Gail's Bumps Class

gebbyfish
Anyone ever take this lesson at Gore?  They are offering it on Saturday at 945 and 1 I believe and would like to get better and more confident in the bumps.  Any thoughts?

Gail is the ski school director at Gore and a PSIA education staff member.  I think she may be an examiner by now.  Any clinic she is giving is going to be top shelf stuff.

I've taken one 2 years ago and plan on taking Saturday morning class as well. I wonder where camp will take place this time, it was on Rumor before.

For $25 its a no brainer.  Even if you only learn one thing to help you get through the bumps its worth it.  They had a seeded bump course on the arena last weekend.  I imagine they would start out on that.

Have fun!

For others that are interested, no reservation is required.  Just show up for the two scheduled times and you are good to go.  Probably going to be the best $25 skiing related dollars I'll ever spend!

Gebbyfish and I did take morning camp. Pleasure to meet fellow forum member.

In the morning session there were only us two with instructors Kathleen and Gail. It was best lesson I've taken. We took Uncas to Straightbrook chair, did run on Hawkeye, few runs on Lies. Finished up on Arena bump course. I kept practicing rest of Saturday and worked on passing the knowledge to my son on Sunday.

Good to meet you as well, Denis!  Did you rock Walt's contest with all the new-found knowledge?

No, I did not participate. My son and daughter (10 and 4) did. I may post video in "Kids Stoke" thread soon.
