Anyone whose fibula rotates in his hip joint is too messed up anatomically to stand, much less ski.

I never had this burning sensation until today where I started to focus on keeping the uphill ski on LTE by holding uphill leg tipping tension while tipping the free foot to LTE.
I also practiced Diana's brush turn video where one of the exercises is to do a o frame side slip.
I find that holding the uphill ski on LTE takes a lot of muscular effort.
Am I doing it wrong or my tipping muscle is just under-utilized?

The reality is that when you ski with correct PMTS movements you are engaging and using large numbers of muscles and you are working them hard. Just maxing out CA at the end of every arc requires serious effort and engages the entire core area and taxes it significantly. So yes the effort involved in tipping, progressively tipping more throughout the arc requires muscular effort that will feel quite significant especially if you aren't used to it.
