Only got courdoroy like this for about 10 mins of 1 run this year.... 😮😢 Love corduroy... you can do things like this. Loose granular with ice underneath and nope... washout.
He is very good but I think the only error he did is that when skiing the lower foot ( the one facing towards the end of the slope ) has to be further than the upper one since ti means you are putting weight on the right part
@@swifttone I would even argue that in most skiing areas (at least in my country) you have great conditions until about midday, which is when things start to get worse on some slopes. Mostly only on slopes that are needed to get from point A to B though
@@tainicon4639 😂😂😂😂 20m-my ass. He is turning way shorter than the 12 m radius. The radius of his turns is no longer than 5 meters. 6 if I am generous. This is ULTRA tight carving.
I’m scanning yt on my daily commute to figure this out. Best video I’ve seen was a dude who said to ski without poles. And do one turn at the time. Doing a J-turn. Just go down a bit then turn super carv to the other side of the slope. Like a J. Then when skiing without poles you much more naturally can glide your hand in the snow. He also said the you need to twist your hip facing somewhat down the slope to keep straight outer leg. When in the slope practice falling down on you hip and catch yourself with the hand. To get a natural fell for how to fall. It’s in essence a very natural and smooth movement. Wait for the ski in the first third of the turn. Let the ski turn. If you rush it. You will start to skid. Look for clean train tracks in the snow. If you do short turns. Look for deeper train tracks at the very mid of the turn. Release the chin pressure mid turn to get an even distribution of the weight over the ski. Be the smallest between turns. Look in this video. He is really low between turns. And extends and straighten legs mid turn. Usually people stand up between turns and bend mid turn. Watch you for a-frames between you knees. You have to have your ski boots parallel to have the same edge angle when turning. You get higher edge angles by raising you inner knee. Not pushing the knee down. Drive the inner knee inwards. Like push it up wards slightly. Get som slalom skis with 12 meter radius. And the stiffest boots you can. It made a bigger difference than I thought. Practice in predictable slopes. Early morning. Box you way into the turn. Like hitting someone with the downward hand. Hands low and wide but where you can see them. Don’t pole plant. Some do. I do. But I will try to stop that. Or just tap the snow lightly. Go fast. And steep. 90% pressure on outside ski. Some say 100% some say 80% you get the idea. Longer turns you can turn you whole body and follow around the turn. Shorter turns let the torso face more down. And let the legs go under you. Strong core. Helmet! 😊 Practice the body position sitting in a low sofa. Extending legs side to side. Film yourself. Relax. And be strong. Natural. Always remain in proper stance. Chins and torso in parallel angles. Strength training. Flexibility training. Skis shoulder width apart. Never lean back. No matter how steep it gets. Lean out more than 90 degrees of the slope. Always attack. If the slope scares you. You have to scare it back. Sorry for writing so long. 😊
Very simple. Imagine you ate standing between two stools. You want to rest your right cheek on the edge of the right stool. Take your weight off your right foot, lift your right cheek, and slide it over to the right stool. Then do the same to the left. By lifting your cheek, you are forcing your upper body to stay vertical. The farther you slide your cheek over, the steeper the leg angle.
Someone help whenever I turn right when I carv my downhill ski point downhill and the inside ski stays in the right spot leaving me to gain more speed goi g down the hill
Sorry I’m trying to understand this technique. What is he doing with his upper body to achieve such high angles in his skis? I would like to know and put in the hours/practice to achieve this someday.
Love the fact that skiers that are so technically sound, can achieve these angles on slopes that aren’t steep and also without going at high speeds. I witnessed a great skier last season on a green run achieve angles like this going at a leisurely pace. Very impressive,
