The question has been asked: what does a person learn at Chris's clinic (ie; why would I pay money for that?!?!)... Recently, I had the chance to go and photograph and participate in a clinic that came to Valemount/McBride and thought I would post some photos of the RideWithChrisBrown experience. Overall, it was a really mixed bag of items to learn: First and foremost, Chris emphasizes safety: Avalanche safety, having the correct gear for the elements, riding within your skill set in terrain you are qualified to be in!! Our first day started with learning to maneuver the sled in a slow and controlled fashion down slopes and around obstacles:
1. Chris tells us what he wants., and how.
2. The day dawned clear and beautiful-- convoy headed out to the mountains of McBride
3. Slow and controlled is the key when navigating obstacles on angled terrain.
4. Slow and controlled BOTH ways!!
5. Chris' teaching gets UP CLOSE and personal
6. Chris offers constructive criticism as each person tries it.
7. Justin has got the Nytro under control.
8. John and Tyler practice in the sunshine with a beautiful backdrop of blue skies and mountains.
9. Brian has GOT this!!
10. With every success comes failure!! Danny-boy takes a tumble. These guys paid their respects to the old adage: "It doesn't matter if you fall down seven times, as long as you get up EIGHT" over the course of the weekend.
