It was twenty below, today, at least - and that was before the windchill. DR, Dow, and I braved the weather heroically as we forged ourselves as ski pioneers on the winding trails of Wildcat. DR reintroduced the face cloth as face mask to the ski world, a practice crafted by the neckwarmer-wary (and Captain Emeritus) Charley Cummings. The oblique reference showed DR's true passion for preserving ski team tradition. We continued to work on high edge angle while covering our faces as best as possible and trying to keep moving down the hill with the 30 MPH wind gusts. The biggest achievement of the day was likely introducing Dow (the Caymaniac) to the men's team tradition of figure eights. We "set the synchros" about four times on the super dry super grippy snow, and by the end we were really impressing ourselves. We are are looking forward to some more training at Wa-Wa coming up this week and throughout the rest of the season.
