Well there ya go...we're very close.....for me, it is like falling into the new turn, relaxing, letting it happen, the float naturally occurs between the turns...

Jumping....nope, no jumping for me. It's always the body moving down the mountain ahead of the skis. The skis stay in contact with the snow.

Jumping implies to me compression of the legs and exploding upward to a newly planted ski.

Where for me, it's relaxing the down hill leg, allowing the body to move down the mountain over the tops of the ski (float), transitioning to the new downhill ski. Smooth, silk, effortlessly.

Ron, maybe "jumping" is not the ideal word?

Still, if jumping works.....

7 days till touch down at BC...ya hooooo!
