This teaches you to stand up, to scrape/skid out your edges as a way of staying in control, to keep your weight between your skis, and to turn by u weighting from your uphill ski and weighting on your downhill ski. All of these are bad habits. You can get away with them on the piste. They will kill you in hard terrain.
