As I understand it, in order to ski up the rungs you must be supported by rungs 1 and 2, touch rung 3 and release rung 1, in that order. That is my concern; in order to meet the requirements of the rules, you must NOT touch rung 1 when you begin touching rung 3. That leaves you balancing on only rung 2. I don't see how that would work, but maybe I'm missing something.
