Pretty average so far right.br /We have held these clinics for several years but this year is different. We have a small group of 10 skiers all of which, with one exception, had never rollerskied!! On top of that most have only skied a year or two.br /Given the experience level, I was a little concerned with getting after technique drills on rollerskis that most people struggle with on snow. They would not be dissuaded. With the help of several gracious friends letting me borrow their personal rollerskis and a local shop, Bicycle Doctor, we got everyone outfitted with equipment.br /I have never been so impressed with a group of skiers. The focus, the determination is awesome.br /With the help of video analysis, light bulbs are going off constantly, even if for a stride or two (thanks to another local skier, Sean Becker, for bringing out his video equipment and taping). Looking forward to seeing the folks progress even more over the next couple weeks!br /Given the reward potential, it is definitely worth going that extra mile to help someone get into skiing.br /br /br /div/div/div/divdiv class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6725673749958162153-3431286666067395892?l=www.tokousnordicblog.com’ alt=” //div
