- Hi everyone. In today's video we are showing you the show runs performed by the demo teams on Sunday, day 1! Enjoy!
ATTENTION, THERE HAS BEEN SOME MISTAKES WHEN NAMING THE COUNTRIES. HERE ARE THE CORRECTIONS:
- Hungary and Ireland has accidentally been presented backwards. The skiers in the green and white suits are Hungary @5:43 and the ones in the dark/black suits are Ireland @6:07.
- New Zealand @8:55 has been spelled falsely, should be New Zealand and not New Zeeland.
- Poland @10:00 has not been presented with their name Poland but left blank.
- Slovenia @11:38 has accidentally been presented as San Marino.
Our sincere apologies to all team members participating in this video.
Cheers, Tom & Chris
Austria pure class as always!
Always!
Switzerland was the only creative one.
U$A was the bigge$t- 27 instructor$ in this vid alone, wow that'$ a big bill for airfare$.

Lovely to see so many countries in Levi , Finland , really enjoyed the performances 😊
Thanks for tuning in and watching. Cheers, Tom
Thanks for the great demonstrations of skiing. They looked as if their stance was perfect for very enjoyable recreational skiing. Loved it.
Glad you enjoyed it
The skills concept ,edging,steering,pressureing,encompassing balance over the ski was the last real improvement in ski instruction. 1980s
Good skiing always existed. All of our skiing is based on fundamentals dating way back in time.
The skills concept is deeply flawed, to many redundancies with three or four skills that are not really skills. Even the 5 fundamentals is a sloppy mess of nonsense information. Good thing fun is frivolous unnecessary nonsense. The only relavent skiing publication was "The New Way to Ski" 1957 Willie Schiefler. PSIA shamefully tried in vain to dismiss this masterpiece of ski education. No one even knows about it. I sadly seem to be the only one with any recollection of the content.... There is only one skill... Gauged Pressure Manipulations.
@suz4359 "The New way to ski" outlined the progression we use today but PSIA replaced snowplow ( a good analogy for describing ski behavior) with the wedge which has little or no analogy to skiing... Learning happens in discreet levels of excitation (the principle of least action= the guiding priinciple of quantum mechanics). We once had levels A-F replaced by Levels 1-7 which are the same thing just unnecessarily replacing skill levels with numbers to confuse certification levels I- III which were once registered, associate, full certification. I am full Certified in 1983 by PNSIA (now PSIA-NW). Time has not treated PSIA well their ambitions are self-serving ignoring the reality of what ski instructors cope with daily to promote their own agenda which has no basis in physics. The physics of PSIA is so deeply flawed that even mentioning the possibility of defining skiing in accepted physics (Local frame of reference/ General Relativity, inertial frame of reference/ Special Relativity, rectilinear motion, counterbary, dynamic counterbary) terms is heresy. I got into a flame war with PSIA RM examiners and trolled them over a photo of Herman Maier on Epicski.com in a thread involving Henry Kravis- Yes that Henry Kravis (KSL Aspen- KKR)= Icon Pass. They truly dispised my thesis "The Esoteric properties of Ski Turn Initiation." For my PSIA-W examiner tryout. Harold Harb stole " the New Way to Ski" title for his book. I can't talk about Harold with out thinking about certain disturbing unprofessional facts. Harold promotes direct to parallel which is included in "The New Way to Ski) as an alternative progression for athletic students learning powder skiing. but Harold promotes it as a beginner progression which violate the principle of least action.
You are a Hero.
I was already hoping that someone would upload all the runs.
Thanks a lot.
No problem!
That was awesome and it’s amazing how each country has just a little different style of skiing
Yes, and wait until you see the technical demos. I have those still to be released. Cheers, Tom
Interski aka ski nerd heaven. Love it lol.
The best!
Congratulations triggerboy62...you have an answer for everyone..well done...and great skiing..I see your videos and even for me, being Italian, they speak an excellent language!
Awesome, thank you! Hope you are not sarcastic as I know its kind of rude always having the last word. But I want my viewers to understand that Im not just making a video without giving my audience a chance to ask questions. Also, as I reply the message drops out of the comment section hahaaa.... so there is a dual benefit :)
Always such NICE snow.
Yes, conditions were really good. A bit cold at times.... -10 and below brrrrrrr, Cheers, Tom
All countries teams look Amazing. Didn't know INTERSKI event before. Great event. really want to join 😀
Next time!
2:30 great video Tom, thanks and keep them coming.
More to come!
It's been the shape of the ski that's made the biggest difference
Yes, I think so too. And we have the snowboard to thank. They came up with it before we did and they gave the ski industry a boost like never before. Cheers, Tom
Hello Triggerboy62
I congratulate you on your great driving technique. This is real art.
I wish you always good skiing.
With alpine greetings
Raphael Wellig
Thank you very much! Cheers, Tom
Hello Triggerbody62
Many thanks for your response. I wish you all a lot of fun on the skis.

Most countries are back to the normal narrow stance. Huge improvement. Just look at Montenegro and Norway to see how a wide stance hinders good skiing.
This is indeed an interesting topic, stance width. Not many advocate a wide stance nowadays but seems like many skiers still use one. Narrow is way better. Cheers, Tom
Width of stance depends on the dynamics of the situation. Sync skiing at slower speeds narrow stance to look pretty, detune dynamics= more skidded turns are better for choreography. You must know and trust the entire teams skiing. Sadly over done routines with many odd variations. Stick to the cheese Grater to build synch skills and new routines.
Very nice :)! Have a blast! greetings from Germany
Thank you very much!
Thanks for sharing with us! Please do as many telemark videos as you can 😁
Thanks for watching and always nice to have Telemark enthusiasts on my channel. Did you see this: ruclips.net/video/GQtlnhjksAk/видео.html
By the way, I have lots of footage from the Telemark tech runs. Stay tuned. Cheers, Tom
Great video. Allways nice to see great skiing. On 11:40 in video is Slovenia i think, not San Marino. :D
You are right! Sorry for mixing them up. But 30 teams to keep up with, not an easy task for a skier :)
@@Triggerboy62 no worries :D
06:57 Korea did a class performance here!
Crazy to imagine how good they are, considering the deep angles on a relatively flat terrain (in the second clip)
Korea rocks. Yes, those guys also freeskiing could put their hip on the ground in almost any condition or pitch. I was totally blown away by their skill level.
Wearing a white snow suit is a failed choice.
@@Triggerboy62 I hope you’re kidding. There is nothing great about these snowboard turns and Korua most probably as scoliosis, curvature of the spine. Almost EVERY ONE of them rides with their back hand up. So bad. This is LOW LEVEL and they’re clueless as to why they need their back arm to initiate turns. They have no edge angle and aren’t even carving. Unbelievable.

I’m stunned at the low level of riding in general with snowboarding that people think is actually good.
@@Triggerboy62 Our bodies are not meant to bend like that. Korea’s physical body going to be SO MESSED UP in ten or twenty years if it isn’t already. There’s an epidemic of undiagnosed scoliosis, curved spines, among snowboarders who ride a certain “style”.
Fabulous. Beautiful turns. Where are any videos of Interski snowboarders? I can’t find any of the except one of a few men in blue coats riding with their back hands flying all over, bending at the waist, starting turns with head leans. Geez. The snowboarders are seriously underperforming in any videos I can find of them at interski. There seems to be almost no videos of them? Are they that bad?
I am not a snowboarder myself but you are right, not lots of snowboarders at Interski. I need to check through my archives.
Was that Ben Potts with the 540? Opps switch 3 even better!!!
Not sure who those were. Hopefully they will see the video and comment. Cheers, Tom
06:57 Thank you🥰
Thanks for watching.
Nice video 🍺Never knew there was so many countries skied 👏👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yes, many countries and great skiers and people in general. Tom
Dear Tom, thank you for your work. As you already know, two teams (Hungary and Ireland) have had their names changed. I know it was not easy to follow, who is who, but the demo teams ran in alphabetical order. The Hungarian Association of Ski Instructors and each member of the demo team put a lot of time, money, and effort into attending the Interski Congress in Levi. We are proud of the team and would like to see our name correctly displayed. Please solve the problem! If not otherwise possible, please write in the video's accompanying text "Attention, two country names have been accidentally spelled backward. The team in green and white is Hungary, and the team in black is Ireland. Thank you. Katalin Egri, President of the Hungarian Association
Dear Katalin Egri. I am truly sorry for making the mix-up with the names regarding Hungary and Ireland. Unfortunately that was not the only mistake made by me in this video and there is no way of correcting that now that the video is released other than pulling it off-line and posting a new video with all the corrections made. I might do that at some point but as for now I have as you recommended made the a note in the description box of the video. Thank you so much for being so observant and reaching out to me regarding such important issue. By the way, I really liked you skiing and became a huge fan of the Hungarian team. You also had the nicest outfits in my opinion. Cheers, Tom
@@Triggerboy62 Thank you very much for your action, Tom. I have been following your videos for years. I'm so glad you do so much for our profession. I wish you all the best for the future. Katalin
That Denmark team is shredding
Yes that was my highlight too!
Yes, Denmark was awesome. Cheers, Tom
PSIA ❤
Yes!
Austria 💯
Austria is always good! T
한국 팀 도 출전했네요 자랑스럽습니다 좋은영상 감사합니다 😂😂
Go Korea Go :)
@Triggerboy62 thank you really appreciate 🙏
wrong country, the green and white was Hungary not Ireland :)
9:01 should be New Zealand
Yes, in green and white clothes were our Hungarian team, the @Hungarian Interski Demoteam.
Hahahaa... thanks guys for correcting me. Got everything wrong it seams but not an easy task editing in the middle of the night with no clear info anywhere. Cheers, Tom
Also Slovenia not San Marino, but thanks for posting mate, appreciate it!
Whomever the camera person during the USA Demo was horrible! Zoomed in much too much. All excellent demonstrations. I would like to know what they call their basic philosophy and teaching methods.
I was the cameraman. I agree, the camerawork was not great. It was my first day filming Interski demo runs and I had no ide what was going to happen. And the US delegation was HUGE and there were skiers all over the slope. Who should I have been filming? Cross country skiers left, jumping right, people carving at the bottom, people short turning at the top....
I have all the demo runs taped. Also the technical runs where they explain their philosophy and teaching methods. All delegations. I need to start working on that now. Thanks for pointing that out.
Cheers, T
@@Triggerboy62 Sorry if I sounded harsh. The only comment I made was about the USA team demo. All the others looked great. Looking forward to the teaching methods ad philosophies. Thanks for responding!
Did yall discuss how to carve better?
What a racket (e_e)
Yes we did. I also have the technical demos on video. I will release those later. I also attended lessons where carving was taught. Cheers, T
Team of SLovenia was so embarassed of their performance they told the cameraman that they are also San Marino.
Are you joking?
kind of yeah. They did show lamest program of all of the countries tho.Elementary school level.@@Triggerboy62
Cool 😎
Thanks :)
美しい😍
Thanks :)
6:56 대한민국
Thanks for the time stamp. Cheers, Tom
No France and Italy?
No France and Italy, I was also surprised but San Marino is here with a big delegation including Italians.
Great work, Tom, getting this out so quickly. Random observations from someone with no right to any opinion. Demo outfits matter-why does NZ always dress up in baggy potato sacks like snowboarders from 15 years ago? Up-unweighting is alive and well. Snowboarding works in the air but otherwise looks kind of lame in this context. What has happened to Japan? I was counting on them to ski in some weird unique way but they just fit right in. Thanks again.
Thanks AJ - I have never seen so many super great skiers in one resort at once. Not even at the WC. Almost anyway ;)
I cannot comment on ski ware or how everyone skies as there are so many great skiers from all delegations and clothing styles vary a lot. I personally like the worn out jeans imitations from Croatia I think. But syncro skiing is a bit different to normal skiing as movements need to be conveyed far back in the pack. Lots of up and down movement to make clear visuals all over the team. Lets wait for the technical demos :)
Cheers, Tom
On-piste snowboarding looks kind of lame unless you get a lot of edge angle in it, kind of disappointed on the lack of high level snowboarders.
@@EFrost411 True. Great that Japan had a guy on a carving board.
@@EFrost411 The Snowboarders are terrible. There nothing high level about those turns and they have their back hand all over the place.
Wearing a white snow suit is a failed choice.
Yes, could not agree with you more. Cheers, Tom
No italy?
Italy is not part of ISIA. But San Marino was there and lots of Italians in their team I'm sure. Cheers, Tom
Put those boys and girls in a bump field with a foot of wet snow and you'd see a skier.
Bumps rule.
You got Ireland and Hungary mixed up just fyi!
I know but thanks for pointing it out. Cheers, T
Italia?
Italy was not taking part in this conference. Also not France. I think they have exited ISIA or something like that. But SanMarino was here. Lots of Italians in their group. Cheers, Tom
what is the song at 6:30 plz ?
Savior by Telecasted / RUclips Sound Library
Tom
Thanks for that - Hungary is wrong, it is ireland
Thanks, I had a hard time finding out who was who. Gonna redo this video later but now I have a lot of work with the new ones. Trying to get it right next time. And please correct my mistakes in the future :)

Dlaczego Polska została wycięta z tego występu pokazu ?
It was not cut or deleted. Poland had their show runs on day 5 as so many other countries. They could not appear on the same day. Here is the correct video: ruclips.net/video/zbD-Q8i_1bk/видео.html
@@Triggerboy62 Dziękuję za link z Polską.🎇
Japan cool
Japan VERY cool :)
South Korea improved their skiing. They used to be in a leg locked skiing with a swivel that is reminiscent of mogul skiers. Japan though is still exhibiting this style.
Overall the skiing was mediocre with most teams using a blocked pole plant with their rebound up unweighting. The arm motion was overly exaggerated. I realize that a pole plane used by racers is much different that a ski school pole plant as the ski school poleplant is used to time the turn and keep skiers in a solid foundation.
Most disturbing was the hip position of most demonstrators. They seemed to push against the snow and have the knee/leg straighten out, then chatter. This comes from an inclined and not an angulated position. That inclination is not a stacked position from a lower body position where edge angles are greater and the ski is loaded.
Overall...pretty skiing, but not high performance. I hope later sessions will show higher level skiing.
Well these aren't professional racers, they are leisure ski instructors, i think the way to "interski" is to have a perfect synchronization:)
I think you missed the point of what the show run is. Its a choreographed ski with your team to accounce your country, kinda like an opening ceronmany. The skiers are constantly needing to adjust their line to stay in time with the people infront / move into avaliable gaps when doing crossing maneuvers, so not typical skiing. Their demo runs will come later
What Vlad and Sam said. Some are professional ski instructors but most are just enthusiasts that spend their holiday training syncro skiing and paying for their trip around the world with own money. Hats off to all participants. Cheers, Tom
Austria over the Top, Bulgaria please stay home. Germany below the average, Japan wonderful team! UK please go for cricket
Hahahaaa.... thank you for honest opinion. Austria was indeed a super team as was Japan.
Absolutely pathetic! The way instructors and the industry has adopted a sled-runner stance on skis. At the expense of grace, but in order to make skiing easier for the masses. Obviously it's all amount mass market sales.
Thank you for your feedback. But what is a sled-runner stance on skis? Hunched over?
Boring. Do it in a bump field with a foot of wet snow
They could.... saw one of the austrians rip the zipperline on the bump field beneath the chair. But I didn't have time to pull out the camera. Darn. Missed a great shot. Cheers, T
Hermoso !!! Mí bella Argentina espectacular ,nuestra bandera siempre flameando arriba !!!
germany and austria by far the best skiers!
Thanks for watching and yes, the Austrian and the German stand out.
