Easy day for Derin today on a family day trip over the Col de Petit St Bernard into Italy (La Rosiere – La Thuile). The main challenge was overcoming her fear of long button lifts – which she managed with a big smile on her face when getting to the top. When we were skiing there was no time for technical input and I didn’t want to spoil her trip by focusing on teaching – so she was just given feedback on-the-go about staying off the backs of the boots. The weather was great and there was no stress – a nice day on the mountain.
