Getting Better & GOOD




I want you to become a good
skier, but first it’s important to
know what your skis are made
of—boots and bindings, proper
care of equipment, clothing, of
course—and the history of those
who preceded you down hill,
standing on their shoulders so
to speak of them who went before;
and cherishing all that I want you
to take a run--one run mind you—
then sit over here with the rest of
us and we’ll workshop: discuss
your moves, whether they flow
or not, the articulation of turns,
smooth or choppy, each of us
giving you the feedback you need
before you take another run:
yep: just one, come over again
and again and we’ll assess—talk
about it amongst ourselves: what
you can do improve your skills.
