Nice foxhole, Whistler group. And you still need to qualify double diamond run before you're qualified to accept the challenge.
For Norman, he's ok on the gentle groom when snow is good, his ski tail slip at the end
For you, I'll choose my daughter 1/2 the weight of you to compete with you on a easy groomed slope see who can ski faster.
Blah, blah, blah...
I'll take care of taichiski everywhere on the mountain and my son should treat carver from Round house to Village on the groomed.
Ok, let's settle this, Eastbowl Woods, Heavenly, Chinese downhill, $5,000usd cash, (according that your statement, "I'll take care of taichiski everywhere on the mountain," so here's the challenge), You can set the date.

Do you remember Lindsay's reply? She was asking why we don't all alpine skier gaining on their weight "if" weight really give them the claimed advantage.
If you look at the chart again, we have male around 180-190. That's not far from normal male weight, even when compare to Asian 180-190 is not abnormal (I'm 190lb). US female team is obviously on the heavy side if you compare to Asia women. :)
Your example of 200cm NBA player doesn't stand since 2m so far away from normal height.

pku 寫:I'll choose the run on Heavenly , not you . For sure one double black, one Black bumps run, one groom . 3 runs.
That will be too easy, at $5,000usd per run, don't think that you can affort it, and Heavenly Eastbowl Woods covers all your requirements, double black trees on the top, double black moguls in the middle, straight away/groomed at the bottom, and easy in and easy out, so it is one run covers them all. The runs I specified are pretty much what you can expect typical terrain/skiing at Heavenly, so choose carefully, your money.
And you still have to qualify the double diamond run first. To qualify the double diamond run, do what I did, wear a helmet camera, make a reference shot to the double diamond entry, then make a run, top to bottom, none-stop. After you've qualified, then you can continue to talk about PK with me. Before that, your Whistler group remains a shameless BS group.

Since you like to keep raising the bet, I'll give bet $50,000.00 to ski on the run I did in 53 second, $50000.00 can cover all your expenses.
The thing is I don't wear a helmet. Did you ever see I ski with a helmet.
One more thing, how can you prve you got $15000.00 cash, I don't thing a poor man making excuse of having not even $1000.00 and now boost $5000.00 especially US is getter poorer now.

Looking at the chart, for 190 lb and up male skiers, they are mostly over 6 feet tall, and I bet that they are all muscles and very little fat.
Also have you seen most of the women WC skiers that their thigh must be at least twice as big as 'normal' Asia girls of the same height.
Doing GS, SG or downhill requires, not only techniques, but stamina and physical strength as well.

Observer summarized a lot and I totally agree.
Lelo, all I originally said is "weight is just a little factor in going down faster and getting tired quicker". My statement was a reply to your comment saying that you could go down a slope faster compare to the TW L2 instructors because of your weight. My feeling is that the TW instructors are good in skiing effectively (using various methods). If you aren't skiing effectively, you getting tired quickly.

Maybe beside "用力煞車", there are better way to do speed control. Have you talk to your TW instructor friends? We all want to ski effectively and that's one of my major goal.
"Good skiing means skiing a slow enough line as fast as you can, when you can."

I think Bob Barnes' "ski the slow line fast" is a bit too "advance" for lelo.
lelo, You should make your turns rounder instead of going straight and then try to brake. And also try to "finish" each turn before going to the next. That means your turn should go a bit uphill at the end of each turn (before it comes to a complete stop).
Or go to a ski trip with Ader for him to look at your skiing. Ader is a CSIA L3.

I remember he mentioned that Ader was on his trip. He only skis a few days a year so I guess his muscle is never conditioned good enough.

Wedge lets one brake in tight space. It is useful in the lift line. It is also good for pre-jump speed check if space is tight.

為了爭個自己口顛,「傾家當產」有所不惜? Lucky you, I don't do "gapper's challenge," you're still going to lose, and the run you did does not meet the "all-mountain ALPINE skiing" criteria, but the run I've shown does.
The thing is I don't wear a helmet. Did you ever see I ski with a helmet.
What a lame excuse. You don't need the helmet to use a helmet cam; there are head straps or body harness for it. If you don't know how to use a helmet cam, ask B2L2. And you better start to learn wearing helmet, you'd need it to go where we might be going,

The same question I might have asked you, given you Canadian have a smaller dollars; nevertheless, why bother? We "non-gappers"/真人 說話算數, need no proof. The bet was "one" run to see which one of us is "faster," not "better," for which you have already lost, and all I need is to win the first around, and yes, you're going to lose them all. That's your requested proof. Game?

You are making people laugh. You should not be on those steep runs. You don't have the technique because all you do is travserse. You ruin the name of line-skiing. Why don't you use your energy to improve your skiing while there is still time. This will be non-augument next year if you ca improve. You can easily put in 30 more days to do this.
I know what is going to be your response. Please say something creative

That is interesting and strange that Ader want you to "...加強練習 up-down 的動作,這樣轉彎更圓,就能控制速度了..."
The up-motion should be very little, and from ankle and knee joints and less upper body -- this is just to 'lighten' the skis making it easier to start the next turn. But it should not help you to control speed.
My suggestion is for you NOT to rush and pivot your skis quickly at the start of the turn. Give it time, and then slowly try to steer the ski across the hill and FINISH the turn -- that will slow you down. If you really steer the skis up the hill you can even come to a stop.

阿德應該沒這麼講吧?我不很確定,因為我聽力有點問題,不過上課主要在改進 up-down 的動作。
