Season 24-25: Day 43

The condition at Liberty was excellent once again. I started off snowboarding. I rode the double-black terrains and blue trails. I was working on my carves. I couldn’t tilt my board as high as I wanted. The more I bent, the more uncomfortable my feet got. Nevertheless, I could get my body to an open position and lean into my turns. I could get down low on my toe edge to the point that I could touch the snow. It was easier to touch the snow on the double-black.

After two hours of snowboarding, I switched to skiing. I simply loved carving on skis. I went a bit faster and made my S turns a bit narrower. When people asked me if I like skiing or snowboarding better, I replied, “I liked them both.” I spent more time snowboarding than skiing, but my skiing skills hadn’t declined. In contrast, I improved quite a bit.

I wish I can make a living teaching skiing and snowboarding. I don’t need to make much. I am fine with just enough to get by, but it is impossible. Even my wife got piss off when I brought up my dream job so I won’t bring that up again. Anyway, it was a great day.
