DVD Reviews of Nordic Ski Walking DVD
DVD Review: For skiers and skaters, not walkers
Summary: 3 Stars
This may be a good tutorial if you are a skier or skater, but the small walking portion of the DVD at the beginning lacks any verbal description of proper form and technique. For example, one should push off with the poles and then on the forward motion loosen the grip. The people doing the walking are using proper form, but there is no explanation of the kinds of subtle movements that are important to getting the best workout.
During the intro portion of the DVD, the narrator takes pains to portray using poles for walking (what I would refer to as nordic pole walking) as inferior to "Nordic Ski walking" and calls the former "newfangled".
There is also a long interview with a biathlete in the middle of the DVD that doesn't serve any tutorial purpose that I could see.
Be aware this DVD has no chapters, so there is no easy way to skip around.
