If you want to ski well, forget about most of your entire body. That's right, cut all that superfluous matter located just below your eyes and a tiny bit above your ankles, then you'll see your ski life taking off like a rocket. Some purists might say “of course, by doing this you're lowering so much your center of gravity that there's no longer the possibility of taking a spill!” I'd say very good observation, but that's not quite what I meant.
My point was that the less you do with your chin, your neck, your arms, your trunk, hips and thighs, the better off you'll do on a pair of skis, so forget all about that extraneous “stuff,” shorten the communication path between your brain and the sole of your feet to speed up the flow of information where it really counts. And the poles? I forgot about those; probably overrated too! If you want to argue this assertion or don't understand the idea, just post a comment.
