It seems to me that most skiers reach a level, after about 4/6 years, and stay there ~ because they stop trying to learn/understand.
hehehe, guess what Dave, I have a private lesson booked for tomorrow at 10am 8)
I kinda yearn for the days when everything seemed to be in front of me and new techniques were apparently being invented by the minute.
I think I ski well and after 30+ years I would hope I had learned a thing or two but it occurred to me the other day that I am just repeating what I do and I no longer have that little imp sitting on my shoulder saying “Think about your hands” or “… and now pressure the edge” or “come on keep your weight forward!”
So I checked in with Sepp (at Wildschönau’s Number 1 Ski School!) and hopefully tomorrow I will once again have a target, a goal to aim for and something to stimulate my eternal quest for perfection.
Tomorrow, I will let you know how many pages of error I have to correct :shock:
