What resort is this?? Looks amazing.

I have a few pair of boots that I am trying on. They are the same 120 stiffness but one pair feel like they I push forward to easily....lets my ankles flex forward so much that it seems like on the ski hill...that over flex will hurt in the ankle joint after awhile...much like when I used to snowboard. How much should the pressure on the boot tongue be able to hold you vs your ankle/calf strength with pressure into your toes when you are getting over your toes in a correct ski stance?

Hello, do you happen to have a guide to properly exercise legs ? I notice my quads burn when I am skiing and I believe they are not properly prepared for skiing. Thanks

Now that’s the perfect sound!!

My shoulders point left and right. My chest points forward.

Been skiing in aspen for 3 years great place, small town

Thanks!

❤❤

by far the most useful video i've watched about how to tackle steep and narrow slopes as fairly new skiier.

Yeah !

Thank you. I will try to use your tip.. ummm.. interesting

The lifting of an up slope leg never helped my students to get centered on their skis, especially when going cross slope. They would go right back to their "tail wagging" position with weight back. If they hit ice, their their tails would slip out. What I discovered from my own skiing, that centering on your skis depends on how developed your lower leg muscles are. Beginners and intermediates tend to have weaker lower leg muscle control. Because of ski boot design, one can easily sit back on their boot backs, if they have little lower leg strength. And then they turn into "tail waggers." I had a lot of success in getting students centered on their skis by going back to the wedge (snow plow) position and getting them to apply pressure on their toes to turn while in wedge position. To do it right, you have to move more forward on your skis, which actually strengthens lower leg muscles and gives more control. If you sit back on your skis, you can't put pressure on your toes, you just force yourself back and put more weight on the backs of the skis. Once you get the students forward, and push down on their toes to start and maintain a turn, in wedge position, they'd gradually get more centered. Then we'd gradually transition to more parallel ski positions. And once you get them to be centered on their skis, then maintaining a carved turn gets easier with more control, THEN, you can get them to make those circular carving turns. My main problem with upper intermediate, "tail wagging" students who wanted more control, was when I insisted we go back to practicing wedge turns first and controlling turns with our toes. They weren't happy about that, with some complaining to my ski school director about it, especially in private lessons. Those skiers never did learn to center their weight on their skis. The key to getting students to do all that you say, is to get them "centered" on their skis first, which is the most difficult thing to get them to do. Once they're "centered," tilting their legs more, and all the other advanced maneuvers becomes possible.

You need to explain the fall line to those who don't understand.

Quick question please - if the front boot straps are done really tight - as normally told - there is little or no movement to allow to squish the strawberry - are you promoting the front straps to be looser please

Superb instruction 👌👌👌

Nice skiing ⛷️

good video, but the vertical drop for this 16 lifts/ this course trough the resort cant be 12475m. When you add up your mentioned 16 lift rides, youll get about 8450m vertical. 8000m vertical without taking chapelets twice! 8000m vertical doable for much more skiers than 12500m.

Congrats!!!

don't expect snow in les2alpes. You'll ski only a glacier

This is an interesting presentation of the three pressure fundimentals. The only thing I did not understand is what movement is made in order to transfer pressure from the downhill ski to the uphill ski in the transition phase. Is the movement to shift weight when extending (effectively standing on) the uphill lski?

Good to know

Good pointers!

This is why I switched to snowboarding.

Dolomiti Superski in Italy, 1200 kilometers of interconnected slopes

1. Ischgl, Austria.

how tight should the top buckles be?

This has to be the best video I’ve seen. I’m now using this technique of pivoting followed by edging (at the moment I choose). Because of your video, I’m now skiing down black diamond runs with confidence. Thank you!

Good Core to control ur weight is also really important

Looks super boring.

Not a trick lol

Sooo goood🎉👏👌

i always start to panic and then dont turn because im too scared and then just bomb down the run 😅

Doesn't edge angle increase through retraction of the inside ski? U don't need to change the distance between ur skis, in fact it gets more difficult to get angulation if the skis are wide, and encourages more weight bearing on the inside ski which will make everything more difficult?

This season is the first time in 15 years that I’ve used shorter skis and I’m an intermediate skier, who uses all pistes. The ski hire representative was insisting that I had my usual size and that I’d be changing the skis later that day. The difference was so apparent in that I was turning and moving through the moguls much easier and generally felt more confident and in control on all the ski area. Try it and if it doesn’t suit, go back and change skis. Good luck 👍🏻

excellent tips

thx !

One thing not mentioned here, but helpful in deeper snow, is using the pole plant to time your slightly unweighting the skis to help slide them around.

Mincing… ok. Make sure that stays on the slopes

I'm trying this in 30 minutes! Is it harder with sharp edges?

I'm afraid i might snap my skis in half

Whats the point of poles while skiing anyway

Muy bien video. Explicación muy clarita. Muchas gracias

I like it. I go to Morzine on Saturday and I'm going to practice this. I can see it is a useful and versatile skill. Thanks Fred 😊

Very good!
