Monday, The Knapton Way
Meet at WILD FLOWER BAKERY in the Palisades Village at 8:30am. Our first day on snow is a deep dive into the style of Ryan Knapton, we’ll start by setting up our boards to simulate the stance Ryan uses, “if you have a WIDE board this is a great opportunity to use it”. From there we’ll take a turn by turn approach starting with the toeside, moving to the heelside, and so on. Eventually flowing between turns natural and switch to unlock the nose and tail rolls that define Ryan’s style. We’ll also take time to capture video so we can understand our individual performance.
Tuesday, The RAMA way
Meet at 8:30am Alpine Meadows. We’re taking the same approach as the previous day with different inspiration and a different canvas. After the lifts close we’ll head back to the lodge for a final debrief and celebration!
