Training Camp 2

A camp just for sit skiers.  Well at least it felt that way.  Rob Jeff and I were the only people that were at the camp.  Everyone else was either with the national team or couldn't make it because the roads were way too icy. Benn was out there with us too but he was still spending time dialing in his prosthetic.

We trained GS both days, big thanks to gatebusters and to ski cross!  Saturday I blew out of my binding a few times.  First the din was too low, then it was so high that getting the ski back in was very difficult.  But the binding and everything was fine and i didn't even break anything.  The snow was great, we all got a ton out of it.  Sunday we trained on Dave Murray and it was a little tight.  There was 3 courses set on it so it was a bit nerve racking trying to blast down and think about the little kids racing beside you but we still got lots of laps in.  The snow and course were awesome!  There was one fairly significant bump that blasted a few of us out of the course but at least there weren't any bails.  My faith in my binding was completely restored.  Check out some of the footage from the weekend, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MR1sY-mMDAs

Camp 3 is next week.  Hopefully we get the same conditions and a little more room to let it run.
