Child Pose
Child Pose
We’ve all seen the unshakable five year olds, tearing down the mountain, pulling sweeter moves than us. But don’t hate, appreciate.
This pose harnesses your inner child’s innocent, unwavering radness which is great for slopes. You’ll be tearing past the little tykes in no time.
Kneeling on the floor, with your knees hip distance apart, bend forward and lay your chest between your thighs whilst you arms rest alongside you, palms facing up. Alternatively, keep them pressed in front of you.
This pose will open up your hips and gently stretch the muscles, which will be working hard when you are riding.
This is also the time for you to envisage yourself on the mountain, soaring over kickers, rails, cliffs and powder runs. Who ever said this visualisation stuff wasn’t for the faint hearted?
