The other reason I love tree skiing is so far in my many years of saying that PMTS is a uncomplete skiing teaching system not one person has been able to show me on my own tuff they can ski with out using any active rotary and still make the run. I also love it because the mental/tactical aspect of it is so specialized that I can only think of a half dozen people I have ever met who can ski woods at my speed or greater and be consistent with it run after run.  Not only do you have to have a mastery of all the skills including rotary but you have to either have to be able to react quicker than you can actually think. I would be bored senseless with out it.

Has anyone tried?

Not to sound rude or anything, but I'd imagine the folks who can ski the stuff you ski without active rotary wouldn't really care about the opinion of some random guy on the internet.  They're probably too busy skiing and coaching to be bothered with it.

I also think the "no active rotary" thing is a bit overblown and misunderstood, but that's a conversation for a different day.
