Counter acting and counter balance are tied together, one is not as strong as it should be without the other.

Funny, that was the first thing I thought when I saw the picture of Chodunsky from U.S. Nationals in the Ski Racing Magazine article. His picture is right next to Mikaela's and it is night and day. David's picture is all upper-body rotation and knee drive. Mikaela has so much counteracting that her inside hand is actually below the the gate. Chodounsky is the complete opposite. Too bad he doesn't have anyone to give him the obvious feedback on how to improve his results...
