Baller PurdueSkier Posted June 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 3, 2019 Why is he working so hard to run the mini course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller igkya Posted June 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 3, 2019 That was my first thought too. @Ed_Johnson What specifically should we be looking at/for in the pic, aside from a great turn at what appears to be a very short line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ MISkier Posted June 3, 2019 Baller_ Share Posted June 3, 2019 My guess would be the position of his shoulders and where he is looking/where his head is pointed. The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jimbrake Posted June 3, 2019 Author Baller Share Posted June 3, 2019 @MISkier - that's the main reason I posted it. I just love pics of onside hacks with (relatively) level shoulders and head, downcourse vision, cross-course angle, hips low, shoulders up, and the sense of the sweet acceleration he's about to get. Will's onside is legendary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Bruce_Butterfield Posted June 4, 2019 Baller_ Share Posted June 4, 2019 He turns a heck of alot better since he trimmed that beehive off his chin. If it was easy, they would call it Wakeboarding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller bishop8950 Posted June 4, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 4, 2019 @jimbrake the thread title made me think of this recent pic, which made me stop and stare. Party because it’s such a good photo and partly because it’s a killer turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skiep Posted June 4, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 4, 2019 Look off of Will's right elbow you can see the buoy. The other buoy is jump course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller jimbrake Posted June 4, 2019 Author Baller Share Posted June 4, 2019 @Booze - Yes! Love that one! That is actually what I had in mind when I saw the pic of Will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller jimbrake Posted June 4, 2019 Author Baller Share Posted June 4, 2019 I'm just a fan of heads-up skiing. I don't know how some skiers run the great scores they do tilting their heads in. Some do for sure, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
