snowboarding

Torrey and Alana, and Natalie and I up at Vail. Torrey and I ran phat groomers while the girls worked on their skills at the top of the gondola.

Natalie and Alana cheesin it up.... Check out the colors on the bottom of those boards! Can you tell they are excited to be on the mountain? This was at the Beav.

Natalie after finishing a difficult series of S-turns, taking a much needed break at Beaver Creek!! Looking good Nat! Outfit and board make you look like a PRO!!!

Natalie and Alana at the Beav on their way down off the mountain after their free lesson! Sure does beat having to ride down after a long day on the smooth runs at the top! I was able to ride down under the lift, take a detour through some trees, a quick run through the park and pick this spot under the lift for the sweet foto!!! and meet them at the bottom. Excellent day learning S-turns on fresh snow for the girls. It was awesome seeing them connecting series of turns all the way down the hill. **** Remember to look where you want to go girls.....look down at the snow and that's where you'll go....

Natalie's first day on the mountain this year. Does she look nervous???? Nah.. she's confident and ready to shred........ I by the way walked down this slope while carrying my board and helping Natalie bring back those memories of how to turn that she learned in Breck 3 years ago.... Takes some practice to feel comfortable on the board.
