XCSO Intro to Skate Skiing!

Learn the basics of skate skiing with Jordan!

Great video! It is amazing how you can fit years of learning and experience into just 7 minutes. Really mastering the techniques showcased here could take many seasons for the casual person that's not hitting the trail every day after work. I think the key to mitigating frustration and a desire to just quit is consistency and accepting that you will fail many, many times before it all comes together. I'm struggling so much with this right now - but I'm not giving up!

Thank you for this video. I saved it to my reference videos. I am a beginner skate skier and this is very helpful.

[@NamoiyKristoffersen]

[@crosscountryskiontario]

We are thrilled to hear this!

[@InsideOutElectronics]

I think offset technique here need better explanation

[@ericksonjustinAK]

A split screen comparing the different techniques side by side, occasionally stopping frames, would really help.

[@joshhead9368]

Can this be done iff trail?

[@DavenH]

What's the technique where you single-pole with the opposite arm as ski?

[@priscillah.3418]

DevenH I'm just learning here, not an expert, but my impression is that that pattern happens with classic cross country skiing but not skate skiing.

[@z0uLess]

@@priscillah.3418 no, you can do that while skate skiing

[@marc-andredodson3928]

@DavenH A bit late, but it's diagonal skate. He didn't cover it in the video.

[@alexj7440]

@@marc-andredodson3928yeah, but that’s used in classic xc skiing not skate

[@z0uLess]

I dont see the difference between Offset and 2-Skate

[@runnerwatch2280]

Or in any of the first three 😂

[@PostcardsfromAlaska]

Yep. Me too. What are we missing?

[@z0uLess]

@@PostcardsfromAlaska Well, he said it was a difference of timing between the cadence of shifting your weight and the cadence of pushing off with your poles. My comment was more of a challenge to the video creator and not really a belief that I was missing something.

How the heck can you balance yourself?? It looks so easy , but I found out that it's only easy falling down. 😢😢😢😢

[@whocares_bear]

7:09 and poke the skier's eyes out behind you? Should be called the "liability technique"

Who came up with this crap
