Eco Mode
Today’s work was on completing the turns using the outside/downhill ski to lift the body up and out of the end of the turns. This is effective in using the energy built up during the turn and so is less tiring than using leg retraction followed by a push from the uphill leg.
It’s necessary to be able to complete turns with different movements patterns – the full rage goes from leg retraction, just letting the ski lift the body up and out of the turn on the straight outside leg to literally jumping up.
Economy Mode is using the ski to lift you out of each turn – but it makes getting from edge to edge slower.
