Old Trip
This is the sign up and organization page for an old trip. It already happened. Please do not sign up for it.

Introduction

Main article: Tele School

Date

January 24th, 2009

Location

Mt. Seymour

Meet at 8:45am in the Day Lodge

Be there by 9:00 at the latest or organizing groups and tickets will be unnecessarily unpleasant.


If you can't catch a ride, you can get there by talking the Shuttle for 5 $ each way.

Dry School

There will be a dry school on TBD in the Clubroom to coordinate rides and gear. There will be a gear master and instructors to help you select gear if needed.

Learning Material

See Tele School#Learning Material

Sign-up

Instructor Sign-up

We will try and maintain a student to instructor ratio of 4:1 (minimize cost to students while keeping small group sizes). Instructors will be selected as student numbers require in order of sign-up. Instructors: please indicate an appropriate skier ability for your group.

  1. Kjetil Birkeland Moe (intermediate - advanced. Carving, short turns, technique)
  2. Øyvind Reimers (intermediate - advanced)
  3. Richard So (beginner-ish)
  4. Line V (survival - beginner)
  5. Veenstra (survival - intermediate)
  6. Melissa Hogg (beginner - advanced)
  7. Craig Alfredson (beginner - advanced)
  8. Steve Mullen (beginner - intermediate)

Students


Signup Closed
This is the sign up and organization page for an old trip. It already happened on 24-01-2009. Please do not sign up for it.


- Please keep in mind that if there is a shortage of instructors, students at the bottom of the list will be bumped onto the waiting list.

- It might be a good idea to state how experienced you are/what you want to work on next to your name to make sorting groups easier.

Beginner (never skied, or at least not recently)











Intermediate (I can snowplow, so I want to learn to tele)

  1. Laura C - have the occasional nice tele turn but am lacking any real technique and often am a tele-poser (and parallel turn on my teles)
  2. <Breanne Johnson - level 3 as per the skill listing on the discussion board
  3. Kate Robinson - level 3 as per the skill listing on the discussion board
  4. Bob Lai - can ski down blue comfortably on teles, half ass tele turns/survival skiing on black, want to improve on techniques, not sure if I should go in intermediate or advanced.
  5. Greta Raymant - same as Bob





Advanced (I can tele somewhat reliably, but I want to do better)

  1. Will Whitty (I can do crappy turns that resemble tele, but don't have much practice and need to improve.)
  2. Evan Morris - this guy is a pro tele skier already, he should be teaching!


Wait List







Rides

Please indicate here if you have a car, where you are leaving from and how many people you can transport.

Driver's Name [Leaving from,# of passengers]

Carless People

For people that don't have a car.





If you can't get a ride, you can get there by talking the Shuttle for $5 each way, but catch the early one or you'll waste a lot of time chasing your group.
