Introduction

My name is Ben Hulin, and I am from South Bend, IN. This last year I completed classes at Bethel College and received my Health and Physical Education teaching license in Indiana. I am starting this blog to chart some of my activities. Many of you know that I participate in everything I participated in before my motorcycle accident, but now do them in different ways. This blog will show some of the activities, competitions, and different races I am involved in. Please comment or ask questions as we go. I am more than happy to explain things in detail. Thanks for following.

GoPro Camera

This past week I picked up a camera.  It is a wide angle camera that you can strap on your helmet and you can video yourself and your friends skiing down the runs.  It is pretty cool.  I have not edited any videos from the ski hill but you can see some pictures I have taken below.  It has been a good last week or so.  I have not been as busy with the blog as some of you followers have noticed.  Not much new has been going on other than the normal skiing and outreach opportunities.  Session three has started and I am teaching students every Wed / Fri / and Sat.  It should be a good time teaching others as I continue to improve my own skiing.

This is a shot from the GoPro Camera.  You can see The National Ability Center on the left.  This is where I store all my gear and get ready right by this bench.  You can see some of the runs on the mountain straight ahead.
 Here is the bench where all the wheelers get ready and get into their rigs.  It is pretty cool out here because you are never the only one out on a sit rig.  Most people have seen one of us before and it is not uncommon to see five or six wheelchairs with nobody in them around this bench.
 This is the First Time Lift.  I usually ride from The National Ability Center to this lift and then ride it up and it is easier than hiking up to the lifts that go higher on the mountain.  It is a pretty good set up.  You can see the GoPro Camera attached to my helmet in the shadow.  It is a pretty cool piece of equipment.
