Ski lift

through us or elsewhere? Where are you from Corey, and where is the Rossignol dry slope you are hoping to work at? As far as I am aware, and I have CSIA L2 and park certification, I am able to instruct and be insuranced when I work for a ski school. Different ski schools around the world may have different policies and may only except certain qualifications at a set level. “CASI's insurance policy only covers CASI members while teaching and riding on a snowboard” “Please note that…

my wrist it hurt. So the ski patrol called a snowmobile to the bottom of the hill and I had to ski down which I thought was going to be horrible, but it wasn’t too bad. When I got to the bottom by the snowmobile they wrapped my wrist with athletic tape. Next, they pulled out this cardboard square and I was thinking what is that for. Somehow they made like this sling out of it that my arm could rest in and not move. Then I got on the snowmobile and the driver gave the two ski patrol guys a rope…

upcoming trip and we were so unprepared. Us kids, we’re just stuffing shirts, pants, socks and whatever we needed and mom and dad were ready a day before, but we were not, sadly. Zipping up the last of suitcases, we headed to Burlington coat factory for ski pants and coats. We made payment on the clothing and went back home. That night we were aroused, fired up for the trip and the snow. We couldn’t have anticipated for what type of journey was ahead of us. If only we knew what was coming. We…

When I was younger, I remember the first time my mother taught me how to braid hair. I was so intrigued by braids and the way they looked that I wanted her to show me how to do it on my own. She began to show me while doing my younger sister’s hair. The way she described it while she was doing each action seemed so seamless and flowed perfectly as each 3 parts of hair intertwined and weaved in and out so graciously. As I began my hands-on approach for the first time, it seemed so natural to me…

order to get to Ober you have to drive through downtown Gatlinburg and back up into the Smoky Mountains. As soon as you arrive head into the main building to purchase your tickets and rent any gear you may need. They rent out skis and snow boards of all sizes, along with ski poles and lockers. Once you have all of your gear head to the lockers to put on your snow suits and thermal ware and ensure that all valuables are locked up. When you head out the back towards the slopes the first thing…

about to get myself into. Despite the fear,This was probably the only time I have ever been excited to get out of bed. There was a good reason for it: I am going snowboarding for the first time today. My mom and I are making a trip over to Shawnee Ski resort today. I have been waiting for this day all year, however, I wasn’t only feeling excitement, I was also very nervous. I was scared because with every sport comes risks that everyone must accept if they may happen to you. My girlfriend was…

trip to Cochran's in order to make a day's worth of runs up and down the t-bar was just the beginning. No one in my family does not ski, So when we go it is normally all of us. The times that only a few go can be the best. One time with my dad I skipped school to skia big snow front that was coming in.We had hiked out to the north side of Castle Rock, which is a chair lift that has some of the best glades in Sugarbush and from all the fresh cut turns the…

Eddie Rickenbacker once said, “Courage is doing what you’re afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you are scared.” What I believe Rickenbacker is trying to say is that you can not be brave without having the courage to face your fears. I have taken many risks and in the end they have always had purpose. Two themes present in the stories “A Day on the Slopes” and “Amra and the Skateboard” is to be brave and to take risks. “A Day on the Slopes” and “Amra and the Skateboard” both support…

Do you know that feeling when you see something, or hear something so good that it couldn’t be true? Or hear of a story that at start you believe is fake, but then start to believe it after you witness something the same as the story? I knew that slides were fun, without water or not. And it was an opinion that I deeply believed in, that these things were fun. I believed them for so long until I went on vacation and saw the bad part about having fun. One day, when me, my mom, and my dad were…
