Part II
Before the beginner makes the attempt to ski, he should see that his
complete outfit is perfectly suited to his purpose. The shoes
should be nicely adjusted to fit snugly between the metal toe plates
of the binding, and new holes should be punched in the straps
wherever needed to adjust the harness snugly and comfortably to
the feet. Many of the positions required in executing the various
turns and swings may be practiced at home, that the novice may get
some idea of the correct position of the feet and body assumed by
expert skiers. For the initial practice outside, it is a good plan to
select a frosty day when the snow is old and settled by the wind.
This will introduce the novice to the sport under favorable conditions,
while if the first trials are made shortly after a heavy snowfall, or
upon a mild day when the snow is thawing, only discouragement will
be experienced. Begin with one stick—or two if timid—and pick out
an easy-sloping hill with a gradual run to the level ground. A few
scattered trees and rocks will do no harm, for it is a good plan to
learn how to avoid them from the beginning.
When traveling uphill, the regular sliding gait will suffice if the
slope is gradual, but when a steep grade is encountered and the ski
slips backward, the skier stands quite erect, raises the point of his
ski about 3 in., and slaps it down smartly, without pulling it backward
or making any attempt to push his body forward with the stick. This
slap of the ski makes the smooth surface of the runner adhere better
than when the runner is slid forward in the usual manner. If the hill is
very steep, the skier will naturally place his skis at right angles rather
than permit the slipping backward. This is known as “side-stepping,”
and is shown in Fig. 5. In doing this, the heel of the ski must be
raised clear of the snow and the upper foot lifted uphill, then the
lower foot brought up to the last step of the upper foot, hence it is
extremely tiring for other than a short distance.
A variation of this movement, which is known to skiers as the “half
side step.” and which is made by advancing the foot with the legs
somewhat wider apart, and the skis placed at not quite so acute an
angle with the hill, is more useful when climbing the ordinary steep
grade and is far less laborious. If the skier knows how to handle his
implements, side-stepping may be done backward when necessary.
The “herringbone” is another step which is much used when the
skier wishes to travel up a short and steep incline. This step is made
by stretching the legs rather wide apart and pointing the toes out, as
shown in Fig. 6, at a decided angle, so that the knees are bent
inward and the inside edges of the skis cut into the snow. A variation
of this is the “half herringbone,” the skis being turned out at a less
acute angle. These special steps for special purposes are all useful
now and then in mountain climbing, but when a long distance is to be
covered, the skier will conserve his energy by mounting the hill in a
zigzag fashion rather than attempting to climb straight up. The track
of the skier will then resemble the course of a boat tacking through a
narrow inlet against a head of wind, and while more ground is
covered than when going straight up the steepest part of the hill,
progress is faster and much hard work is avoided.
When running straight downhill, one ski should be in advance of
the other a few inches, and the skis must be held quite close
together so that they touch, or nearly so, as shown in Fig. 7. To
make a narrow track, most expert skiers hold the knees together with
the back knee slightly bent. However, the body should be perfectly
and easily balanced. This is done, more or less, intuitively, by
beginning the run with the body thrown on the advanced foot, and
when full speed is attained the weight automatically shifts to the rear
foot. The novice will find it difficult at first to keep the skis together,
there being an almost uncontrollable desire to separate them to gain
a better balance. A good track will come with a little practice, but if
the skis are too short, or made without a groove, even an expert
would be compelled to keep his feet a trifle apart and make a double
track in order to keep from falling.
