Clarification about that Scout Ski Touring Trip



A couple people wondered if that was me in that previous picture. I am flattered but, no, that wasn't me, but it was Steve Frandsen our assistant varsity coach. And he really did get that high on free heel skis. Just for comparision, here's me on the same jump from the same angle with the same guy in the red hat standing in the same place in the background. What you don't see in the picture is how I succesfully used my knees to absorb the jump rather than actually going in the air. I am not comfortable in the air.

I think you should get into jumping too :). Looks cooler.

Now, see, I agree. Jumping looks so much cooler, but the penalty for failing to land correctly is getting so much higher these days.
