    Hi Keith, beautiful and succint as usual. These little drills helped me nail the technique both on my right and left. Now I am trying to find your telemark turn video. Keep them coming. Regards Steve

    Would it be easier to do parallel turns and stop with combi boots with ankle support? I read that combi boots give more control when going downhill, i wonder if that’s the case

    • @k2nicol
      @k2nicol  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes they do...skate boots give most control for this sort of thing but I only have combi boots and they work fine

      I guess as well as flexing you also weight the downhill ski to progress and pivot for the turn?

      It's very different from snowshoeing. It's harder!

    soo much fun being FAT (Ma called me husky) and learning all these BC skills. Once you get that first fall out of the way, it's all downhill!

    I don't use groomed trails, its purely in the woods. What kind of skies do I need? Can I do 'skate' style with those type?

    • @alphayeti7774
      @alphayeti7774 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      dragon0085 you can do skate but it is a lot easier to do classic skiing in the woods

      look into back country skis, I think you'll be happier

      @@alphayeti7774 I know it's a 5years old comment as I disagree classic is way harder and also thougher in strength and needs more skills than skating needs. That's why people have started more skating than go classic as I love classic and going for many years of it just that style as it's more challenging than skating.

    Can you stop like this on classic skis?

    • @k2nicol
      @k2nicol  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yes- I am using waxable classic skis in the video

  • @NorthernOuting
    @NorthernOuting ปีที่แล้ว

    Can the way by using a parallel stop be applied to classic XC skis?
