Hello again; We hope you had a great weekend.
This week Emily is excited to share her first week on actual snow in over two years.
You can hear the excitement in her voice as she describes that whole week.
She talks about being so excited that she started packing several days early.
She talks about reconnecting with an early sponsor from purplemoosesocks.ca
She talks about meeting her new team who would be responsible for her safety as she flies down the mountains.
So we want to welcome Isaac, Nicole, and James to the Team Starfish family.
She took us through her weekend including arrival, traveling to the hills, and meeting and practicing with her new team.
It’s interesting to me at least to realize that even though she is a highly skilled athlete that she began her first weekend in a while by starting on the smallest hill.
I also found it interesting to hear her discussion about the quality of the snow and how it can effect the rider.
She didn’t mention it here, but I know from being her friend that the lighter snows that she used to train on in Ontario actually helped her last week.
Shredding on less-than-perfect powder has made her a better racer.
Near the end she played some audio from her and her coaches working together.
You can hear them calling out numbers which she explains.
It sounds like she had an amazing first weekend shredding those hills.
Me and Emily truly do want to hear from you. We want to hear your opinions and suggestions so we can make the show better.
You can follow Emily on Face Book, Twitter, or Instagram.
You can also send her an email.
If you have questions about the network, please email me here.
We want to thank our generous sponsors at Blubrry.
We couldn’t do this without their financial and technical support.
Until next time me, Emily, and Darling want to thank you for your continued support. Take care now,
