This 4th of July, I had a neighborhood "blicknard" and the
younger folks were checking out my martial arts studio. In
addition to the usual sort of stuff, I have a couple of Indo
boards that are best used on gymnastic mats.

One guy had never been on one before an was frantically trying
to balence and was scissoring his arms grandly and rapidly.
He reminded me of your comical "Tai Chi Skiing" videos.

Thanks for being reminded of Taichi Skiing on your 4th of July
celebration.

It wasn't a celebration, it was a blicknard. Sheesh.



And if it's true that you can not describe "Tai Chi Skiing" in
words or pictures, that's your shortcoming, not mine.

Taichi Skiing has been described and explained. But you don't get it.

Yeah, except that you've been claiming all along that your Tai Chi
Skiing is something so incredibly advanced and mystical that you can not
describe using the English language.

"And the realm of Unism, is holistic and in the wordless realm, and it
has no English equivalence." - Tai Chi Skiing on his inability to
describe Tai Chi Skiing.

Is it a misspell, or a new word?

Yes, true Taichi Skiing, the substance of Taichi Skiing, cannot be
described. What you read in the descriptions are only the "appearance"
of Taichi Skiing and the mechanism how to do it. To present it in
English realm, true Taichi Skiing is all mental, and it is wordless,
one can only know it through experience. And as there's no English
words can provide you that experience, so you cannot "understand" it
through English.

It is advanced; I've likened the example as Me262 vs. P51 once, which
gives you a "visual" clue. And it is mystical only because you don't
know how phantom it.


"And the realm of Unism, is holistic and in the wordless

That's why "Unism" is coined. Unism describes a realm of existence
that mind and body are one, a state of existence where "what is mind
is the body, and what is the body is mind." Since English can only
describe a dualism/dualistic realm, i.e. a separated mind and body,
English has reached its limitation, so there's "no English
equivalence."

describe Tai Chi Skiing.

And Taichi Skiing/Unism describes a physical reality (in Unism, "all
mental" is the same as "all physical") that is beyond the physical
reality that can be described with English. And with English words can
only be described/defined with other English words, how do you get
this new idea into your head?

Line-skiing "rides," and turn-skiing "skis."

Finally, maybe I understand what your made up word "line-
skiing" means. It means standard crossunder turns.
And "turn-skiing" is crossover turns. You could have just
learned accepted terminalogy, and avoided a lot of confusion.

Not quite, my definition of "line-skiing" is "to ski lines," and "turn-
skiing" is "to ski turns" where the terms "line" and "turn" are well
defined/understood in skiing community. Though line-skiing also
utilizes the technique of crossover and crossunder, nevertheless, they
are basically "turns."

What you call "crossover," we old school call up-unweighting, and
"crossunder," down-unweighting. Same old same old, you only changed
the soup without changing the materials. Like I said, there's nothing
new, technique-wise, in skiing anymore. But the new terms keep coming
out, what is "crossthrough"?

Line-skiing "rides" because the skier uses the weight shifting to lead
the skis (to adjust the "shape" of the "variable board") before weigh
on it, where the "shape" of the board/two skis will track a particular
line, and the skier rides the line down.

In my observation, most of coaches, though they are very good skiers,
they are turn-skiers, as making good "turns" is their required
discipline, and end up the only way that they ski.

"Riding a line" goes beyond that,
