Points for Diagonal Skate (Skating Technique)

Use the same leg action, arm action, and body movement as in the free skate.
To provide pole push, use the poles as in the herringbone.
Slight upper-body flex adds body weight to pole action, as does the roll of the shoulders.
The recovery ski contacts the snow on edge on steep uphill terrain.
The V gets wider as the hill gets steeper.
Keep the hips in front of the ankles.
The end of the push of the left leg coincides with the end of the push of the right arm.
Use a fast tempo to maintain glide.
