論行千里路,你來來去去只在北美洲滑,最遠只是到 Alaska ,你好像還差很遠,雖然 Norman 滑雪天數不多,但他美美, 日本,歐洲,澳洲也都滑過,我也滑過日本,韓國,北美,所以論千里路,你仍差得遠,
顯然你也不知道“行千里路”的“含”意,“行千里路”與“旅行千里”是兩回事‧你“旅行千里”只是“到此一遊”,而“行千里路”卻是在“千里路”上“生活”、學習,換句話說,“Life is a journey, and the purpose of the journey is on the journey itself, not the destination.”“ Higher level skills are all mental.”你 們看不見,只會說人差,小知的好笑。

I was young once, so naturally, I was cocky as well, and I used to think maybe I was among the “best” swordsman in the world,
until this young innocent looking lady came along, “speak softly and carry a big stick,” and beated the “hell” out of me. (She was then All Japan Kendo Federation 3rd Dan.) And in a way “saved” me, otherwise, I would be dead (at least, metaphorically) long ago. I have since learned and become a better swordsmen later, she may not know it, but that is a gift for a life time, and I am truly appreciative. And that, in Kendo/martial art fields, is known as “killing knife, life saving sword”/「殺人刀,活人劍」‧(The “hell”was the idea of “being #1,” or pursue it; there is no such thing as #1, in any technical skills or fields; being #1 is only an illusion, and hard to kill.)

It is our last time practicing Kendo together. 10+ years later, we met again here at Tahoe, for her family skiing and snowboarding vacation, a truly "making friends through martial arts," 「以武會友」.
Yes, they were staying at my place, and I taught all her family skiing and snowboarding for free, and I got a good story to tell for teaching her skiing too, later.

How do you teach a 3rd Dan Kendoka? The first time we went skiing together, my kendo mentor was a “three-timers three years” ago skier, so I offered to show her some more skiing techniques, as I did, her husband disappeared. It was an early season, in Stowe, VT, iirc, the snow condition was sketchy at the best and only one green run open, top to bottom. I was following her, and she was struggling to turn on that somewhat sketchy terrain. So, I told her to do a “Main”/面cut (Kendo term to strike the head), which is done by stumpimg the right foot, when she make left turn, and a Do/肚cut (to strike the belly), which is pushing from left foot, when she make right turn. What a 3rd Dan, she just simply followed them through and skied all the way down without any struggle anymore, and TTB all day long. I was really surprised the simplicity of the solution and really happy for her, as then she can go skiing with her husband. Teaching skiing is not just simply to follow whatever “teaching method” depicted by ski schools. Which also brings up another question, what's the difference between “instructor” and “coach”?

Oh what a big story. Very big deal to you but it is "little knowledge" to us.
I'm sure you have your own definition of "instructor" and "coach". Personally I don't know the different between them. I only know the different of "certify instructor" and "certify coach" which you are not able achive.

Of course, that IS what makes you “小知小技小人,”“CSIA L1 假教練”; any body else has/know an answer?

I forgot what that forum was called, but it “died” after I left (at least 10+ years ago), the one and only web forum that I ever witnessed died on the net, killed by human computer viruses. Funny that.
Mind to remind us how many forum you got banned or kicked out?
The team "human computer virus" is best suit to describe you as you crawl from one forum and another forum for over 10 years.

You mean the deadbeat forums like hkssa and ski.com.tw? Even visiting them are a waste of time, and you are proud to be one of their members? Yeah, deadbeat it is.

That is to say you whistler group has been shameless “爬蟲類”crawling on the net [following me] for more ten years, and continue crawling.
對,你只知道人家的經驗,你自己沒有經驗你是不知道“人家的經驗”在講什麼的‧初學者還有不少“老弱婦孺”,他們會有你說的那麼fit嗎?脫雪板可行,然後呢?坡陡一點,雪多一點,你還要教他們怎樣把雪板穿回去?他們雪靴下的雪,防礙他們穿雪板,你又要怎麼處理?脫雪板是一個方法(不是技術),大部份是“介紹”或是“建意”給初雪者用的,你已經不是“初雪者”了,你可以“不脫雪板”,“不用雪杖”,從綠線/你家客廳“爬”/站起來嗎?“我就在我家大廳地上,大廳比綠線更加平坦,起來會更加困難,穿好雪鞋和雪板,在地上起來,起不來你喜歡叫我什麼也好”,沒問題,“let’s see it”。
