Have fun, IS What's with the poles? Ah the old "double pole plant" dead giveaway... Nah, I think they were mistakenly assumed I was the skier shown, and I ski "no pole," http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QTwA-rmAFE IS |

No, that's only your little knowledge's little mind strikes again, and that's what makes a low intermediate. |

You are really only getting 10% of the skis performance capacity by skiing on the flat surface of the ski(s). Because the botton edge is bevelled up and the side edge angulated in, the ski is designed to maximize its turning capabilities up on edge. The skier's centre of mass thus must transfer to the inside of the turns, maintaining a dynamic stability of inclination, angulation using centrifugal and centripedal forces, much like the riders of racing motorcycles do in their turns. This particular skier's centre of mass seems very close to the ski itself, although it is one level up from the very wide base of support of the snowplow skier, from a technical standpoint, it is not advanced use of the ski in the physical performance sense. However, the skier may in fact be touting the more etheral and meditative non-aggressive aspects of his pastime due to its smoothness, lower energy expenditures and very relaxed technique. |

Still trapped in your little English/language domain, eh? Your language reflects your world, yup, little. "Hopping around branches, how can a chickadee imagine that a condor can fly thousand miles?"-- Zhuang-Zi-- "Asses" is too sophisticated word for you; you have no assessments but denials, and that's what makes a "low intermediate" character. |

Yes, flatboarding may lose some of the ski performance of turning to carving, but it makes up with a straighter line--thus remains fast-- and skiing is more stable with the flat base. And teleboarding exemplifies these traits more vividly.

That's correct, not everyone wants to ski the "fast," "steepest," or "extreme," blah, blah, blah. The art of skiing is how to perfectly balance that centripetal force and centrifugal force and gravity so to enjoy an uninterrupted descent, interesting lines, and the ethereal body movements, etc., imo. Teleboarding is not for difficult/steep terrain in general, (though there are clips showing people do tricks and ski moguls stuff on youtube,) but on some groomed runs, slated slopes, and minor moguls/ bumps, or where a "full turn" is not needed, teleboarding, without full-blown "cross-over," may be a more efficient technique and energy saving than regular parallel skiing. What makes teleboarding techniques interesting is, as all teleing, it seeks a longitudinal stability, that's why the loose heel and low stance. IS |

IS I like it because it resembles the medium speed sideslipping and pivot drill I like to do.. Having said that, what I am working on is a very relaxed, motionless, dynamic balance in phase 111 of my higher speed steered turns. In other words, using the ski's energy instead of mine to make more aggressive turns. |
