Poles?

During Emily's last ski lesson, at McIntyre, Kerri taught the kids to use poles. Using poles is something Emily has been dying to do and she was thrilled to try. I have to say, kids with poles usually does not end well. Kids usually don't use them the correct way, they flail out while skiing, and dropping them is quite commonplace. As I suspected none of the kids in Emily's class were ready for them. They forgot their skiing skills, went back to the snowplow, and were just trying to hold onto the poles.
The good news is....Emily thought they were too hard to use and maybe she would try again when she is 6.
doubt it but we will see....
