There is a practical point to all this. Why try to learn two different ways of skiing when one "PMTS system" will serve you in all conditions with the same movements? If you extend like the guy in the video; you will get eaten alive in bumps and steeps. On easy, blue groomed runs, sure you have time to extend because you won't pick up much speed and you have room to make larger arcs and turns. Harb Ski Systems offers short turn camps because people can't make short turns. Why? Because in most cases they extend to release, like the guy in the video.
Folks, please remember, most of these skiers ski everyday most of their lives, they have time to learn how to adapt and use different techniques. Most recreational skiers ski 10 to 30 days a year, there is no way you can learn to adapt and have a different technique, (most of which don't even work) for every type of surface and condition.
