Snowli stopped next to a big green and white pine tree, blowing like a locomotive, he heard a small strange laughter then a voice which told him : ” why are you doing all these movements instead of turning” ?  Snowli looked on all sides before discovering a small snake spirit on a rock on a branch!

” A, a, a sna… sna… snake! ” Stuttered Snowli, surprised to see this animal not like the others. He was open-mouthed a few moments then, in spite of his dismay, managed to answer the the snake: ” because, I do not know how to turn! ” Don‘t worry, I can teach you all the bends in the world, answered the snake. ” The small snake was a friend, very kind and attentive. He began to explain to Snowli how to turn and to avoid all of the obstacles in the forest. Right turn, left turn, behind:how happy he was!

Snowli and his new friend continued to play this new game of bending and racing; one time on skis, and one time on snowboard!

The snake gave so much new advice that Snowli felt as a little snake. What an incredible sensation!

” A bend here, a bend by there “, Snowli came down the valley singing. He turned by avoiding all the obstacles with no problem at all, he braked to admire mountains, and from time to time he moved to follow the tracks of wild animals. By-passing a tree, he felt, suddenly, light, very light, too light.
