Gang...I guess where I come from on all this...
I think it's more important to embelish the positive expereince of being there then the road traveled to get there.
Focusing on the technique and greatness of Harb, Clendenin along with other fine instructors, or whether you've attended their clinics or private lessons or just read their books and watched their videos in SLOW motion until each frame is burned into MY brain....whatever helps you "ski it and it not ski you" is for me what makes skiing the best thing going out there.
It's great fun to share what works for me be it skis or technique and to do so without judgement.
This brotherhood of skiing for most is about enjoying wherever and however we want to make turns. To be able to share the experience with great friends on terrain of your choice is what keeps us out there.
I know this technique thing will come up from time to time. But really, there's not one here if they're being honest with themselves that can't find some kind of flaw with any form of technique if they even care about self analyzing. But if it's technique that floats your boat or not...all the power to ya. Just be tolerant and respectful of others.
Pretty simple I think. G
