As a first attempt at monoskiing, the afternoon doesn’t bode well. Like neon ski suits and fur snoods, monoskiing is the latest throwback from the 1980s to arrive on the slopes this season. The sport was invented in the 1950s by a creative chap called Dennis Retro: A room in the Fahrenheit Seven hotel Phillips on the USPacific Northwest after he adapted a waterski with a pair of old-school bear-trap bindings. It was a precursor to snowboarding but instead of standing sideways with feet astride the board, your feet are together on a single fat ski facing forward. The ski poles (apparently) help with balance and steering. After a brief flirtation with popularity in the 1980s, the sport retreated into the shadows of snowboarding but it has gained a small but dedicated following in recent years and now has its own festival, the Mondial de Post-ski tipples: Warm up in the hotel bar Monoski, which takes place in Le Pleynet on March 10-12 inflatable cape to help skiers earring and bright turquoise ski steep learning curve with monoskiing (monoski-france.com). fly down the slopes; and gear is the epitome of the 1980s ski but unlike boarding, where you To see if I can master the my nemesis, monoskiing.

    Glossary of Ski Terms by Skis.com Page 1 of 11 Home > Ski-O-Pedia > Glossary of Ski Terms Glossary of Ski Terms By Steve Kopitz 12/18/2012 Skiing and snowboarding are two of the greatest winter sports on the planet, and like anything else in this world the two sports have certain terms and jargon that can be confusing without a bit of definition. Below you will find a number of terms/phrases used in skiing and snowboarding to refer to products, clothing, and the sports of skiing and snowboarding in general. We have provided a brief definition to help clear up any confusion or questions you may have on these terms/phrases. A ABS Sidewall: Industry term for a type of edge construction on skis and snowboards using high quality ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) plastic. All-Mountain Ski: A large percentage of Alpine skis fall into this category. All-Mountain skis are designed to perform in all types of snow conditions and at most speeds. Other names for this style of ski include Mid- Fat skis, All-Purpose skis, and the One-ski Quiver. Alpine Skiing: Downhill skiing, as opposed to Nordic Skiing. Après-Ski: The day’s over – time for drinks and swapping war stories from the slopes. Audio Helmet: A helmet wired with speakers that allows you to listen to music while skiing. Avalanche Beacon: A safety device worn by skiers, snowboarders, and others in case an avalanche traps them. The beacon transmits a signal (typically at the international standard frequency of 457khz) that rescuers can use to locate a buried person.

In these ways, psychomotor, intellectual, and decisional goals are interrelated. They are components of a continuous circle (see Figure 1). Decisions are based on knowledge, and they demand action. Knowledge is good only when it leads to wise choosing and dynamic action. Action produces results when it is based on sound knowledge and a willing com- mitment. Student outcomes in health fitness and motor proficiency need a sound knowl- edge basis and result from making choices and commitments.

    Teaching Mono-Skiers What is a Mono-Ski? A mono-ski allows people who cannot use their legs to ski sitting down. Through the combination of a molded seat, or bucket, attached to an alpine ski by a suspension system, and hand -held outriggers, a person can ski independently. For mono-skiers, the principals of skiing are the same as ATS. The bucket is roughly equivalent to a stand-up skier’s boots. Good balance is a requirement to successfully mono-ski. The Quest for Independence The mono-ski is designed to allow a person to ski independently. As an instructor, promote this independence throughout the lesson. Have the student do as much as possible. But during the lesson, do not let the student get exhausted. It is your responsibility to monitor the fatigue level and assist as needed. For example, don’t make the student get up unassisted from every fall and don’t force a student to do all of the pushing on the flats. Use common sense. Common Disabilities associated with Mono- Common Medications to Consider Skiers Spinal Cord Injury (paraplegics) Analgesics (pain) Spina Bifida Antibacterials and Antibiotics (infection) Amputation Anticholinergics (bladder spasms) Antispasmodic Medications (spasticity) Anticonvulsants (seizures) Student Assessment and Equipment Fitting When choosing a mono-ski, there are a few considerations: If the student has a spinal chord injury, what level injury is it? A higher-level injury may require additional support. Check for other physical limitations: balance, ability to rotate the torso, arm strength. Any deficiencies may need to be compensated for. For example, a person who normally walks may tire easily from the upper-body workout involved in mono-skiing or a higher-level spinal chord may limit a student’s ability to pressure the ski through fore/aft movements.

It sounded like a fun way to meet people and get away from the city for a day. She kept showing up for hikes weekend after weekend. Hike leaders quickly noticed this regular hiker and asked if she would consider leading. Soon she was regularly leading hikes. In addition, our Appie was asked to become involved with the Hiking Committee. She started out running new member parties and working on the Schedule. After awhile our Appie became Chair of the Hiking Committee. While Chair, she initiated the last-minute hikeamc Yahoo group and a leaders-only Yahoo group, increased the number of leaders and activities, and helped provide more leader recognition and training opportunities. She also did hours of boring work getting those Transportation Codes updated. Recently – until today, in fact – our Appie served on the Chapter Executive Committee.
