Cheers pav, will try that. You say put the weight on the lower ski, nothing new there, but how does that work when going straight (ish) downhill?
So, from these posts, I interpret them as go on edges rather than flat, with a bit of carving motion? No need to put my head on my ankles?? |

I bought some of those and found they made little difference. I have a problem that I get white fingers when they get cold. Holding a cold pint can even cause it!

Hi Mattski
There is a great thread on these forums about this. Take a look http://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/list/11022.page#96013 There is a bit of spam on it, but the intentions are good :) :) |
