It is a honest question, why do you respond with insults instead of
answering the question?


No, I didn't insult, but you're insulted by your own failed
illegitimate questions, which were designed for insult.

You are the only one here who thinks that 6 inches of snowfall is powder
skiing, can you explain that?


I don't see the "technique" differences in skiing above 6 inches of
fresh snow.

Or are you going to quote the other loon who seems to be your only
friend and your are following his pattern of behavior by responding with
stupid unrelated comments....


Taichi is so-called "gentleman's martial art," we are more into the
philosophy instead of the techniques of the martial arts; given its
philosophical influence, so are the techniques, we don't attack unless
being attacked upon. So, if you don't intend to attack/insult, you
will not be attacked/insulted. Does that answer your question?

No, those are your shameless denials, and/or your

No, Chai-tea. They are facts.


Say it again what the "fact" is now, after your "telling the truth"
that "A lot of that is quite certainly powder skiing."


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diKD08dqj0I


No. It doesn't. It shows skiing in approximately 6 - 10 inches of loose
snow over a packed base.


Ok, "6 - 10 inches of loose snow" do not make powder skiing. Yup, I
can see why you never praise anybody's skiing, a conceited little
knowledge doesn't know any better.


That's correct: 6 - 10 inches of loose snow do not make powder skiing.

That's a simple fact.


Maybe, but I'll say questionable; nevertheless, what's the different
in "techniques" to ski them? Let's see your example of what powder
skiing is?

Or your little knowledge doesn't know what powder skiing is?


I know that it's not simply the presence of fresh snow.


Given the fact that you don't know what makes the powder snow, you
probably don't know what powder skiing is neither? See if you can see
any powder skiing in this clip,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OD5QQirJyB4


A lot of that is quite certainly powder skiing.

See: I have no trouble telling the truth.

You should try it some time.


Say it again what the "truth" is now, after "You were asked to show it

"Ok, '6 - 10 inches of loose snow' do not make powder skiing. Yup, I
can see why you never praise anybody's skiing, a conceited little
knowledge doesn't know any better."


I'm neither praising nor condemning the skiing. I'm simply stating the
facts: it isn't powder skiing.


So I've said the fact is because your little knowledge doesn't shed
the light.

In 6 inches of snow, your skis end up in contact with the firm base. In
actual powder conditions the snow beneath the skis is still soft.

Anyone who thinks that one can use technique to ski each of them...

....is deluded.

Yes, Chai-tea. An entirely different clip presented later does show
powder skiing.

It doesn't make the clips presented earlier any different.

From 00:48 to 1:45 is definitely real powder skiing.

Maybe in BC, here in the Sierra Nevada mountains 4 inches will cover
the firm base, and you won't feel the base on 6 inches. Then, again,
does that 2 inches of snow cover make different skiing?

Anyone who thinks that one can use technique to ski each of them...

1. You're simply lying or deluded if you think that you don't contact
the firm base in only 4 inches of loose snow.

2. The primary difference is that on a firm base you can easily recover
from occasional moments when your weight is not even distributed on both
feet. Get your weight on one foot for even a moment in real powder and
you're going down.

Oh yeah, now you've specified your "standard," let's try the "fact" of
the first clip again, @:48 onward,

Good powder, we don't have much of those kind of snow around here;
nevertheless, I think your definition of powder skiing is too narrow.
Is that real [untracked] powder makes the easiest snow medium to ski
with?

Say it again what the "truth" is now, after "You were asked to show it
working in powder and you didn't." But I did.


No. You didn't.

You have now, but you hadn't when that was first said.

the first clip, @:48 onward,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diKD08dqj0I"

and how about my claim that teleboarding is a new way to ski to
powder?

"Ok, '6 - 10 inches of loose snow' do not make powder skiing. Yup, I
can see why you never praise anybody's skiing, a conceited little

You may scrape the bottom "occasionally" on 4" of fresh snow, but not
on 6", and definitely not on 10", so your "6 - 10 inches of loose snow
do not make powder skiing" is only your own bull****.

2. The primary difference is that on a firm base you can easily recover

That maybe your problem, but not mine,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0W6rrz1Tw4k

Real [untracked] powder is supposed to be the most easy snow medium to
ski with, you should be able to hold on/balance it with one foot.

Anyone who thinks that one can use technique to ski each of them...

Rebutted.

Of course you think so, Mr. deluded.

Every professional skier that I have talked to says you move your skis
in parallel in powder. That skiing with just one foot weighted leads to
crashes.
I ski on one foot and transfer weight between them it does not work in
powder, you will crash.

I would like somebody else on this list to agree with you that you can
use two skis and make one lighter just using one ski than the other in
powder and not crash.

Next you are going to claim that you can run in powder with tips pointed
down.
