Matched Action - Snowboarding

Found this little snippet on the Washington Post site. It's a small piece about a Washington Post sports reporter going snowboarding for the first time. There are a few attempts at matched action--most of which don't work that well and just come off as random video strung together--but the best example is from around 1:10 - 1:20 in the video of her just kind of sliding along on the snowboard with the help of her instructor. That particular example works alright with the matched action, but overall I don't think it's very effective in this video. Plus, where are the shots of her actually going down the slope? Waiting on it the whole time. : (
