The question is, how many hours do you train a year? So this year, I was aiming to train 820 hours, definitely. A little bit behind that goal because I sprained my ankle, this fall and missed out on a couple weeks of training just didn't quite get the volume I needed. So, I'm around probably going to get her down to 800 this year. If everything goes, well, I'm not trying to make up those missed hours or anything but that's a pretty big jump. For me last year. I trained 700 in the Air before that I trained 730. So 120 was a pretty big jump, but so far I'm handling it pretty well. And that's kind of the most important part because at the end of the day, the hours that you trained aren't necessarily going to make you a better skier, it's actually just getting faster and making sure that you're handling those hours.
