Hello U14-2s,
Thanks for the fun run through the trails last week, great to see lots of you out there! We’re going to get a bit more of a technique focus this week with some ski striding:
Thursday (29) @Canmore Nordic Centre
5:00-6:30. Meeting outside the Bill Warren. We will be doing a combination of running and ski striding. Ski striding poles are optimally 10cm shorter than your classic pole length, if that length is unavailable to you your classic poles will suffice as well.
Upcoming Details: We’re moving days! This week is our last Thursday for the summer as we move our program date over to Mondays. Our next session will be July 3rd. Being at the U16/18 camp I will not be able to make it, instead we will have a substitute coach for you.
(Last Weeks Note): We’re going to pick up the roller skis in a few weeks (first session July 17), now is a great time to take a look at your skate roller skis, boots, & poles to make sure everything fits and functions. If you need roller ski pole tips Trailsports has a number in stock, bring along your pole to make sure the base diameter matches up! Check the roller ski maintenance page at the top of the forum for more information.
