Dennis Matthews and Peter Poulsen have volunteered to video our skiers at a location near the Lodge; it is extremely instructional to see yourself on a video. Both Dennis and Peter have gone through the process at a ski camp with very positive results, so they strongly recommend that our TDXC club members try it out. It is one thing to know that you're supposed to get into a certain position, it is another to see that you're not quite there. You'll find it useful and interesting, and you won't find it on youtube afterwards! What happens at TDXC stays at TDXC.The video will be shown in the evening during the Potluck we'll have a Jerry Blackwill's house. He has a nice large flatscreen TV that works well for viewing the video. We have done this before and it was quite successful. We encourage each of our members to participate, regardless of skill level, and for either striding or skating or both. For a price we might even edit out the falls! We'll be glad to offer constructive comments if desired; it is usually pretty easy to see on the video if a foot position or body position is not quite right. We'll be doing the taping both on the flats and on a small hill.We'll send out the detail of the times for the taping and the potluck using our regular Evite format at a later date, but at least now you know when we'll be doing it.
