Christy

Coach Shelly had the opportunity to coach Christy for the second time this summer. It was great to see how much she has improved from her first clinic earlier this season!  Christy is an avid skier (Alta Plug😊) and was interested to know how skiing and mountain biking were similar in skills.  Shelly helped her see the connection between keeping a strong and stable body and allowing the bike to move underneath you and how that correlates with the same strong athletic stance in skiing and using your legs to turn the skis.  They connected more dots in cornering, by getting Christy’s weight (hips) to the outside of the turn which is similar to getting pressuring to the outside ski before you turn. Looking forward to seeing more of this super fun woman on both the dirt and the snow!
