Quite contrair my good friend Mike...technique has not vanished it's just evolving...just take a look at people on this site who have bared their souls. I truly believe much may be gleamed from the comments and self expressions of those here.

The key is to find what makes you feel solid on your skis, what allows you to ski confidently terrain you desire to ski and to look as pretty as you can doing it. Whether it's your skis or your technique or a combination thereof....as far as being pretty.....wearing a cool ski outfit works. 

I would dare wage a guess you my friend Mike are suffering the "Ski Withdrawal Blues"! 

Given the rain we've been having, those darn cloudy days and the 24" of snow the Sierra's got today....if I could I'd be on a plane to the mountains or Florida to golf.

Finally, I believe as I read what you wrote, you ARE looking for ways to improve your skiing and that in itself is KEY! Ski with good skiers that you want to emulate...ask them how they do what they do thus increasing the ski skill tools you have iin your bag. Keep smilin' brother cause it ALWAYS get's better!  G
