...I'm going to really freak on someone.
I was teaching a low level lesson this past sunday with 5 beginner/intermediates in a slow skiing zone. We were working on turn shape to control speed and working on completing turns. I was out in front of the class and they were following behind me in single file. Near the bottow some stupid kid on a snowboard came barreling down from behind me totally out of control. Right before he would have hit me he yelled "on your right" so I instinctively moved hard left.... right into his path. He was on my left not my right as he yelled and this out of control idiot hit me in the lower back hard enough to blow me out of both heel pieces with the dins on 9. He proceded to fly over me and skid to a stop 40 feet in front of me. Needless to say I was irate. I think it is just because of exposure from the amount of time I spend in beginner/intermediate areas while teaching but I get hit 3-4 times each year. The next person who pulls this stunt is in for a really big suprise because I fear that I am going to totally lose it.
