Day 87 - jug it! jug it!

Still busy in snowboard lessons with another 65 kids.  Lil Rippers slowed with only eight instead of sixteen like the previous day.  No new snow overnight and the weather had a bit of everything:  flurries, sun, clouds, and rain at the end of the day in the Village.  I was floating and ended up taking three level one kids.  Two of them could side slip on their toes but not their heels, and one kid had never snowboarded before and he wanted nothing to do with it.  In fact, he did two laps down the Magic Carpet and literally gave up.  There was nothing any of us could do to convince him to keep giving it a go, so he ended up in the Den for about an hour before he joined the rest of the group for lunch.  To my surprise, after lunch he headed out with the other boys and just started to snowboard.  We were all pretty psyched and he ended up having a half way decent day.  But, to quote the kid, "I am never doing this again!"
