Nordic Skiing Technique Tips - Herringbone

Maintain the weight shift, body position, arm action, and rhythm of the uphill diagonal stride. Increase both the angle between the skis and the edging on the insides of the skis. Move the legs straight uphill, and increase the V and edge the skis only enough to maintain traction.

These points are taken from "The Instructor's Manual for Teaching Nordic Skiing" put out by CANSI
