Just 3 weeks ago: In her last lesson of the season with VASS Jayne helped Nini get to grips with 4-track skiing. These pics just came through on email today from Nini and her friend Kim.



Jayne says:
I discovered that skiing with outriggers is a real blast :)) and Nini did a fantastic job! She used to race and this was her first time skiing since she had a stroke 5 years ago. While coping with weakness and balance problems resulting from her stroke Nini not only mastered the outriggers but also learned how to handle parabolic skis - they're a far cry from the straight racing skis she'd been used to!
A splendid way to round off a great first season with Vermont Adaptive... and it only took a week for the skin to stop peeling off my nose - it was really hot that day too!
We're both looking forward to meeting up on the slopes again next winter, tho it seems so far away just now ;)
