so in this video tutorial we're gonna
see one of the ways of standing up,

of course there's a million ways of
standing up, everybody has their own little technique.

To-infinitive

we're going to be
seeing a technique which i think helps the majority of people.

so the first
thing to learn is that you need to get up taking your time

don't try and stress
and get out really quickly and pretend that nothing happened okay?

because
otherwise you're gonna get up in a very strange way and probably fall again, we
don't want that to happen, do we?

The first thing is I put my skis parallel
one next to the other

I untangle my skis and I put one ski
next to the other as you can see in these images

then I need to put my skies perpendicular to the fall line

the fall line is the line that if you where to drop a ball the ball would roll down in a straight line

that is the fall line, so
we want to put our skis perpendicular to that imaginary line

so what we're gonna
do is we're gonna lift our bodyweight with our hands

and then we're gonna walk
with our hands until we touch the tips of the ski

so we lift up the weight and we walk in a semi-circle quite far away from me

you can see that my legs are almost stretched out until I touch the tips
