Lär dig rullskidteknik: Spring uppför backarna med Klæbo-steget

1. Lift your knees high

Every step you take begins by lifting the knee in front of your body. This is done both to take a stride up the hill, but just as importantly to create power in the kick that follows.

2. Kick down towards the ground

It is important to get the kick under your body. This way all of your weight is driven down into the snow or asphalt, giving more power to your movement.

3. Quick return and straight into a new kick.

When you run on skis, you will of course not glide in the same way as you do with the normal diagonal technique. 

You must therefore go straight into a new kick. You do this most effectively by lifting your heel up under your butt. In that way, you’re ready for the next stride.

4. Rapid frequency

Relax your shoulders and let your arms control the frequency.

A faster frequency makes it easier to get a better grip on the surface. It is still important to have a good length on the steps to run fast.

Good luck
