Boy Scout Snowboard Program



I work as a Snowboard Instructor at the Oglebay Resort in Wheeling WV and at 7 Springs in Champion PA.  This season I got to work with a group of 13 Pittsburgh Area Boy Scouts in Jumperpursuit of their Snow Sports/Snowboarding Merit Badge.  This 5 Week Program was very rewarding  because we got to see these guys progress over a compressed time period.

Steve Draper, Nathan Tedjeske and I got to work hands on to get these guys down the hill in grand style.  We started with the basic elements of riding:  Balance, Edging, Rotation and Pressure.  Using the terrain and specific riding drills these elements were reinforced with Instructor Feed Back and Riding Analysis.
