    This video explains body position and how the body moves in V2 skate skiing (One Skate technique in Canada, or Skate 2 in the UK). Understanding how the body works in V2 Skate skiing is the key to effortless skiing because the core of the body powers both the pole push and the leg push. If you find V2 Skate Skiing challenging, you probably need to focus more on body position and the core of the body and worry less about the poling and the leg push.
    This is an excerpt from an Nordic Ski Lab course that explains V2-One Skate technique in full. Nordic Ski Lab is a low cost subscription website, filled with premium videos for skiers and coaches interested in competition-style cross-country skiing.

    so beautiful- as a former competitive XC/skate skier, we always said "less is more" and great technique is about slowly, gradually honing your motion to remove every tiny extraneous movement. Thanks for posting.

    Hi Kim! I've watched the longer explanation of this technique on your website, it's good to see a more concise explanation. Keep up the good work and we're praying for snow!

    I like the explanation and the side & front videos for analysis. Also, we actually see the pelvis back, but over the feet and countered by the forward upper body. This pro can do that because she is moving fast and never sits back on her heels. A beginner would want to bring the pelvis forward more, and keep it there. Otherwise riding in the back seat will happen.

      @@NordicSkiLab OK, so today the trails were amazing, so I was able to focus on technique.
      I could finally feel the sweet spot where the body is in the right place to maximize the push and the glide. It’ll take some getting used to as I’ve been relying on the V1 for years. But I can tell that it matters that you put down a flat ski to start the glide.
      So yeah, the video did the best job of explaining the V2.
      One problem with skiing where I am is that there are no real teachers/mentors. Everyone is just out there doing it for themselves, or possibly afraid that you’ll beat the at the next race if they tell you too much.

    Wonderful examples and tutorials. I'm probably going to sign up for XC Ski Nation to view your other material.
    You do a great job explaining what's going on with the correct form, but I agree with the other comment that it would be super helpful to show some negative examples of what things look like when they go wrong and how it impacts efficiency.

    A really good video of a wonderful movement I am starting to feel comfortable with myself (2nd season now that I am mainly V2-ing or one-skating.. I just love it above any other movement).
    One question I have: my V2 is *best* on well groomed trails. This is when I feel most confident of raising my entire body and making it lean forwards.
    However the trails are not always freshly groomed. Many a times I find trails heavily used already, or a bit frozen - and on these I feel less confident to place all my weight on the front end of my feet. I've had a few falls, becoming wobbly, going over the (outer) edge of ski, losing balance. My question is: how can I train for more balance?
    I now have a stiffer (carbon cuff) boot, which really helped me feeling more secure. Also tightening the shin strap helps.. but there are limits. The wobbly sensation under the foot remains when trails a bit icy, or heavily used.
    Surely more time on the skis helps.. but still, would be grateful for any tips on drills etc. ! Thank you!

      I think probably the biggest limiting factor for V2 is timing. Keeping on it. And actually if the snow has a little give, in my experience, keeping the timing becomes a bit easier, particularly compared to really fast conditions and fast snow.

      @j.e.h.7578 Год назад +1

      In my experience the conditions are also a mental factor. So I would - if you're open to that - work with affirmations like 'I'm confident stepping onto my ski" or "I feel save and stable in my ankles", etc. and try an internal view where your discomfort is situated...

      ​@@edwardfregeau721 I mean it's less exhausting and puts fewer strain on your body if you do it properly. 99% of people dont V2 at all. All they know is V2 Alternate and maybe free skate downhill. And they only ever do it one sided. That's horrible for your body posture.

    thanks for your great videos !
    How would you describe your arm movement and especially your pole guiding/hands opening vs not when reaching hip level ? I do not mean V3 (what we in Europe call active armswing) but V2 at a relatively high frequence where lots of power is transfered through bending the upper buddy/arms/elbows using abdominal muscles. Thanks !!

    Good video... CLEARLY demonstrates a FUNDAMENTAL FLAW, one even some national level athletes have that haunts what looks like good technique. (look at 0:31, 2:05, 4:21, 4:58, 5:17 GROSS external hip rotation of the trail leg) Bio-mechanically it is exactly what you want your athletes to avoid... but otherwise an good piece on skate technique. COMPARE to Ivan B, there is limited external rotation at the hip, mostly a side push.. IB, Bio-mechanically near perfect

    • @DmitriPisarev
      @DmitriPisarev 5 лет назад +2

      As I understand, that's just a modern technique, that emphasises continues weight transfer with no static glide phase, contrary to the old techniques with descrete stages for squat-push-glide.

      Now back to my point. Free skate is Great for what it can teach you. But a big part of V2 is timing. My whole point was that in free skate you are not developing that element of technique.
