Papasteeze Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 But modern ski racing is much less downhill pressure than the old style, where you were taught to unweight the uphill ski, sometimes completely. The modern technique is also much better with a very wide stance. You almost said Modern Ski Racing Turn! I couldn't help the ribbing! . If you were to stand on the top of the hill and go straight down the base of the ski will go faster. That means if it were possible to ski on the edges only in a straight line, you would go slower than on the PTex bases. GO BODE GO!!!! We're shooting for Saturday at cb to do NASTAR. The kids can't wait. This will be our first chance at doing NASTAR this season. NASTAR - great stuff!! It got my kid (and me) hooked on racing! I wear a black Giro helmet with white Anon goggles. Easiest to spot is my daughter - she wears a pink jacket and yellow helmet. I wear a black and white jacket that is described as looking like road - kill Quote

Ski Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 You almost said Modern Ski Racing Turn! And he was only 11 years late in coining the phrase Quote
