I have a more advanced question and i was wondering if you could tell me anything about it....my ski coach tells us to push off of my heel and never from my balls or toes... he says never to go on the balls of your feet is this right? Whenever i ski it seems like i push off of my balls of my feet. if anyone could help my please REPLY!!!!

@isaacwright33 There are lots of opinions out there. I believe the final stage of the power phase in classic skiing involves shifting your centre of gravity forward and onto the ball of your feet and onto your toes for the final push down. In order to close the wax pocket on a properly fitted classic ski your wieght needs to be forward.--Saul
