1. Can you describe rotary and rotation?
   

1. Can you describe the amount of ski tip lead(or counter) as a function of slope steepness/turn shape/speed?
   

1. When do we ski countered and when square? Turn shape, edge angles, terrain, something else…? (*new Dec-09*)
   
   

2. If square skiing requires more knee angulation, should not it be avoided to protect knees? (*new Dec-09*)
   

3. What situations while skiing the Whole Mountain justify use of counter rotation? (*new Dec-09*)
   

4. When do I want to passively ski into counter, and when do I want to create that counter myself, right at the beginning of the turn? (*new Dec-09*)
   

5. While skiing into counter, when do we start to execute the pelvic shift, when it should be in place? (*new Dec-09*)
   

6. Does Inside Leg Extension require pelvic shift in transition. Should ILE be used while skiing into a counter? If not then what should power up the transition? Outside Leg Relaxation? Does skiing into counter call for OLR? (*new Dec-09*)
   

7. Why would I ever want to ski rotated? (*new Dec-09*)
