I love starting the season with SL skis to get back to basics before you go full tilt. You are such a ripper dude, keep it up.
Thank you 😊 have a great season 🤙
One day, after many lifetimes I will ski like this guy here.
You will do it, just believe in yourself
nothing like sending a full resort on downhill skis and using kids as gates
hahaha frrrr
Best feeling in skiing.
Awesome turns
I much prefer the short radius ski to get serious carve angles without having to go warp speeds.
It does make it easier at slower speeds that’s for sure
I have some Blizzard fis 30m and can't wait to break them out this season!
Nice sounds like fun
I learned to ski last month on 160cm atomic XC ski's with a radius of 14m, now I found atomic GS 10 ski's with a 17m radius at 174 cm. I'm 177cm. I consider myself a good intermediate compared to the others on the slope (snowboard background helped in picking things up fast) and focus mostly on good deep carvy turns and am not afraid of going fast. Gs ski's are normally longer than the skier. Do you think it might work out for someone in my position, or don't even bother?
Winner of both🙌
Thanks Hidenori san
@@paullorenz6389 Thanks for showing the pre-turn COM movement !
This is the answer to my previous question❗️
GS 🤩
Paul, question. Are you left handed or right handed. I've noticed in this and past videos that you come up a little more when you're transitioning from left ski to right ski than when you're going from right to left.
Love this comparisons :) All the GS skis are probably Masters or FIS/race skis are they? I once tried the head e gs rd pro master with R20+, but i hadnt the precision yet to ride them the right way 😅🥲🥲
Yes, they take a bit of getting used to and a lot more speed.
183/r25 GS is masters or a U16 race ski (not knowing the model).
Hey Paul what’s your best SL ski ? I m thinking about buying Stockli laser SL, Völkl racetiger SL or Fischer WC Pro SL. I am intermediate/advanced and I love agility changing directions and sometimes I do also medium turns, my height is 175cm thanks mannn
You finally made it to Rusutsu.
Yeh Rusutsu is great
You can carve on perfect corduroy without looking like you are taking a shit.
you're a ripper!
So which one's better??
For speed, the GS is always the winner!
How tall are you Paul?
Wondering if I should pick up some 165 or 171cm SL skis this season, I’m 186cm.
I’m 180cm. The 171cm skis will be more versatile that than the 165cm. I’d suggest the 171cm.
SL!!! 🙂😉
🤩🤩🤩🤩
may i know how tall you are?
Sure, I’m 180cm
SL na pár jízd ráno a GS na celé dny...SL - 165cm GS-180cm- slalomky náročné na techniku a fizičku a obřačky na pohodu a šetří sílu a nohy....
Stylish as no one!
literally the style of every ytber/instagramer doing this kind of content : arms open like a gorilla, broken forward chest and shriveling at the end of the turn.
@@gwenndysnoel8158 this is Ski tecnique coming basically from Japan ski schools. I came from an Italian ski school, they teach us to stay more closed and the turns are way more racing style (cutted and fast as possible). But if you see him skiing on a open slope, he's incredible fun and stylish, so i like it, looks cool.
스키는 서커스다.
나도 스키 20년 정도 탓는데 몸이 안따라온다.
Good video, but the "dirty secret" is that real GS skis need speed, or they're just planks, we're talking over 50 KPH, at least. If you don't want to constantly be at these speeds, these are not useful. Also, really understanding transition, tongue pressure, etc, is necessary. It probably helps to be 40 or younger, too, as there is NO WAY to get the angulation seen here without massive core strength and flexibility (and a functioning back).
Hi Rob, Yes you are correct, speed is the big difference. It is a shame that true GS skis have such a long radius as it makes them "unskiable" for most everyday skiers. Anyway thanks for your comment.
Bullshit. Im 52 and rip. A monkey can carve modern skis.
Great comment Rob, I agree 100% I wonder how many people have bought skis like this and not been told of the 'skier input' needed to make them work? I've seen too many intermediates on racing skis - because they looked good and made a good commission for the salesman! Buyer beware!
My first skis ever were GS skis, not FIS version, but still longer then myself and R17.5. It was really hard to start progressing with them, so i've bought pair of SL 165/R13 skis (again not a FIS ski, FIS SL ski is an absolutely different animal) that is in my opinion perfect type of ski to learn and progress in carving.
@@555vrx yeh an SL definitely helps learning and improving your edging skills. The movements are very similar just allows you to practise at slower speeds and is a little more forgiving if you move in too far. Good luck for the season ahead.
