Skike and nordic cross skating technique tutorial part 3 - V2 one skate

- This is the third part of a series of skike and nordic cross skating technique tutorials.
In this episode the V2 one skate technique is explained from three different points of view.
Like the V2 alternate or two skate technique, double poling is combined with skate skiing. However, in contrast to V2 alternate, during V2 one skate, there is a double poling motion every single leg push, hence the name.

Very interesting channel, that motivates me to get the skikes out of the cellar again. 😄
Thank you! And yes, this sport deserves to be more popular!👍😁
Good to see you bringing technical tutorials on the subject!
Thanks for your comment ! 🙏
There will be more in the very near future!😁
Hi there! Thank you for a lovely introductory clip. Regrettably, timing in V2 is everything. And Im not sure your demo does reflect it. Also, how about more emphasis on really loading the glide ski, exploding into it for additional forward momentum? If v-2 is to be a power technique, we should be seeing it. Lastly, how about a compare and contrast of timing for v1 and v2??
These techniques help to understand good practice.
Thanks! I’m glad it’s helpful!
Quite a demanding technique. You look very secure and relaxed, which I always find difficult with all the upper body and arm motion going on. I can imagine, that balance becomes even more of a challenge with this unpredictable wind you're working against. Well done.
Thanks!😊 But that’s the magic of editing....don’t tell anyone..😉
nice video tutorial, thank you :) Can you please reccomend the right size of the poles? Can I use my nordic waling poles? (low quality, weight about 360g per one and height only 135cm). Or do I need longer ones? I see you have probably longer. I am 167cm. thank you very much for advice
Thanks for watching and great question!
I don’t think nordic walking poles would do the job, because the tips are very different compared to roller ski poles. For roller skiing or skiking you will need to have tips like these: www.skatepro.nl/435-36751.htm. These tips are aimed in a certain direction and sharp to provide good grip during propulsion
As a rule of thumb the length should be 0.85-0.9 x body length, so in your case approximately 145-150 cm.
I hope this is helpful!
Hi I have a set of the Skike V07 120. I also have adjustable poles. How do I set them up to the correct height, what’s the right position etc?
Thanks for watching and your question.
As a rule of thumb the correct length of the poles is 0.9 x body length for skating and 0.85 x body length for classic style.
In my case: 180x0.9= 162 cm. However a few cm shorter might be more comfortable.
@@outdoorsports6768 thanks. That’s just what I needed to know. I think I had them too short as I sometimes caught my skate with one of them, as I was moving. I’m still in the learning phase ha ha
@@stant.m4233 you’re welcome!
Great breakdown of V2 one skate. It looks like you are skating without the heel fixed which replicates skate skis on snow. Have you tried with the heel fixed and do u think that would make balancing easier ? As mentioned previously I have V9s and also road them without the heel fixed but wonder if that contributed to my injury issues. At the end of the stride when u lift the skate up it’s angled which may cause more imbalance and stress on the hip. Just a theory.
Thank you and great question! It was by accident that the heel lifted. The locking mechanism of the right skate didn’t function at that time. However, when locked or fixed the V8 still have some play. So I can’t skate with the heels fixed completely because it’s the way how the V8s have been designed.From a personal point of view I think a free heel is better. I’m not sure if it causes more imbalance or stress. Actually it might just be the opposite because the skate stays on the ground for a longer period of time and you don’t have to lift the skate completely after each stride, which saves energy.
Hope this helps?
Whoa! So how do you get the ski back to midline quickly and efficiently after you commit to the new glide, without the skate/ski/rollerski completely off the ground?? You must offload and bring the previous glide ski back to midline to commit your weight to the new glide ski in time. Otherwise you are wobbling with your center of gravity between the two sides, wasting energy and momentum. @@outdoorsports6768
