This is a cool video I found from YouTuber Rickhardfi.
This video shows 5 passes of the same downhill and corner during the classic mass start race on stage 5 of 2020 TDS.
Things to note:
- Look how relaxed Klaebo is while gliding into the downhills. While other skiers are tense and snow-plowing he is able to stay more upright, relaxed, and clear more lactic acid that way.
- He often goes for the outside line going into the corner then inside line skiing out into the uphill
- Great example of how to pole hard and carry speed out of a corner
- Great example of aggressive but legal skating technique during a classic race
