Well, after those wonderfully worded epistles, what can I add?
This was my ffth camp overall. I took two, did not go for 2-3 years and have been the past 3 winters in a row.
My feeling is that the staff is getting better each year in their teaching methodology.
Harold and Diana take the feedback they see/hear and seem to have really been able to focus the skiers on the progression they need, not just what is in a book.
I see a real learning curve in the camps. The organization is tighter, Harold and Diana have it nicely pulled together.
Personally, I felt the instruction was the best I have had from them. At night, they review the days video. So every group is getting the entire staff looking at them. Harold and Diana are able to give the instructors assistance on how help skiers move to the next step up.
The "extra expert eyes" they used on each others students would be evident the next day in the class.
On another note, it is AMAZING to experience Harlalds "eye". He can tell what you did on the third turn or fourth turn, whether good skiing or not so good.
His ability to see what exactly is going on in your skiing is extraordinary. You should experience it! And he is very supportive in his critique. He's a softie actually. Now Diana......talk about tough love!!
Oh, and we all got to practice some pole dancing. (aka practicing counter acting/balancing)
And yes, I flushed my fav beanie hat down the auto flushing toilet.?
At least it wasn't a cell phone. Which my daughter did last year. Brand new phone.
There were quite a few couples in the camp. Mostly different groups, but nice to see.
