I’ve only skied one day ever at Mad River Glen ~ 20 years ago. Wind scorn with no fresh cover for 2 weeks prior… it was a brute force lesson in bumps and ice that I still cherish today.
Skied bumps at whiteface tuesday! Thanks for the tips!
Stokkeeee!!!
PSIA alpine is all about the perfect turn carve, which generates most excellent accelerations and g-forces… but PSIA doesn’t give any other kind of turn a fair deal _(nor does Nordic doesn’t get a fair deal)_ … accelerating through a mogul field is best left to the pros, for everyone else _(or maybe just me)_ , pivot is the key.
Are you talking about the O’Bannon/Clelland book?
That's the one!
I get crossed up in bumps. My front ski hits the bump first which causes it to turn more and my back ski wants to run up and cross over. How do I control both skis and keep them parallel when the terrain wants to turn them in different directions?
That's a pretty common issue, which I can verify happened to me when I was first learning how to ski bumps on tele. What helped me the most was staying light on my lead leg and riding more heavily on my rear leg while sliding down the backside of moguls. I also found that timing pivots and speed of the lead change makes a huge difference. My favorite way to practice that is repetition, which in my case meant a lot of crossed tips and face plants. The Absolute Telemark channel has a bunch of good videos worth checking out, including this one (ruclips.net/video/RkciO1-sJr4/видео.html) where he talks about having a slightly straighter back than you might otherwise when not in bumps as well as a demonstration of what quick pivots should look like. I'll see if I can get Ben to weigh in too for a different perspective.
@@NewSchoolTelemark it would be great if someone could say, “put your back foot here” and show me where to let my back foot run into the bump.
@@NewSchoolTelemark Martin (absolute tele) is awesome, but I’ve also gotten a lot from watching you guys, and listening to the occasional tips you dispense! Cheers and thanks!
@@stvbrsn appreciate the kind words!
@@thomasloper1205 that's a great idea. I'll see if I can pull something like that together. I would not recommend holding your breath during the wait though!
