4 Tips - How to Cross Country Ski

In this quick video tip, David Lawrence shows you four key elements to cross country skiing, diagonal stride. Classic skiing is the easiest ski technique to do, it is one of the hardest techniques to master! Compared to skate skiing, which is hard to learn but easier to master. Although I give four tips, you only need to learn 3 key components to cross country skiing, either skate or classic. These are:

• Push-Off
• Weight Transfer
• Glide

The fourth important component to the 3 tips above, BODY POSITION.

That's it. I know it sounds too easy, but I think you will enjoy the video that puts it all together for you.
