Yep they’re stiffness adjusters. Another way of thinking about bending at the ankle is shifting your feet backwards. Again, standing stationary on the flat, quickly shift both feet backwards. You’ll feel all the weight shift to the front of the ski. Keep your hands forward for balance, as though you’re hugging a bear. Getting a lesson is great, especially from a variety of instructors as different things work for different people
