Poles Across Knees eVideo

OverviewFlexing the legs in transition is a hallmark of PMTS technique. Coordinating bending your legs with the edge change allows momentum to help you start your new turn – this is smooth, efficient, and it helps you get to higher edge angles early in the turn. The “Poles Across the Knees” approach developed in this video helps you learn the movement and the timing of this flexion. It also incorporates a change of counterbalance as you change edges, and it helps you to counteract with the torso throughout the arc of each turn.StatsPresenter: Harald Harb. 20 minutes, High Def 720p, 808 MB, Copyright 2019Content*Flexing the legs at transition*Coordinate change of counterbalance with edge change in linked turns*Counteracting through turnsPurposeFlexing (bending) the legs when you change edges and start a new turn results in...*Earlier edge engagement for better speed control*Higher edge angles through the turn for better grip and carving*Quicker edge change for easier short-radius turns*
