点评:“A private lesson with the right instructor, Is an Investment" and I am fortunate to have had Shannelle as my Instructor for 2 hours. This was my 5th time snowboarding and I had just went snowboarding the weekend before. I have had two other instructors before and have been catching on pretty quick but I found that as I was getting faster I was also fighting with the mountain to control my speed. I am a pretty athletic and strong guy but I am no match for any mountain. It can be very tiring and frustrating to ride this way. I watched videos, read forums and couldn't put my finger on why this was happening.
This is where SOS - "School Of Shannelle" exceeds above the rest! After Physical Training class (warmups), we moved on to the Science lecture where I learned drills to improve my balance, control and even jumping! I would have never done this or thought to do it on my own, trust me, it works! After that we moved on to the best class I have had, Physics! This is where I learned weightless turns and "The Gravity Line" she called it and though I never heard that anywhere before, it is exactly what it sounds like, It is Science and is 100 percent accurate. I was no longer fighting it, I WAS RIDING IT! Leaning forward, weight in the front, smooth turns, controlled speed and most importantly it felt effortless. I was finally! one with the mountain.
Shannelle informed me in the beginning that she would push me and if I felt uncomfortable to mention it. She did push me but the way she coached me made me want more. She gave me several compliments on my riding, and I left that lesson feeling confident, accomplished and proud of my riding. I was leaving behind some of the thinnest lines I have ever left behind. Thank you for the compliments on my riding coach but I owe it to you. You are "The Real MVP!"
翻译:“与合适的教练进行私人课程是一项投资”,我很幸运能有 Shannelle 作为我的教练教我 2 个小时。这是我第五次滑雪,上周末我刚刚去滑雪。我之前有过另外两位教练,而且很快就跟上了,但我发现,随着我的速度越来越快,我也在与山抗争以控制我的速度。我是一个非常运动和强壮的人,但我不是任何山的对手。这样滑行会非常累,令人沮丧。我看了视频,读了论坛,但不知道为什么会这样。
这就是 SOS - “School Of Shannelle” 超越其他学校的地方!在体育训练课(热身)之后,我们继续上科学课,在那里我学习了提高平衡、控制甚至跳跃的练习!我从来没有做过这件事,也从未想过自己做这件事,相信我,它有效!之后我们继续上我上过的最好的课,物理课!在这里我学习了无重转弯和“重力”她称之为“直线”,虽然我以前从未听说过,但听起来确实如此,这是科学,百分百准确。我不再与它抗争,而是骑着它!身体前倾,身体重心在前,转弯平稳,速度可控,最重要的是感觉毫不费力。我终于!与山融为一体了。
Shannelle 一开始告诉我,她会鼓励我,如果我感到不舒服,可以提一下。她确实鼓励了我,但她指导我的方式让我想要更多。她多次称赞我的骑行,我离开那堂课时感到自信、有成就感,并为我的骑行感到自豪。我留下了一些我留下过的最细的线条。谢谢你对我的骑行教练的称赞,但我欠你。你是“真正的 MVP!”
