While trolling the seeder neighborhoods in Lillihammer during their many idle hours Scott and Torin chanced upon a wayward Swiss miss hitch hiker. When our daring duo told her what they were up to in Norway she allowed as how she had never skied before. Being the gentlemen that they are, our intrepid travelers offered to give her a few skiing pointers if she was game to try it.br /br /Amazingly, we managed to round up a nice set of Rossignol skis and boots for her to use. After a few words of encouragement, when she balked, after stepped into the -20C temps near our secret mountain lair, Scott started her with some basics about how to keep the pointy ends going forward and she set off. Scott spent as an hour explaining the finer points of weight shift and follow through and the subtle leg drive needed to ensure a solid kicking platform. She seemed game; especially for a first timer and the lesson proceeded well enough until Scott ran out of ideas. br /br /She really does seem to be getting the hang of doesn’t she? We think she might have some potential if we give her another lesson or two. What do you think?br /br /object width=”640″ height=”385″param name=”movie” value=”http://www.youtube.com/v/ICOqSupyqC0?fs=1amp;hl=en_US”/paramparam name=”allowFullScreen” value=”true”/paramparam name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”/paramembed src=”http://www.youtube.com/v/ICOqSupyqC0?fs=1amp;hl=en_US” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” allowscriptaccess=”always” allowfullscreen=”true” width=”640″ height=”385″/embed/objectdiv class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2910103639238326543-2275622427244799535?l=methowolympicdevelopment.blogspot.com’ alt=” //div
