Greg, you want to see what shin pressure looks like, that is it right there. He is one hell of a skier. I can only dream of pulling that off.

Alan stays on the balls of his feet like no other skier I know.
IMO thats one of the keys.... staying on the balls. Over at epic, I heard an oldie but goodie on getting the hip forward.... try squeezing the cheeks together (i'm not talking about the cheeks on the face) imagine trying to hold a $100 bill between the crack. The muscle contraction forces the hip forward.
Im gonna try that although times are tough with xmas shopping and all...wonder if a $20 would work lol
