One-legged ski (one board)

First, we’ll begin with one-legged ski

Skiing scene

Please watch the video first as you may not have seen the one-legged ski, have you?

Only with one-leg, you ski alternating the edges right and left.  Alternate in-edge and out-edge.

from the front

I’m skiing on the right leg in this video.

It’s easier when the right foot is the “bottom” i.e. you ride on the in-edge (inside the center of your body–big toe side) , but more difficult when the right foot become the “top” foot i.e. you ride on the out-edge (outside your body–little toe side).
You must incline the hips and the knees extremely to the “bottom”, the head and the upper body to the “top” or you’ll fall down to the “top” because the out-edge bite the snow surface.

Chasing view

the video of a chaser

Inside-leg ski.  Alternate the board.  Out-edge throughout.

from the front

You alternate the board.
You normally ride on the “in-edge (big toe side)” of the outside board of the turn.
Opposite,
You ride on the “out-edge (little toe side)” of the inside board of the turn throughout.

Incline the hips and the knees to the “bottom”.
Incline the head and the upper body to the “top”.

and

Incline the hips and the knees to the “outside of the turn”.
Incline the head and the upper body to the “inside of the turn”.

The head and the upper body unnaturally incline to the inside of the turn, but this is the basic attitude of the “inside-leg ski” “Monoski” therefore you must consciously make this attitude and position.

Chasing view

“Inside-leg ski” from chaser.

Opposite to the normal ski,
Do Watch care that

The hips and the knees incline to the “outside of the turn”.
The head and the upper body incline to the “inside of the turn”.

Or you’ll fall down to the inside of the turn (little toe side) as the “out-edge” bite the snow.

Next practice~One-legged ski. Side-slip (on the slope)
