I remember that one... it was a classic!
Near-perfect upside down "mind-game".
Cheers!

It's OK, you are moving your CM down the slope, by pushing off the uphill leg.

... and still good (very good) CA facing down the hill.
The pole plant is a little early, but your(future) outside leg is very well extended, while your inside leg is now demonstrating great flexibility.
I can see that judging from the photo, I have a long ways to go in my learning curve.
You have raised the bar, and lowered your center of gravity - beyond duplication.
Happy 1st - now shoot the photographer!

I think we have a winner. Not me, but it seems this runs in my family...

I'll post the video of Chris [my brother] later... He earned winning the upside-down game. Afterall, he skied on his face for quite a way before his skis finally hit the snow. He's fine. Actually he'll probably use the footage to impress a girl somewhere. :lol:

Upside-down games can be quite fun - as long as it's just a few bruises and such...

Gate #1: Got it!
Gate #2: Got it too!
Gate #3: Nailed it!
Questions? Direct them directly to the skier: he walked away, scratching his but.
(I gave him a poster and had 60+ instructors sign it)
Oh yeah... I didn't say that PSIA doesn't have a good sense of humor.
