If you were to choose between the LENZ and the Thermic, which one would you choose?

This is to old,Try to understand that from one action is a reaction.Your body position at the start of the turn is putting you in a counter rotationThis is a breaking movement.Get rid of it.

Thanks for the review! Is there a clear winner is terms of pure warmth?

My ex and I separated years ago. Now I ski 100 days a year.

A very good observation from you is that the body weight is too much on the new inside ski during the end of the old turn. Your suggestion to solve this is wrong in my eyes. No separation can solve this issue!! One solution could be, to simply unload this ski, by lifting it up a little. An other solution is to pull it backwards, in under the body. Separation in this moment must mean, that she turns her torso more tinto the direction of the fall-line. This would never create an unloading of the new inside ski. skiingtechnique.wordpress.com

Great video for beginners, but things are always much more complicated and these videos are both right and wrong. When you start a turn it is right to have a forward body position with ankle flex and boot-tongue pressures, but when you finish your turn it is very useful to flex you knees much more, so that your body gets over your ski-tailes. You move in a traverse direction, you do not risk to lose balance backwards. The right way of not turning your skis by a shoulder rotation into the turn is not at all the same thing as the right separation. You mix up these things and it becomes hard to follow. S-shape turns must be prepared! You miss the most important part of this preparation, which is the cross over of your skis by your body. If you do not cross over your skis, you will be unable to get carved, s-shape turns. Pulling back your new inside ski is a very good idea, but this will not be enough! skiingtechnique.wordpress.com

What you show and do is very good. What you say is not as good. It is clear that what you mean when you say "lower body" is the legs. You should say that separation must happen between your legs and your torso. Separation must happen in the hip joints really, this is correct and useful, only the name you use is wrong. I know this is not your fault, PSIA is wrong about this simple anatomical knowledge. The vast majority of humans know that the hips are part of the lower body, only PSIA alone thinks that it is part of the upper body. I always say leg-torso separation. About ski-lead. You are right, ski-lead is a necessary part of separation. If your ski-lead is weak, you will have to rotate, twist your knees and this hurts the knee. There are much more reasons to separation than what you tell us.

Greg you need to have better balance on the inside leg as you are a framing

Greg. You a frame

1:50 How much?….depends on how much lead. Exactly!! This way the lower legs are interacting with each ski the same and asking for the same radius turn.

not it!!!

whats with the arms. way too posed!!!!

Great review, thank you. Which pair is the best combination of comfort and warmth? If you were to buy just one pair, what would that be?

I thought you were kidding!! How about just don’t lean back! 😅

If you are doing any of those three skiing sins in your turns and you don't make changes to correct them, you are going to hell

Don’t you want to iron in the direction from tip to tail? Allowing for some small circular motion to spread the wax?

Excellent analysis.

I bought the Adapt 2vand returned it because I though the lens was too big, that's the fashion for some young people, not for me, good customer service, I returned it for the Fathom. I was skiing, from NJ, with a large Club group, at Palisades the week of March 11.

Do you run camps?

The lines you drew really helped me see what you mean. I think I know my weight is too far back but did not realize i did not have my weight on my down hill ski. Would you say those are the 2 biggest problems ? Oh and also z shaped turn. Basically the 3 cardinal sins ! lol. I thought i was doing better on that but clearly the video shows I am not. I have one ski trip left for the season - Aspen next weekend. I have been watching a lot of your videos but this really helps me understand that even while I think I am doing it I am not. Thanks so much for your help. I really appreciate it

This is a great tutorial. Thank you so much!

Thank you for this. It is really helpful.

What’s the difference between a short turn and a z shaped turn? How do you control your speed on steeps?

Very important!!!!!!! 😊

Nice demonstration. Excellent video! Looking forward to the next video. Great content. Keep up the good work. See you KT my friend.

bro was like up and down

Great content Greg!

Full of it.

I do Stork Turns, hard but I love that drill!

By Z-turn do you mean the same as A-Framing? I've learned I'm very guilty of that....yes I'm working on it!

I can't really ski Uphill, but I think I can jive the Duck Walk, haven't seen/heard that before thanks!

Lots of Full-Body turns at Sugar Bowl yesterday. Painful to watch! Sibera's looking good I'll be over there soon. Unless my friends lead me to the KT22 bar first!

At about 6:30 into your video, a bunch of skiers passed behind you. Most were on their tails, too upright, turning their shoulders, and skidding their turns. Great way to illustrate your point! ;-)

Super helpful. I have been skiing for years but am now intent on actually learning proper technique so I am not flailing all over the hill. I appreciate your tips. Thanks

i was listening to jazz when youtube suddenly decided to autoplay this. i dont even ski

Why are you standing up tall at the end of each turn?

tail waggers rule

😍

Best hint for posture I ever got is that you should feel pressure on your shin and your weight through the heels.

idk, seems to work for Donny Pelletier

Good advice, thank you

Nuff said...Excellent tutorial.

thinking about picking these up and came across your vid, funny you’re from santa cruz i live in aptos lol

I’d also be interested in knowing if you’ve tried the Lenz batteries in the Thermic socks and vise versa? I heard they are compatible even though Lenz has an extra button which apparently isn’t used for power.

Hi Greg. Hey man. Great video! Didn't know it was you until after I watched it a few times. Thanks for posting this. See you in the Palisades locker room. Leapin Larry - Locker 184

Thanks for the review! Have you tried using thermic socks with batteries from lenz and vice versa?

copied from beginner's lesson, PMTS.

I watched a bunch of videos trying to teach upper and lower separation. This one was the best. Thanks a lot!

That is so cool! Next time I'll make a video and send it to you.
