O has only been skiing 2 times this year but has made huge progress each time.
-The first time I didn't take her little backpack with attached ropes that I used to control her speed as I skied behind her. She made a huge leap that day and learned to control her speed on her own.
The second time...
- I left her Edgie WEdgie at home. An Edgie Wedgie is a device that ties the front of the skis together for those learning. It allows kids to make a "Pizza" with their skis and keeps the skier from doing the splits. It is diffucult to break kids of this, kind of like a binki (Cinda).
As you'll see in the video, no ropes, no edgie wedgie, lots of smiles and giggles. A great combination.
PS- This is also a test for the video camera for the new phone, "The Droid". How did it do?? Looks like I held the camera the wrong way. Guess that's my fault not the phone's. You'll have to tilt your head for a minute or so to see the video.
