Default Norwegian Future Skate technique project

Several years ago the Norwegian ski team started a special project to find
the optimal skating technique.

First they created the world's most powerful super-computer specialized for
biomechanical calculations. So powerful it needs four other super-computers
just to handle its inputs and outputs.

Next they programmed it with every parameter and input needed for ski
skating. They started it running, and let it calculate and optimize, and
automatically generate new starting solution-vectors. And calculate and
optimize on those. They checked the results every three months, then fed it
more data. Then let it generate more starting solution-vectors, and
calculate and optimize some more.

Finally this super-computer transmitted the optimal technique solution to
the output super-computer. At last the Norwegian ski researchers could read
the answer.

But a spy in Sweden penetrated the system and stole the secret.

Then in a great action of public service, he put the secret up on the Web --
the true answer from this Norwegian skate technique project:
