Even more likely, perhaps more stable in a straight line thus

Or alternatively - allowing faster speeds with the skis flat on the
snow with less chance of catching an edge. Modern teaching techniques
would emphasise that you're _always_ on one edge or the other, such
that this wouldn't be an issue.


Logical. I did find the modern things very easy, and SWMBO even more so
given her knackered knees.

I learned in Sol (but no, my name isn't Kevin) where my instructor
didn't go in to such subtleties. He was brilliant at getting total
newbies up to stem turn standard in a week though. He took us in to some
really deep powder on our last day in what he reckoned were the best
conditions they had seen all season (March 1987).
