Good video! The last drill of over-exaggeration seems to contradict the previous drill where you pointed out that overextending the pole push is not desired. Please explain. Thanks!
Hey Bob, the previous drill is only meant to be a drill that helps learn how to do that initial crunch to fully engage your core. Then you would want to extend a bit more for actually skiing. The over-exaggeration drill is meant to help skiers get their hands up higher as they usually lose out on some power with their hands too low. Hope this helps clarify that!
Thanks, PM! I’m really enjoying my Hjul skate roller skis here in Texas (but only early in the morning due to the heat!).
I like the pink shirt, where did you get it?
