In the midst of the storm

Yesterday Cal, Paul, Paul's wife, Harrison, Hannah, and I all made a quick run out to steal some sets before the storm started back. Cal put a couple grabs, surface 180s, butter slides, and toeside indy grabs in his bag of tricks, and we have officially started going down the invert road! Paul got cut short a run but his toeside edge made a ton of progress.

Check out this toeside edge. One thing I make sure to do when coaching is to teach correct form before I let my riders "go huge." Cal loves going huge, but I'm proud to say if you check his stream he didn't make a wide edge, his eyes are up, and his hips and shoulders over his board. He could turn that front shoulder down a little to align it with his board more, but we've only been together for two sets!

Watching the rider

it was super foggy yesterday

paul laying back for a killer healside wake to wake jump.

Paul had great form with his healside edge, and his toeside make a ton

of progress in the short amount of time we got to spend together.

I'll be out of town for the next five weeks for a bike trip and

to study architecture, but email me at mitchellconnell@gmail.com

if you want to schedule lessons for July 3rd and after.
