then the problem lies with the instructors.
I disagree with this in the context of the article. She mentions that these skiers had taken lots and lots of lessons. But because THEY have been so focused on the technique, they are not enjoying skiing. They want the perfect turn, perfect edge, perfect position. There is nothing an instructor can do except tell them they're fine. I used to ski with one of these people. Do I have this right? Am I doing this correct? Geez, relax and go ski it!!
And those of us who ski big mountains will be intimidated by the East Coast skiers who are awesome carvers...
That's me I hope!! And I don't need to carve on snow, just ice. Bumps and powder don't need carving.
