We had another skate clinic for 5 skiers here in Canmore last Saturday. The conditions were as always - excellent at the nordic centre. During the morning session we focused first on getting video of the skiers in all different techniques as well as providing some guidance on what to think about for each technique. During lunch time we went through
the video one on one. This helps the skier to actually see what they are doing and makes it easier to correct it later. During the afternoon session each skier has 2-3 things to focus on in each technique based on what they saw on the video. They were also sent home with a footage of their technique video as well as some video of some of the best athletes in the world – this is a reminder about what they need to work on.
