    Being in my senior years and watching videos like this are extremely helpful. As we get older keeping our balance can be a concern. We may not go as fast as some but try and keep a good pace. Showing the pressure points on our feet as we ski were good to see. It would be nice to see further videos for seniors to help them enjoy the sport in their later years.

    You have to be 75% relaxed from knees up and 95% ferm from the knees down to the skis. The more weight you have the faster and more fun you'll have. It's 100% technical, 0% brute force. Basically your body should perform like a car air suspension. The rest is very well explained here. Practice, it will take a lot of practice to master it.

    Excellent! I always use the analogy that our ski bodies are in a tune, like a shock absorber in a vehicle, and we move our ankles, knees, hips inside that tube to remain balanced over our skis . This video is great visual of that.

  • @stranger360th

    Thanks that is a helpful interpretation on this oven heard tip. My 70 years old south Tirol coach told me not to focus on bending the knees but being in balance all the time. „All the time“ is the really tricky part if you are an occasional skier. Because the terrain is ever changing requiring the skier to adapt the body posture (and hence the pressure on the feet) all the time.

  • @Scr3amapillar

    Only in the right position you see an up and down motion, and that's what you need to make turns.
    Very good video.
    A little tipp: if you set your poles don't move your hands. He has a lot of movement, espacially with his left hand. The problem is, that the more motion you have in your upper body, the more balance you lose. The work is in your ankles, knees and hip. The rest above the hip is steady as a rock. Under tension. Just a little movement with your wrist in your hand to set the pole in front of you. That's it.
    But setting the poles is a very individual thing. Everybody is unique. So don't be too harsh to yourself if you know you have little movement with your hands. 😊
    Y'all have a great and safe winter. 🤙

    Seems I hear a lot of instructors telling their guests to press their shins against the tongues of their boots. I’ve been wondered if I could teach ankle flexion without talking about it in the context of stance, but I think Tom shows with these mistakes the fallacy of that kind of thinking. I’ll add Tom’s MA to my toolbox. Thank you.

  • @mateuszkopaczyk5140

  • @SuperFiberoptic
    @SuperFiberoptic 3 года назад +3

    The real reason his skis wash out in the slumping back position (2:20-2:40 min) aside from upper body to far back (balance) is that he is rotating the upper body into the turns. This rotates hip outward and flattens the edge angles. Upper and lower body separation is needed, the tighter the turns the more the upper body stays facing down the fall line.
    Next in the bent over position (2:42-3:08) with hips sitting over the heels yes weight is back. The real issue whether in a tall, mid or low (think World Cup SL racing or mogul competition) stance, is not just balance, but he actual states it at (3:18), "I got good ankle flexion". Without this ankle flexion you are not really connected and in control of the boots. Many people mistake cranking up their buckles overly tight as being connected. Usually you just get pins and needles and cold feet.
    In the balanced position (3:10-3:50), as opposed to the first 2 examples which are quite static, he is using more dynamic turning (increasing edge angle and pressure throughout each turn) picks up at (3:36). He also maintains upper body facing down the fall line.

    • @andrewcharlton4053
      @andrewcharlton4053 3 года назад

      Especially on the bent over position, it's actually key to achieving the quick rotations and turns needed in slalom racing. It only works if the rest of the technique is correct however. Just sitting back is still bad and even in that aggressive low racing position, it's not something you can sustain for a long time, it's designed to be used on a SL course and that's it.

  • @davidweaver8506
    @davidweaver8506 3 года назад +16

    This is very helpful. I've heard advice to work on my balance, but I always interpreted it as a left-right balance. Seeing the shins and torso parallel to each other really was the Ah-Ha moment.
    Storms are on their way. I look forward to trying it out.

    Very nicely presented in a short video. I would suggest that you could have also pointed out (or emphasized more) the amount of edge in contact with the snow in the different positions...when in a centered/balanced position you have the full edge in contact and therefore more control. The other two positions you have the front or tail of the ski in contact...less edge contact means less control. And kudos to the camera man!

      I'm no professional but honestly it's only helpful to do the wrong thing when someone experienced or CARV can correct you so you can feel why not to do. If you do one of the wrong knee flexions it could become a habit without you meaning it to. I'd say focus on the balanced position and learning what feels best for you, after all, everyone skis differently!😁

    Tom this video is great. I’m a big RUclipsr This is top’s for all that I’ve seen, trust me I’ve seen hundreds. I’m 6”1 my problem is I’m too stiff legged main reason I can’t do moguls, which I would love to learn. The problem being tall your mind tells you your bending the knees in all reality your not. What you point out is there’s more to it than just bend your knees. Sure wish I had you as an instructor. I would enjoy skiing much more

    Watch elite skiers, in GS especially. They actually use a straighter, less bent outside/downhill leg, and a much more bent inside knee. Think about doing a squat. The hardest part of a squat is when your knee is bent the most. There is no way even the strongest GS skier can manage those massive multi G loads with a DH knee highly bent. They will buckle and shift back, losing control of the ski at the end of the turn. So they put themselves in a position such that the lower leg is only slightly bent, like the top of the squat motion where you are very strong. Even an untrained person can squat big weight if they only bend their knees slightly. Shortening the inside leg by bending more, while holding your skis parallel and driving your knee UP...not forward, will naturally result in a more angulated overall position with higher edge angles AND better geometric advantage with he less bent lower leg to handle those massive loads. Look at their edge angles...way over 50,60 degrees. The only way you can do this is with a shortened inside leg, and a straighter downhill leg.

    Not much upper lower separation in first few examples. With more upper/lower separation will increase edge angle.

      This intention of this video was more so to show skiers the different ways you can bend the knees while skiing, and not to focus on annulation.
      We hope it was helpful ⛷

    Each season is tend to front lean for a bit, than back lean to recalibrate my balanced position.
    Sometimes, and depending 9n the circumstances, I transfers from balanced position to front or back lean.
    I like to mix it up while traversing from parallel to carving.
    Looking forward to the slopes.

    I've heard that you should do the opposite if you want to carve like the pros. Around 3:40 you bend your knees while carving and extend them in the transition. Why not the other way around like the pros do?

    snow in Solden looks better in October than it does in Italy, France, and switzerland in January...
    Seems like I've been skiing every weekend in the wrong countries, it's pure ice here ^^^.
