Day 86 | lounging

Another warm sunny day at Whistler Blackcomb.  We had less than 15 kids in snowboard school so it was a pretty chill day.  No one had a crazy amount of kids in their class.  The levels were evenly spread.  I took two level three girls who liked to take it easy and stay on the slow side.  Perfect.

We were able to fit in a couple runs before lunch.  Whiskey Jack was pretty sweet with soft packed conditions.  After lunch we rode down to the valley and then headed up Blackcomb.  I wanted the girls to practice on blue runs and all the blue runs on Whistler end on a cat track.  I  knew one girl wasn't that good at cat tracks so instead of torturing her all day, I decided Blackcomb would be the better spot to practice.

Conditions under Jersey Cream were soft packed as well.  Cougar was groomed perfectly as I got the girls turning with their front knee .... making it easier to control your speed on steep blues.  We did two or three runs before catching the Peak to Peak Gondola back to Whistler.  It was the first Peak ride for both the kids.  A quick run down to the CLC to fill out report cards and then a final run down to the valley finished off the day.

Report cards? Is this where you get graded?

Yea kind of. It lets them know what skills they need to improve on and what skills are in each level.
