Not resistance bands. Bring in your handle, extra rops, and go over the pullup bar to some 45’s. Build slowly the amount of weight. More is not better so just get a feel of using good resistance while holding a world class position. Video or pic it for me 🙂
Check out me teaching 2005 World’s Strongest Man, Phil Pfister, to barefoot. He was 6’8” and 385lbs when I taught him�. About the 1:40 mark I go over forwards position and shoulder roll meat hook, powerband https://vimeo.com/10709850
Awesome, Greg Fossett. Practice the world’s best setup at no extra speed, then add a tiny bit of speed but not one-foot speed until you can transition back and forth to both one-foot-setups!
The Footer’s Edge love to see you back at the footing . Maybe if time do some live training with us on the water on our boats . For the guys that can’t get to u all the time . Set up some type of video training slots . Pay per hr or something like that .
Joshua Scribner I am doing this with people now by videos they send me, but I could also do it with you LIVE if you have good cell coverage. Let me know as I can absolutely help you remotely 🙂
Diana Dorflinger It would be nice. I do not do traveling clinics any more. If you ever want to get my help using my Virtual Ski School, let me know because it is really helping people around the world! https://thefootersedge.com/virtual-ski-school/
We could even do . LIVE out of the boat some time. I even had an idea to offer a couple free LIVE video instructions out of the boat. What do you think about that?

Thank you Lane for sharing all your tips! I love the vision tip you gave, so true. I’ve been trying to break my head down habit for awhile now. I use to wear a neck brace when learning front to backs since my neck was already wrecked from years of show ski barefooting!

How is your back? Once you are healthy, you can start learning the No Fall Backwards method!
Rosemary Dawn
The Footer’s Edge I need to learn the long line front method. Back feels ok but I’m sure my doc would be furious if I foot right now. ?

I know what you’re talking about, but CrossFit gyms don’t have them.. use resistant bands instead?

Can you describe bouncy trouncey and meat hook as you keep talking about it
The Footer's Edge
Bouncy Trouncy Tigger the Tiger technique is simply holding a world class position while;
1. breathing
2. relaxed grip
3. soft knees that you can bounce on like a car with bad shocks 🙂
