Bill Gladding Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I haven't been but I know it is located in or very near Clermont Florida. I believe Matt rides Radar products. I have been thinking of giving him a try he is only a couple of hours from where I live in Florida.

ALang Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Rini is at 4000 SR33. Take 561 south from Clermont approx 12 miles to SR33, then south on 33, 1/4 mile on left. Unpaved road with a gate about 100 yds in. Continue in another 1000 yds. Watched him facilitate technique improvements for beginning course skiers, Big Dawg competitors and a variety of world class pros, all 3-events. Articulate, intelligent, excellent eye and likeable guy. Call him or e-mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCskiier Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Matt is an excellent coach. He has a knack to pick up problems and give you advise that is easy to implement and works well with your style.He doesn't try to "re-invent the wheel" as some other coachs do.My only concerns are ; he didn't do video when i was there and his lake did not seem as wind proof as some others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Ed_Obermeier Posted October 30, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 30, 2009 I've been to Matt's 3 - 4 times and IMO he's an excellent coach. As BCskier said he doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, he takes what you're doing right and reinforces and expands on it, takes what you're doing wrong and explains why it's wrong and how to do it right. He does so in terms you can understand and will keep working to find a way to get it through to you until you get it, can break it down as simple as you need it or be as technical as you want. If that's not good coaching I don't know what is. I've tried a couple of other coachs and neither were anywhere near as good at translating to you or relating to you as Matt. Very patient and very friendly (unlike some others...), very easy to connect with, entire atmosphere is pretty laid back while remaining completely serious about the training he's giving you. The number of top young gun skiers who train with him is testament IMO to his coaching abilities (Karina and Whitney being just a couple that come to mind). Plus his price per set is lower than most. Even though he doesn't do video taping himself he allowed us to shoot video the entire time we were there which IMO is as good. Hard to beat IMO.Ed    Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
