"foot2foot" wrote Because in most cases, it has taken people *years* to move from the bunny hills to parallel skiing on the blues. That's why almost all new skiers quit after the first day. This system solves that problem. Are you talking about those "ski three times a year" kinda people? I've witnessed no less than five people of very different background start skiing parallel on their first or second day with very little external influence. They all had grave problems with more difficult terrain though, Exactly. The magic turns system is what enables a very new skier to take the steep greens and the blues within hours. Well, if this is the case (blues within hours), than this is of course totally worth preaching. Going straight on a flat board just isn't a good idea. Some people have great problems with it, some are just fine. It depends a lot on how their bindings are set up (highback forward lean and angles). I can set up mine to have a lot of stability just bombing on flat board, but this makes other things less comfortable. Especially for a beginner No? First useful thing a beginner usually learns is J-turns, which essentially is going from flat to lots of edge. And the major issue is, just like with skis, they're waaay to far back on the board. |
