Ok so here is the plan, since I am officially done for the year with my current ski school. I was thinking about doing a free to anyone who shows up clinic at one of the local resorts. The resort will most likely be Seven Springs, but Wisp and Timberline could be in the works.

The things I need from the forum members is an idea of interest level if any at all. I would also like to be PMed with as honest as you can be with your skiing levels and goals. Its free but want to try to set this up so people can have fun and learn something.

as long as I get a few interested who ever shows up will get free coaching from me.

dates will be the 29th of March, location TBD (90 percent sure it will be springs).

If you been struggling with spring snow, want to learn how to really ski bumps, or just become a better skier. You simply can not afford to pass this up. Free all day coaching with a top level coach!

Wisp seems closer, but I guess they are both about the same distance, so whichever has the best terrain.

Seems like Bushwacker likes bumps and when I was there on 3/1, there were no bumps to speak of at Wisp. There was a small line off of mid-station on one of the feeder trails into the Wisp Trail but that was it on the whole mountain, very short and about three bumps wide. The Face was groomed flat--I guess becuase of the slide earlier this year. There was still a small crevasse when I skied it on 3/1.

The shots of T-line from last weekend look great. That would be my vote.

Hey, if that's going to be the 29th as in Sunday.... count me in (can't make it Saturday). I could sure n-joy doing the drop again and again. We just need to make sure they don't bulldoze those ta-tas into pancakes on Friday or Saturday. eek

Here's hoping. Ya never know what T-Line will do...

Right now, The Drop has to be the most challenging open trail in the Mid-Atlantic. Actually, it is probably the only remotely challenging trail open in the Mid-A.

Depending upon the weather this weekend, I may be at T-Line also. (If the DC weather sucks for yard work this weekend, I'll be in WV.)

I may (well, I am) be interested in this. It will depend on a few other factors, but if they work out then I'd definitely be down for some instruction. I sure could use some!!

BWPA, I'll let you know as soon as I can.
