I'm not sure if I understand the difference from old school and modern sking style. I am a very strong recreational skier with no formal training so I am not aware of all the terminology. I basically have always gotten by with my athleticism. I will skid sometimes on purpose not by mistake, sometimes I'll carve a hard sharp turn. My legs are always together....when I say together I mean they are attached at the heels. There is little or no seperation between the feet. However, if I bust out some serious speed I will definitely widen my stance for stability. Explain to me what's the differnece between old and new school style.
