I have been doing mute grabs for ever, but I just realised I have been doing them wrong, and it makes sense now that I think about it. So what do you guys do to get the 5 finger grab in?

sorry I don't think there's a cure for being mute.

Just found out thats my problem, I was grabbing my wrong ski, so I was unable to pull, and was trying to twist my ankles with out pulling.

Five finger grab, why? I usually use two fingers.

I use 2-4 fingers but never 5. What I would suggest to you is to try and bring the ski you're grabbing up toward you just an inch or two more. It will make it easier for you to get all of your fingers around it. But don't be worried about how many fingers you're using. As long as you can keep the ski in the grab, you're fine.

Alright, I have not been pulling up those extra inches. That sounds like part of my problem, thanks.
