Patmaster Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Help needed ballers! Got my ski to do a killer off-side, but on-side is slightly hesitant. Afraid to change much not to mess everything up! What would be the slight change to make, just to make the on-side a tad more aggressive? 3 days to the tournament. I'm on hard-shells so I can rotate both boots, move fwd-back, and of course there is the fin...any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skosney Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 If your off-side is killer, I'd start with moving the fin forward which should tighten the on-side turn radius. It is always a bit of a balancing act sometimes to adjust one side and not through off the other. This particular adjustment worked well for me just last week for a similar scenario.

skosney Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Moving the rear binding back was a big help for me as well on my on-side to keep me from falling back and almost slam-dunking at finish of the turn. Definitely worth a try in the quest for an improved on-side turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Waternut Posted June 19, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 19, 2014 Same thing happened to me. Moved the rear binding back and it helped a lot without sacrificing off side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Neely Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Rear binding back, Rear binding rotated toward little toe, Fin forward, Reduce fin surface area. All these will help on-side but with various impacts in other areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
