If you don't get it from these shots, you simply have no idea about what it is.
The clearest example for what? Why do you need a new example, I think my example was every bit as good as this one. For a brief moment I thaught you were backing me but only to find out that you are ranting without any explanation. But cut through the chees, what are you implying I dont get? That skis are being pulled back in that 3rd picture? Let me ask you something, are you saying his hips are not behind his legs because that is one part of this discussion? His left ski is off the snow. This means that there is no excess pressure on the cuff. If there was his skitip would be pressing down on the snow. All Im saying is that if the relese is so aggressive that it creates float where skis are off the snow or with very little pressure and knees are flexed as deeply as in bolters photos then the skier goes through a brief moment of very sencetive for aft balancing where skis are ahead of the hips and needs to be pulled back under hips when pressure returns and as outside leg gets long again during upper c and onwards. This is why some call us being in the back seat.
