18th February 2015 – Gravity Training Camp, Schladming – Day 4

Another amazing day, great weather and snow conditions.

GS skis again, and really getting used to them. Feedback from Coach Matt was really great (“jaw dropping for first runs in the morning, great shape, hip near to snow”). Obviously loads to work on after afternoon runs !!!

Too busy for pictures today, so pinched one from Glen from lunch.

Great to see Mum and Dad waiting to see me at hotel when we arrived back, even though they are staying in hotel across town, not seen them for last 24 hours.

Dad sent me pic of Mum’s amazing fall, (she blamed Dad’s ski prep).

On the GS skis again as the conditions are amazing.

After a morning of GS fast free skiing, we hit the race piste with a great part stubble part full GS gate course.

Time to sit, listen and put into practice all the elements Matt and Glen have been telling us and showing us in the GS free ski sessions on the gates.

16th February 2015 – Gravity Training Camp, Schladming – Day 2

Amazing day training with Glen and Matt.

The weather and pistes are amazing, the snow is perfect and the crowds are really small so very little waiting for a lift.

Morning spent free skiing on GS skis, with the afternoon having the training piste lanes all to ourselves.

Worked hard on GS body positioning and carving to the limits of the skis.

Great day On SL skis around Schladming in Austria

Some great reports back from coach on my skiing, so will work hard on rest of the week.

(Shame I vomited on my last run down – maybe the Gluten Frei lunch choice wasn’t fully GF that’s why look so white).
