinate keeping the tips together. I only bought this on the night of the second day so he only got to use it for a day but it was a revelation. A soon as I put it on he could snnow plough and was in control of his own speed.

I was told by an instructor that he was too young to start but he was so keen (honestly I really did not push him as had been warned against doing that) that I let him have a go.

Best holiday ever seeing your kids enjoy a sport that you are so passionate about as well. They keep asking me when we are going back. :D

In France they allow the kids into lessons at three years of age.

Enjoyed the video! Well done!

Indeed I had the same feeling this season, skiing together with the children. It was first time for my daughter. Tried last 2 years to teach her but failed. So it was her first proper ski season.
