DAY OFF

Today we finally took our needed day off.  We heard and saw pictures how crowded it was today are were very pleased with our decision.  The Kids slept in and we went to the Rec center for some spinning and fun!!

LoveLand Day #5 on Snow

Today was again sunny and beautiful.  The athletes skied Slalom again are are showing progress.  We did five days in a row at Altitude and all held up very well.  Elise Micheals had a birthday today and she was skiing out of her mind!!!  We just went out for Chinese birthday dinner and a DQ topper for the Birthday girl!  Coaches are super pleased with progress and attitudes.  Tomorrow we will take the day off with the impending weather.  We will hit the rec at 10AM for some fun and games and swimming.  Hope you all get out on OKEMO's slopes this weekend!!!

LOVELAND day#4 on Snow

Last night we all got to cook some cow at the MINT!!  Best place in Town.  We hit locals night early and were rewarded with steaks for 2.99$  Kids doubled up and grilled away!!  Now they can grill for you all at home!!!
 We went for a sleep in today to let the crowds depart for the lanes and let the athletes get some must needed rest. GMVS showed up today with over 100 people athletes and staff.  We were feeling lucky not to have such a managable group. Locals felt invaded, but good to see old friends. Everyone from the east is here right now kinda crazy.  We will ski five days in a row which at this altitude is tough, but we will start later again tomorrow as well.  On our day off Saturday we will hit the Rec center for swimming Brucie ball and spinning.

Athletes worked hard again today and are really beginning to learn how to feel what they are actually doing on the skis.  Communication is strong and skiing is just divine:)

LOVELAND day#3 on snow

What a perfect day!!  Sunny and 60s with just amazing snow.  Athletes skied Giant slalom today and worked very hard.  We worked getting balanced over our skis and carving through the turn.  The U 16  group made a total turn around after a very rough start.  Frustration was present for athletes and Coach!!  But with communication and hard work we all turned the day around and had a most positive session.  Great skiing by the end of the day, and athletes are learning how to feel what they are now doing!  Video has helped all see what they are doing and what they need to do.  We hope to set a great foundation for the upcoming season.
We headed up to the Continental Divide today and it was so warm Greg gave us a gun show:)

WE are all Having a great camp!!!!

LOVELAND day#2 on Snow

Hello the sun was out and the snow stayed firm through lunch.  Athletes are super pumped and working hard on their skiing.  We skied in age groups again and worked on stance and balance drills on our slalom skis.  We will switch over to GS in the AM !!!!  The weather is looking bad for the weekend so we may ski friday and take the weekend off which may be forced on us:)

LOVELAND DAY #1 on snow

Hello all we made it to CO without incident.  although it was a long day it was very smooth and the athletes were great all day!  We skied today at loveland and the snow was firmish and fun for the first day back.  We split into age groups and drilled them hard after a few free runs of warmup.

Poor loveland was invaded by Eastern teams as well as Western.  We saw SMS, Burke, Romark and Jackson.  Great to see old friends, but made for some tight space.  The athletes are all working hard and the conditions are great for training.  We had a great dinner at the DAM Dillion Brewery.  Looks like we timed it perfect as we will have snow upon our return.  Don't forget to Vote!!!!!

OMS KICKED IN!!! :)

Hello All   Hope sandy did not get a hold of you.  Happy Halloween and Fall is here.  OMS has started and the athletes are working hard before headed to CO on Sunday!!
