Last spring, we joined Glen and Kimberly Plake on their “Down Home Tour” as they stopped at 49 Degrees North in WA to do some skiing with everyone. If you were lucky enough to join them in the past, you know how incredibly and genuinely warm and friendly they are and how passionate they are about skiing. While they enjoy skiing the steeps with experts, they also strongly believe that skiers of all levels can have fun on the slopes together and that it’s not about where or how well you ski but how much you enjoy skiing. We witnessed this first hand as they showed everyone, even advance skiers, how to have a great time on green and blue runs and “not waste any vertical”. That’s where you’re likely to find them teaching locals a ski trick or two. In that spirit, we’ve put together a short video showing Glen Plake teaching a cool one called the tip roll. Watch the video, find a safe place on the mountain to practice and live to ski another day.
