Derren Appraisal

Derren skiing beautifully - in a storm!

I remember when "skating" suddenly clicked for Derren - when she was tiny! She has never lost the feeling and her timing still looks great and natural. The only change is positive. She looks more fluid, faster and more relaxed than ever.

She needs to work on the "pivot" so as to be able to choose which edge to use to start the turn and be able to have the option of skiing with a narrower stance - but that's not essential for the time being. She also needs to become a bit more aware of dynamics (to continue improvement) as she occasionally moves slightly in the wrong direction to pressure the ski.
