Whistlermann, you're wrong, bases are faster than edges, but only when going straight. if you aren't riding a flat ski you'll be slow. BUT when you are turning thats when you use your edges to make clean arcs, and would be faster than skiding on your base. I do believe that making the varoom noise helps too.
