Introduction to Cross Country Skiing with BASI
my dear coach Renelle!
Is it still achievable to find a job in the UK as a snowboard instructor in Indoor slopes?
Thank you Renelle :)
Where is a video of you riding Ken. I’m want to see your level in action. The us National team has almost no videos of them actually riding. They still don’t understand upper body or rotation and their arms are still waving all over the place. The low level of carving is embarrassing.
Thanks for your videoreport/feedback! The referred resource: czcams.com/play/PL3CVgsV6i4tlLwUFDfRuCvpY2F4rgB6sz.html
Excellent, thanks
I want everyone to think about this. The year is 2023. Shaped skis have been around for 20 years. Shaped skis require that you only balance on one ski at a time while you face and lean down the hill and they will make the turns for you. From beginner parallel to racing turns. What did you see these instructors do from the very beginning? They pushed and shoved and twisted the ski Out from Under Them to Force them to change direction. That is what you spend $1,000 a day to be taught. What you saw here will ruin your skiing for your lifetime. What you saw from 0:20 to 0:34 are two completely different things. The first has absolutely nothing to do with the second. The first will prevent you from doing the second. The first doesn't prepare your mind to do the second. No, the first is not a step that needs to be taken to get to the second, it is completely and totally unnecessary and will destroy skiing for you. 0:34 What she said is 95% incorrect and useless. Words or labels don't teach, definitions do. Showing what skiing looks and feels like doesn't teach, it doesn't create an understanding, showing and telling you what you need to do to make skiing look and feel like that, does. That red and blue "Gimmick," nope. People are stronger on one side because like their hands, they favor one leg over the other. I'm right-handed but I like making turns on my left foot over my right foot. It's because my right side is stronger than my left from construction work so my waste on the left side isn't as developed so my upper body angle to my legs is easier to achieve. Just because someone in "Authority" says something is so, doesn't mean it is. You, have to think for yourself!
I've been looking into this, and I'm pretty sure you're all British 🤷🏻♂️
Great job with these updates. Thank you.
Interesting...
They debuted this gear in Pomporovo in 2019. Nice to see the corresponding progressions being worked out and hear that there is some adoption in the field.
my dear coach Renelle!
This video needs a whole lot more views (you'll get them tho). Thank you very much for the guide!!
Very helpful thanks
Great video. I have a 20 year old Burton Clash that's had about a months use and never a service. It's sat in the loft for about 15 years. Should I just bin it or do you think it might be ok? 😂
Send it!
@@jjlovesjam I got it serviced to be told it's twisted. I then took it to France and owned the piste. Fucking hero. It's going in the bin now. 🤣
@@abr00ky haha ye sick
I didn't really own the piste as I'm shit innit. @@jjlovesjam 🤫🤣
#JoeHarkness - thanks for the answers below. Do you teach basic freestyle stuff for skiers and if so, where are you based? In the meantime, am I right to presume that the tricks are easier to perform on a twin tip freestyle ski as opposed to a GS ski?
请问 basi 的官网是?
Good 👍
Hi Shug, Thanks for the video. I dropped onto CZcams to find out a bit more about edge tuning. The reason I searched was I decided to use my wife's skis today, the have not been used for a few years and the last time she used them, she was not a happy bunny and has not skied on them since and has now given up skiing altogether. So I thought I'd take them to Hemel Snow Centre and try them out. These are adult skis just 123cm long .. Atomic ETL 123. They are so easy to ski on, but I was a bit suspicious that they had been made too sharp all along the edge which made them hard to swivel flat. They were great fun to carve with though. They were last tuned in Italy .. I think I'll take them along to our local ski shop .. the ski exchange near Cambridge.
Interesting. I haven't skied for about 30 years! But used to a lot and tried my hand at teaching a bit too. My last skis were 210s. (I'm 174) Loved them. So stable. How things have changed. 🙂 These 'modern' skis look like the 'compacts' that I learned on back in the early 70s. I notice the skiing style is quite different too. Feet are quite far apart.
I'm 13 and I can do all of this but my local ski resort sed I can become an instructor because I'm to Yung
U wanna do more than that
What a great flex and sentence. Are you sure you have a perfect form? And by the way, lvl 1 is really easy
You need to finish school first. You can’t skip your education and just snowboard. Please don’t skip spelling class no offense. You can be an instructor later. You can only finish high school once hopefully.
@@snowboardguru6794 lol
Thanks for making this public and definitely interested in a part 2
thanks for making this public
Brilliant.
7:11 Mentions intro sessions but there doesn't seem to be an easy filter for them on the Find A Course? Not gone up yet or would that need to be arranged elsewhere?
They're all here Oliver, we'll be working on making them easier to find soon: www.basi.org.uk/intro
That's a cool shirt I want one
Thanks for the update.
Brilliant Update 👏👏👏👏
Does BASI still exist, or do we have to marry Romanian gypsies to get a work permit?
Great update, thanks!
Great new format for BASI news and really well presented - good stuff!
Brill-Love it .
Great update. Much appreciated
Hey, I am the first one to make a comment? I thought it was pretty good advice and well explained. Fanks buddy!
Love this!
Skis for lv3 & 4 ?
Where can you take the courses in the uk?
Hi Mamie, We run courses at the snow domes and dry slopes in the UK during the summer. In the winter we, run a few courses at some of the Scottish resorts but the majority of winter courses are abroad. You can see all our level 1 dates and venues here: www.basi.org.uk/BASI/Landing/UKCClaunchnonmeb.aspx
Can you do this at snowfactor braehead or do you have to go to the alps?
Hey Jason, You can do the level 1 course at Braehead over the summer. We normally release the UK course calendar in January, just keep an eye on our website for course dates.
Excellent video Joe. I have 2 questions please: 1) Is an ollie the same as a dolphin? 2) Often when I jump my big toe smashes into the front of my boot and the pain is a lot. How to avoid this and is this just an inevitable part of learning jumps?
Thanks for the questions. An ollie is similar to the movement you perform during a dolphin turn, however, it's slightly more exaggerated. When performing an ollie, there's more weight on the back of the ski, you actually load and bend the tails of the ski during the takeoff, with a dolphin turn although the back of the ski is the last part of the ski to leave the ground it's generally less weighted. Toe bang is normally caused by either ill-fitting boots (the foot not being properly held in place) or landing back seat (having your weight too far back when landing). Check the buckle on the lower part of your shin isn't too loose and have a think about where your weight is when landing. Spend some time really practicing landing dead center on smaller jumps then work it up and you should find it improves.
I'm looking to book on the BASI course in july, I have Rossi E84 HD 170cm. Ive lost about 2 stone in weight since i bought them and they are all mountains. Should I hire skis for the course or stick to what i know?
Hi Lee, You're better to stick with the equipment you're familiar with for the BASI course, it can be hard to adapt quickly to new equipment. The Rossi ski's you have would be suitable for BASI courses. Just make sure you adjust the DIN's on your bindings to ensure they are safe after the weight loss!
@@OfficialBASI already done! Cheers. For the info!
Thanks for a nice clip. Just a wee correction. It's DIRRT Duration, Intensity, Range, Rate and Timing. Cheers,
Is it worth getting a higher level ski to cover all levels up to 3 and 4 rather than buying a new set after 1 and 2 are quickly completed? Do you have recommendations for those higher levels?
If you're skiing at a level 3 or 4 standard already, then you might prefer to go for a higher performance ski for the level 1 and 2 courses. However, using a stiffer, higher performance ski might make some of the tasks you're required to complete on BASI courses more difficult. We're working on producing a video recommending skis for level 3 and 4 courses.
you ski like a pole!
Very informative video. Could you make any recommendations of skis for those wanting to train for a BASI 3 or 4 technical course? As well as if said ski models are best suited to those of smaller or bigger bodyweights and heights?
Thanks for the comment! We're planning on working on a recommendation video for level 3 and 4 courses at the next ski test. With regards to bodyweight and height, Ben mentions that some of the skis here would be more suitable to lighter and heavier skiers so it's certainly something we can continue to mention in future videos.
I'm very glad to see Rupert T (my teacher) on the team!
It says "to be continued" so where is the continuation?
Greg - yes the title of the course is a BASI Alpine Level 2 Performance Course...objective to imporve personal permoance in preparation for Level 2 Assessment.
What course were these guys on?? Sounds like they were on a pre level 2 training course??
