This makes the lh glove ( in my case) the most likely to fall.
Does this mean L handed people are most clumsy (probably)
Or that more left handers ski (unlikely of course)
A high proportion of people, if right handed, use their dominant hand to carry out a task needing the most strength or dexterity. Hence right handers will pull off the left glove first, and then drop it, because their LH is less dexterous.
Left Handers do not have this pre-disposition. (Science Daily 8 March 2011)
And as discussed in another thread, when taking skis off, RHs pick up the RH ski and lift the brake over the LH ski, and vice versa when unlatching skis to put them on.
My two sons are both left handers, and they both THINK they ski more quickly than me. So much for the power of thought of Left Handers!
