Poster: A snowHead
|
Went to the salomon grom camp tonight..............holy cow what a learning curve!!!
Had a brilliant time and would definately recommend it to fellow snow heads who want to try freestyle - great tuition, patient instructors and let you progress at your own pace/confidence level.
Well worth a 2 hour drive each way!

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

ledge, sounds interesting, Can you post more details? at 37 I'm definitely not a grom, but I really would like to learn how to jump, if only to give myself more confidence that I can handle it should I unexpectedly find myself airborne - I had a nasty tumble at the eosb last year and hurt my arm, want to try to avoid such things happening again

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Interesting. Where? Hemel?
I was about to start a thread with the title "you're not an intermediate until you can 360" before i saw this. I would quite like to do something more than straight airs so this could be a good starter.

I've seen Pat run one or two Grom Camps at Hemel.

IIRC ledge is from derbyshire so it could conceivably have been any of the snowdomes - Pat sharples popped up on here last week advertising a Grom event at manchester

It was Manchester but they do some further south and in Scotland, I'm from close to Newcastle so a bit of a trek for me but i managed to nicely time some meetings at work.
When the events are advertised at the snow domes they do have a link direct to the Salomon grom website - it is mostly for the youngsters (and some are amzingly talented) but there are a few of us the wrong side of 35 learning the basics.
Getting myself booked in for an airbag session soon, but im going to have to buy some brown salopettes first.
