future Olympic skiers?

I was walking around Waterville Valley, NH, today on the way to play tennis (in a generous and creative manner of speaking...) and stopped to watch these kids learning to do ski jumping.  Middle schoolers (I'm guessing) upside-down in the air, making it look entirely easy as they landed on an enormous inflatable mat.  I should have guessed they'd find a way to ski in the summer, too. 

summer school for skiers

wheee!

looking so nonchalant upside-down
Who knows? Maybe in a few years we'll be cheering for them as they go for the gold.
