Nice vids my man 👌🏼very informative and can really help people improve!! (Just an observation from a fellow ski nerd, from watching a good number of your videos, I think you come off your left turns a tad early, really let it flow like your right turns!)
I was a decently advanced skier when I hung them up 20 years ago. After finding your videos last year I went and rented some equipment and decided to give it another go while bringing my young son along. After a slight (re)learning curve I fell in love with it all over again, although it was a little different as this was my first time ever on a set of shaped skis. I bought a used pair of skis and watched all I could from you and others on how to carve. By no means was I what I would consider good by the time everything got shut down but I'm excited to hit the slopes in 2 weeks to continue my practice. Thank you for the videos and for renewing my love of the slopes and giving my and my boy something to bond and look forward to.
Your Chanel is so underrated. It really is one of the best Chanel’s on the platform. Your videography is beautiful and your tips are great, keep it up 😁
The timing of your videos is fantastic for those of us in the southern hemisphere. I literally use them to help visualise skiing during the off season, as well as for some mountain porn, all of which gets me pumped for the upcoming winter down here in AU. Keep them coming!
Really nice tutorial! I'd add one drill with a lot of variants: ski horribly wrong on an easy slope trying to do short turns; weight all the way forward, weight all the way back, standing all the way up and sitting down with butt touching back bindings. Same forwards, backwards, with one ski for pro's backwards and forwards. Get a feeling how all these change the way skis turn. Then try to find the most comfortable position to stand on the ski and do the same short turns. Once found, it's just gold! ps. I tought a 6 year old to ski today, the smiles were priceless after the kid did full runs on kiddie slope from the top pps. Jens, upper body 2 degrees up and butt 2 degrees down, will get your legs burning but gets you through bumps so much easier ;)
I am so pumped for the skiseason. I am buying brand new faction prodigy 2.0 and will be skiing in åre as well as badgarstein. These tips will be really helpfull and come in handy. Really great video jens! Tack för det🙏🏽
Thanks Jens. I think the compression turns are going to help my forest skiing. I would love it if you featured some women free skiers, like Kelly Sildaru, Sarah Hoefflin, Mathilde Gremaud, Giulia Tanno, Caroline Claire, Margaux Hackett, Elizabeth Gerritzen. I can't find anything much on RUclips for lady shredders. It'd really help if they would do a review of skis on your channel. I'm planning to buy my first freeride skis. I'm looking for something like the Bent Chetlers, but for someone much lighter and shorter than the person they are made for. Many thanks!
Hi, I was wondering how do you do to have such a good video result skiing facing the camera? Does your cameraman ski backward? Thanks for your videos, I'll probably land my first 360 thanks to you this year (after watching my attempts, I saw I block my rotation with my arm) Go on and enjoy the season!
Jens, your concise comparison of crossover versus crossunder should help me with doing movement analysis. Question for you. When you are skiing, do you notice less imbalance in transition making crossunders? Thanks.
Damn! Where are you at that has all that POW?!! Are you still skiing the Bent Chetler 100's? Also, an expert (Retired Army Spec Ops) skier was telling me to go with narrower skis in the 72-85cm range to actually control the skis. He said wider skis in the 100cm range are controlling the skier more than the skier controlling the skis. Your opinion? Also as far as float goes he says why would you want to float in powder? Better to sink down into pow on narrower skis and enjoy it! Says if you're floating you might as well ski on grooms! Again your thoughts? Cool thanks man!
Hey hey, Yes I ski them for park and all mountain skiing. Narrow skis feel kind of good to ski in the powder for short turns. But for larger swooping modern big mountain turns I like to float on top with a minimum of 107mm under foot but most of the time 120. 120 is a bit overkill but I like it anyway. Jens
Hi there. Quick question. We take our 3.5 year old son skiing with us. This is his first season. He’s loving it! My question is yay or nay on edgie wedgie?
Hey William, I started with Freestyle from day one on skis. Thus my technique is still not that great but thanks to first trying to learn toturn a ski properly in my 20s I still remember the struggle. Plus I am still trying to do slightly better turns every year :)
@@StompItTutorials I started as a racer and this Christmas hopefully will finally get my first pair of twin tip skis. I started racing around 2 years ago but I have been skiing sense I was about 2 years old. I live in the US and there are not that many big mountains near me. LAAX looks so fun and I wish I could go there. Thanks
Can't get past the first drill. You are using your hips with the pivot slip. Poor alignment. You are not in a proper 'comma' position, but mis aligned due to your hip rotation vs. pivoting. Weak demo.

"Oh no, they sabotaged my line, Damnit"
I'm dying 🤣
I'm an off piste advanced skiier and here I am still learning some new things. Thanks for this, ya legend!
Glad to help!
For those of us who dont do an entire season on the mountain, can you do a video on for drills for your first day back after 12 months?

So funny, this is exactly my same situation.
This is the best skiing channel on yt hands down!! Jens is my boy!!

My goal this winter is to ski my first black diamond :) my mountain opens this Friday and I'm so excited to practice these drills

pretty good. 0:02 i was actually looking to conquer an entire empire (state). Can you please post a video on like 10 or 11 drills for that?
I recently tore my cruciate ligament and every time I watch your videos I want to go ski. I am so stoked when I can go and ski again.
Sorry to hear that. Train train train🤙
Great videos man, just getting better and better! Thanks!

Stomp it has the best tutorials!
This is great!
Thank you :)
Thanks for yet another great video. Greetings from Denmark
Our pleasure!
omg i just watched your first one 5 seconds ago! wow
Can’t wait for my resort to open here in MT!!
Great!! Thanks!

Hey There, Some times he skis switch but most of the time he skis forwards and films backwards.
Can you do a tutorial on how to do nose grabs and double nose grabs?
Great video!! Looking forward to the next one!!
Great 👍🏾 envy 🤪
Thanks)

Haha, the way you do your compression turns is so familiar 😂 I love practicing them though!
Haha familiar as in how awkward and tricky it is to do with out a bump to do it over? :P
@@StompItTutorials yup 😅
@@StompItTutorials love the videos btw!
I am a level 2 Canadian standard skinstruture. How advanced are your ski Technique Camp? and by the way love your videos
I think not quite advanced enough for you.
Video Idea: Do you need twin tip skis to ski park?
Please I don’t have freestyle skis but I want to learn park
Does anyone know, how -5,5 behind true center effects to the movement of the ski in the park?
Did you start as a racer or a free stylist

@@StompItTutorials I am thinking of getting the Head Caddy Skis 2020. They are not that expensive and the look really good.
Twin at 1:51
compression turns have saved me from sending it 25 feet in the air before lol
YES EARLY
oh no they sabatoged my line jens-2020
Instructions unclear, I conquered the entire country by accident. 'Oopla.
Hi
Hi Todd!
@@StompItTutorials omg you said hi Best day ever
first
Sorry I beat you to it ;)
When giving advice to the viewers, on background you see typical nonskilled skiers pushing snow into piles...
Can't get past the first drill. You are using your hips with the pivot slip. Poor alignment. You are not in a proper 'comma' position, but mis aligned due to your hip rotation vs. pivoting. Weak demo.
This is honestly hilarious.this guy is not very good at doing the drills he is trying to show.
