Whitecrane Taichi skiing: spring skiing on Olympic Downhill, Heavenly
It is predictable that a few warm days after a snow storm will turn powder snow into spring snow. Spring snow, no ice, no bumps, slick and fast, with comfortable temperature and pleasant weather, spring skiing makes one of the best skiing environments, enjoying the ride.
While the spring skiing is just blossom, the ski season is cut short by coronavirus pandemic. Thou Heavenly plans to reopen in late April or early May, pending “the situation of Covid-19 as well as weather conditions,” but I doubt it would happen, nevertheless, we did make the best of it, the last run of the season.
Heavenly skiing: shadow skiing on California Trail
Are you guys still skiing? We do.
The weather was beautiful, but skiing was not, a typical midwinter skiing, and the snow was icy and slippery, tough to ski. On a busy weekend, the crowds were everywhere; check out the size of the crowds at the end of the clip.
A good skiing accidentally caught in film. Watch the skier in the yellow jacket ahead of me, he skied a good form. I was skiing in the midsection of Olympic Down Hill, the most steep, icy, and crowded portion of the trail. At the beginning, I wasn’t paid attention to him; just try to find an open space to ski through this slippery and chaotic section. Thou I can control it, but my line, due to extreme icy conditions, was sliding and slipping all over the trail. Then he appeared ahead of me again. I noticed that he has a consistently uniformed dynamic short turns. He skied straight down the hill with a uniform turning, without acceleration or deceleration or slippage, very good skiing. So I followed him, and made turn for turn with him, and my line was stabilized, and I have learned something—ski the icy slopes with dynamic short turn. I was really appreciated it, so I put it on YouTube to share with you ski enthusiasts if you’re interesting improve your icy skiing techniques. It is my kind of good skiing.
