  1. Widen your stance a little, locked knees can lead to a bad day when you cannot absorb vertical schock or have enough room for travel.Another trick i learned along time ago was to put a lunch try in your hands and pretend that it has a bowl of soup on it and you cannot spill it.The effect that is that as it cause you to rotate your hips and drive thru the turn and and will keep your schoulders square to the fall line of the hill and complete your turns all the through not like east coast turns.If try this until you get it down you`ll have better edge control and look further down the hill and go faster.It is not as easy as it sounds but once you get it,good times ahead.

  2. I have had a few.The best way i have been tought was stationary bike and water work out if you have acess keep your quads strong as possible.1st week ice and asprin 20min on ice 20 off this is all dependent on the how bad the tear is and how good your surgon is. I did my last meniscus tear when i was 35 and in very good shape and it took 6 weeks before i was back on the hill. The first couple of runs were shaky for me then it was all good, don`t worry it is amazing what they can do now and how quick you can recover.You will get the idea do the PT right and you will be back on the hill in no time.

  3. Ten tears ago Copper was great, now it`s early morning or weekdays and nights at Keystone right after the Cats groom around 5pm.Sunday nights at Keystone are good wile waiting for the traffic on I 70.Copper still has alot hardbooters Fin,Steve,Mulstay, Started the alpine team at Copper a long time ago they usally will know who`s riding at Copper or stop in to gravitee at the base of Copper ask Steve and the guys in the shop they can give you the skinny or drop me a line i am going to be up there at least 3-4 days a week.
