After coming back from the camp this week I am thinking through a lot of the things I have learned and trying to figure out the context of everything. I have a few questions that I would like to get some clarification/answers on from the PMTS veterans on this board.
1) One Footed Release:
a) This is the phantom move/super phantom move correct?
b) This is basically ending a turn and setting the little toe edge of the previous inside foot down and lightening/lifting/tilting the previous stance foot (becomes the new inside foot) and pulling it back to get forward on the ski’s?
c) This release can be used whether brush carving or edge locked carves correct?
d) The majority of the weight is on the stance foot correct? (90% or more?) Under what circumstances might this increase/decrease one way or the other?
2) Two Footed Release:
a) This is the basis for the BPSRT? Is this basically because you don’t have enough time to make a distinct one-footed release in steeps or ungroomed terrain?
b) Are the ski’s continually weighted about 50/50? Under what circumstances might this increase one way or the other?
c) This release can be used whether brush carving or edge locked carves?
3) When practicing railroad tracks on flat terrain this would be considered a TFR?
4) When is it preferable to use a TFR over a one footed release? I can definitely see a one-footed release with some WC skiers when edge lock carving like on the dvd of ACBES 1 but I have also seen what looks like a TFR on edge lock carves as well.
Thanks in advance,
David
