Nevertheless, the new gear also enables advanced experts to ski better. I don't see it. You don't? Haven't you seen any ski-films lately?? The pros ride much steeper stuff, go faster and one can see that they "smear" their turns when necessary. I'm pretty certain the new equipment is instrumental in making this possible. I think it makes advanced look like experts maybe. Yes, and I think it's making some experts to super-experts |

We're talking micro adjustments here. But I feel like I still drive my shins forward in powder. But there's a feel you get from the tips flexing upward that you have to be sure not to "overrule". I use a macro adjustment when it comes to powder take the boots off go to hot tub. If it is an all day thing would go sledding with my son. My experience is that it is brutal on my knees and rather opposite of the skiing I desire to do. In to speed and g-force and smashing into plastic poles. Was waiting for our netkook to announce that he skies tips pointed down in powder actually. |

Yes, Chai-tea. An entirely different clip presented later does show powder skiing. It doesn't make the clips presented earlier any different. Oh yeah, now you've specified your "standard," let's try the "fact" of the first clip again, @:48 onward, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diKD08dqj0I That wasn't the first clip. This was: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-HnaOGRM1Y And there is no powder skiing in it. That clip was to introducing the "teleboarding," not necessarily "teleboarding in powder," and the previous clip was subsequently used to show how teleboarding "works in powder" before you jumped in. Regardless, what's the "fact" of the "teleboarding works in powder" now? 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? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKLWnGrrGAU From 00:48 to 1:45 is definitely real powder skiing. 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? If you're asking if untracked powder is the easiest snow condition in which to ski... ...the answer is no. To your skills, maybe, care to show how you powder skiing? 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. Oh yeah, now you've specified your "standard," let's try the "fact" of 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? Since even in that clip, the snow never gets over his knees, it's pretty clear that it is at the most about 14 - 16" deep. Not really powder. Whatever; I think your definition of "powder" is very narrow, what depth your powder skiing begins, and why? Ok, Mr. shameless LOL. LOL So shameless it goes. snowbender -- Alan Baker Vancouver, British Columbia |

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. 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? 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. 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****. You bottom out continuously in 6" of snow light enough to be powder skiing if it's deeper. Not in sierra cement powder (if such term is valid), nevertheless, "normal" powder skiing techniques are still applicable. 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. 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. Nope. And that isn't powder. The fact that your depth in the snow doesn't change with the phase of the turn you're in demonstrates that you're skiing on the compacted snow beneath the loose snow. No, Flatboarding(tm)/line-skiing, can turn any time, has no "turn phase," so your little knowledge wouldn't apply. Anyone who thinks that one can use technique to ski each of them... What are the "'technique' differences" again? Look above. Rebutted. LOL ...is deluded. Or this thought is deluded? Nope, but you are. Of course you think so, Mr. deluded. LOL So deluded it goes. snowbender -- Alan Baker Vancouver, British Columbia |

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 think we were talking about balance/recovery on one foot [after a mishap] in powder skiing, not the full-blown powder skiing technique. 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. Using two skis as one "board" was one characteristics of Flatboarding(tm), and I didn't crash, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGIuQcR_Q4k Next you are going to claim that you can run in powder with tips pointed down. Why? When LAL vouched my skiing, you didn't acknowledge and run away, and yet keep coming back to make such untruthful illegitimate retarded inference; what's your point? snowbender |
