Didnt they get chance to get a picture!? I always have camera to hand for moments just like that!!!

Others dont tend to have one at the ready as it takes me 5 minutes to stand up!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Oh jesus!!!! It is coming......

Please dont make this another lid thread....hope it never arrives in N otherwise the forum will crash :twisted:

No problem, Moutiers web cam in VT 15 Jan suitable???

Carvers - Yes. You mean inside/outside edge rather than 2 insides :shock:

Dont think alignment is a problem. Got fallen arches so that should make it easier. There is a slight roll in, but I doubt enough to make an edge catch? I use hired ski - own boots

:) :-) :D

I am very proud of the fact that my 17yo gets mad when he goes into a tuck and I gracefully slide past, standing upright, arms behind me .........

My best guess, and of course it is a guess, is that what is happening is that your weight is dropping back onto the tails of your skis. This will...
a, slow you down
b, make you unstable, tips quiver, edge caught - end of story.

Now I doubt if this is the correct way but I find it's about getting the weight well onto the front of the boots but, at the same time, being quite "light" if that isn't a contradiction or even oxymoron!

Anyway - any more good stories for a laugh??
:lol:

You calling me light footed? :shock:

How about this one as you want a funny story.... Standing on the edge of a slope on a beautiful day. Shades on, doing the old "how sexy am I"

Quite a foxy young French girl goes past.I decide to follow her as it is a good view to follow....

Turn round. Cross skis, BANG!!
Also done the same while getting on a 2 man chair on a blue run :oops:

Enough, I could go on?!

Thanks for your support Andy. So you will be wanting me to tuck on teh flat and then catch an edge and struggle to get back up?!!? :twisted:
