left palm up...

right palm down, vice versa. I've never thought that it really mattered which way palm was up for slalom.
I have been converted. For left foot forward, right palm up and vice versa. After 10 years, I have switched and I regret not switching years ago. I used to have a strong pull through the wakes on my on-side, and only hope not lose pull on my off-side. After switching, I can get just as strong a lean in either direction. Running my hardest pass this morning was the official conversion event. I now preach opposite palm up to foot forward for all the new slalom skiers I teach. Let it be written, let it be gripped.

No pics yet,I'm waiting for Leah to email them to me.
