NH, USA
Ow...
My "trying this" over the years with cross country skis is NOTHING like the real, skinny, excessively slippery skate skis. One slip/fall at start, then a lot of clumsy flailing with brief, ever so brief, moments of maybe getting it. Arms and shoulders are pretty sore now.
Going to try skate skiing today. I've tried mimicking the technique with longer/clunkier nordic skis, but never with all of the right gear. This should be interesting.
Found this on YT, doesn't his voice sound familiar? (One minute physics?)
Thanks for 500 Mastadon followers!!
Coming up: weekly new trail reviews from NH, then CA. Things get a little slower around here in the winter months.
We're also branching out with a new MA rail trail map and trail reviews starting in the new year. They'll be published on Trailspotting as usual, but we also just created the Massachusetts Rail Trail group on Facebook for anyone interested .. https://www.facebook.com/groups/massrailtrails
