So how do you explain the photos recently posted that shows very little pressure (if any) on the front quarter of the ski?lowangle al wrote: ↑Tue Jan 17, 2023 12:40 pmWith the lead ski you can get more weight on the front of ski by putting more weight on your toe than your heel. Even without a cable you are getting some forward weighting (tip pressure) on your ski because you are weighting the ski forward of boot center.
So believe it or not you are getting some tip pressure on every turn with a properly weighted rear ski.
And how do you explain comments like this?

But hey, who cares about cables and flexors? The truth is, I have 5 pairs of XP skis and I have completely removed the flexors on all of them. Never felt so free on skis before! (The anti-ice plates do help a bit to prevent snow buildup...)
Grace, technique and finesse, not cables, springs and flexors!
