“Shiffrinize” your skiing!

I've always been a proponent of “skiing light”.

By this, I mean skiing like a feather on snow, barely touching it, doing just the minimum of what's required in terms of gestures, stay centered and previewing the terrain just before it reaches my skis so I can expand as little energy as possible and extract the essence of the sport.

Now, we has shown she can do all of that better than anyone? Our very own Mikaela Shiffrin.

So, this is why whenever I can think of it, I picture her in my mind's eye and try to ski exactly as she would do. I said “try” of course, but the result seems great enough for me.

Isn't it time for you to also “Shiffrinize” your skiing?
