Thank you for watching and commenting! Tahoe has been going through quite the heat wave this summer, so I miss the snowy backgrounds as well, haha! Hope you're doing well and having a great summer :)
Tried Cross Country skiing for the first time and realized I have some work to do. Thanks for giving me things to work on when I can't get out on the snow!
You're welcome 👍 Glad I could be of service ☺️ Hopefully you'll get snow soon enough so that you can practice on actual xc skis. Cross-country skiing is definitely challenging, so let me know if you ever have any questions.
You're welcome, Vanessa :) Sorry I wasn't able to produce much of anything (by way of TH-cam content) this summer. I had high hopes, but with getting back to my full-time summer schedule I just couldn't seem to carve out enough time to make more videos. Anyway, I really appreciate you tuning in :)
Hey Roger, Thanks for watching, and for the question! Realistically, I'd use almost the same length pole for dryland training as I would for actually classic xc skiing on snow. So, measure up from the ground to somewhere between the armpit and top off the shoulder (cm). That said, most collapsible hiking poles (which I use in the summer) only extend to about 140-145cm. So if you're tall, they're probably not going to extend to the right height. Even further ... I don't worry too much about having my pole length exact or identical to what I actually use when skiing. I usually just get the pole so that it's long enough for me to plant the tips behind my feet when walking/hiking/running so as to mimic the arm swing of classic xc skiing. It's not necessarily a 1 for 1 translation (dryland to snow), so I try to honor the spirit of the movement but not try to replicate it 100% precise. I suspect that was way more confusing of an answer than it needed to be 😏 so let me know if you want me to clarify anything. Thanks again for tuning in 🙏

Thanks for the video Jared, great exercises. I miss the snowy background ;-)

Clear, no nonsense, focused. Thank you.
Thanks, Lindsay! I appreciate the feedback 🤗

Thanks a lot!
Nice nature! Where is it?
Thank you for watching 🤗 I filmed this video on the west side of South Lake Tahoe, near Echo Peak.
Hi Jared, here from Catalonia, could you answer me what kind of size you use for dry trainning: xc ski poles or nordic walking poles ?
