TIIE HERALD Wednesday February Cross country skiing Down Dundas but lose squeaker to North Halton novices split games A slow but sure method of ascending a hill n the parallel side step method Stand sideways to the hill with both skis parallel to one another Lift the upper ski and plant It parallel approximately towardthetopof thehtll Make sure your weight is on the upper ski with the outside edge digging into Ihe snow Now bring the tower ski up to within of Ihe upper ski with the inside edge digging into the snow Remember the always parallel to one another You have now completed one step Repeat the same process by the upper ski and once again planting it or the lower ski and so on As you become more confident and adept with this method the speed at which you ascend a hill will increase significantly Keep practising have patience ARIATIONS IN TIIL DIAGONAL STRIDE DOUBLE POLE SINGLE KICK METHOD This method differs from the normal kicking action in that both poles are planted in the snow at the precise moment when the kick takes place At the end of the glide the process Is repealed once again using the same kicking ski over and over again As your becomes more proficient and lion improves you may wish to alternate the k ski from time to time Double poling only refers to the use of the pules only to provide propulsion With the skis side the poles are planted a few inches In front of the feet Downward and backwards pressure is exerted on the poles until the arms are fully extended behind the rest of the body While the trunk or upper body may sometimes be almost parallel o the skis It Is vital to keep the head upright so that you are always looking straight As you can imagine double poling for a prolonged period of time requires tremendous This Is achieved only through The serious racer or elite cross country skiers rely to a great extent on double poling They tend to wax for glide more in the overage tourer and use a very small area of ski surface just under the foot for kicking wax When the racer is confronted with a slight upgrade and finds that double poling Is ineffective As very little wax is used weighting and becomes critical The racer must depend on nil or her superior leg strength and timing to carry him or her through this stretch of the course North Novice team finished their TrlCounty with a win Dundas and an exciting loss to their

the North Saskatchewan River Volley Then stage 11 the rise begins again A serious incline of some 1 feet met Charlie last year as he ran for us to the top of Bow Summit Again the course declined after this second summit and as running conditions Improved we were able to watch the sun rise at a The day was crisp clear and beautiful As wo proceeded to the 17th and last leg yearold Brendan took the
