A morning well spent

Mrs H has gone out for the day shopping, and I am not out until 1.30pm so I have spent a couple of hours this morning going through some really good reminders for technique by watching the Warren Smith Ski Academy DVD lessons 1 and 2. Last season I watched the Carving and Steeps sections, and this morning I revisited them and also watched the Moguls and Freeride sections too.

Anyone who is a reasonable intermediate really should get a copy of this DVD. What I found interesting as well as useful was some of the things they said about techniques that you were taught when learning, such as insistence on bending the knees and not focusing on flexing the ankle, and also putting pressure on the outside ski and neglecting the inner leg. Some really good tips and reminders on here.

A productive morning, mentally!

Lucky you. I have a 2 hour appointment with my financial/insurance advisor this afternoon, and a meeting with my lawyer tomorrow :(

All to sort out the fallout from my accident in July.

Oooh, good luck with your meetings.

I spent the whole morning doing housework...am expecting potential house-buyer.

Will spend the rest of the evening relaxing, webcam watching and looking for the Warren Smith DVD on ebay...Might pop down my local if I can be bothered. :lol:

How did it go with the potential house-buyer?

I have decided to start a blog to record the season and track my goal of 60 days. Really enjoying myself. :D

Tony, you have inspired me to go watch my copy of WS 3 :D

Tino, welcome to the Blogosphere or summat 8) Mine is on my sig on here.

They came and had a good look around, when they left they said 'Thank you what a lovely house you have'. I'll have to wait for them to talk to the estate agent now.

The blog thing is a good idea...do we get a link to it at some point? :D

Yeah sure, but I have to retrospectively update it before I go live :)
