Regarding the article linked above.

How often is a skier standing still on a flat slope?


Max:  I can see they need a reference point.  But I also believe that it's hard to do this statically and that on the snow is far superior.


My question is the assumption that the Center of Mass should be over the center of the ski??  I know of binding mounts with the BOF (ball of the foot) over the COR (center of the running surface), but I thought/assumed that you wanted your center of mass somewhere over the front of the ski in order to bend it (more?).


At least in my mind that's a goal, maybe its a goal because my center of mass is well behind too much of the time.
