Skill videos for Virtual Week #3 for all Skill Levels have been posted on our YouTube Channel Junior Coaches are introducing scooters, duck-walk and downhills (see great example of downhill position above!)
There is also a great bonus video about how to wax skate skis. Most of you have no-maintenance fishscale classic skis that don't require waxing, but this video is a great way to demystify the subject of glide waxing. Worth a few minutes of your time for sure! If you haven't been out yet, be sure to start with the most important skill: fall down and learn how to get up! See this week's Level 1 video or check out our Facebook Page for another great example. The weekly video project is being managed, directed, choreographed, edited and posted entirely by Junior Coaches (high school students). A big thank you to them for taking on this very large task! We will do a full credit listing as we get toward the end of the season. If you missed the Welcome to SkiSparks presentations or the How to be a Youth Ski Coach session, links are on our Get Involved page. Happy Skiing! |
