- This instructional video focuses on how to take your carving to the next level. With the 2024 winter season in full swing, why not get on snow with some intention! If you are trying to achieve those next levels of ski performance on piste and taking your carving to new heights then this video will help you ski faster with more consistency and confidence. Enjoy :-)
Also for all of my online learning lovers out there... something that I am really excited about is my upcoming Projected Productions video with Reilly McGlashan - we will discuss all things variable off piste skiing (conditions typically found in Japan, North America, and Europe). So stay tuned for that to be released. Projected is the best place to view in depth online skiing educational material.

7:29 throughout my entire 15 years of ski experience i havent seen such exercise!!! this is amazing!!!
It's a fun one for sure. I learnt it from Richi Berger when I did some training with him several years ago.
Agree 👍
Beautiful skiing. You are a very elegant skier.
Best video about carving.
Just look it many times as you can with full your attention and than go to the slop to practice it.
Thank you so much for this video Joshua- you are a great sport ski athlete and a coach.
This information and performance is brilliant!
Use it.
That stop exercise is soo cleaver ! Nver seen that before in other videos , going to practice that ! Thanks
Nicely done. Great initiatives to work on, particularly the hockey stop.
Awesome video Josh. Definitely going to incorporate it into my training and teaching!
Sweet video Josh 🔥 thanks for sharing!
wow thank you, I'm doing both of these drills on my next trip, along with the hand drag drill
thank you very much for your ski lesson!
I'm korea skier!
Great skiing , fun to watch😀
Excellently explained! thx a million
Cool drills I will try them soon!
Wow❤❤❤❤ gold and love it… pls keep coming
So, so good!! Thank you.
Awesome video! Big struggle for me is to increase edge angle, thus enabling tighter carved turns. Those tigher carved turns are a dream of mine! Really interesting video
Nice exercises for this is outtrigger turn and another one - dragging both boles on the snow pretty wide (staying low the whole time) starting medium carved turns, increasing speed and turn radius
Great tutorial! Thanks ... 😀👍
So helpful!
"... feel your inside heel slide up towards your outside knee ..." What an awesome explanation! That is exactly how I feel when doing it right!
I’ve felt this exactly once, literally on one turn. It felt utterly amazing.
I’ve been searching for it ever since.
Is this a symptom for you (of good form), or can you use it to help maintain good technique?
amazing video
The exercise is nice!
Sweet video

Thankyouverymuch.
Thats a nice run on the NZ Alps! I hope they put a new lift in soon. Its too slow. Gret video footage impressed with the J-sit down! 😊
Great advice. What ski length is best suited for a 12-15m carve?. I use a 184cm 93 under foot.
Great video, nice progression sequence, is there anything more fun than carving those railway tracks? ( I guess there is but this is a skiing video) lol
7:26 nice drill ❤
I’ll try later today
Very nice @JoshuaDuncanSmith. Which skis (model, length, radius) are you using? Do you use extra plate on the skis?
I am using the Fischer RC4 CT in a 175 in this video. I have the bindings mounted flat to the M-plate and 5mm lifters on my boots.
Amazing video and will be trying this out. How come nobody ever talks about ending on the back seat at the send of a turn? I let my bum fall, legs out to the side, I get pretty low and I can feel edges catch and the rail tracks pull me by centrifugal force but by the time I want to get up(transition), I am in the back seat and need lots of thigh muscle help to pull myself up again. What am I doing wrong?
There should be no back seat ending, the outside leg is extended, hips forward, firm,only the inside leg is flexed. And there is no going up.
It sounds like you might be counter-steering, i.e. turning your upper body outwards against the direction of your skis.
You can tell this if you swing your hands side-to-side and your outside hand strikes your bum or even ends up behind you.
A heavily countered carve is what is called “park and ride”: you can achieve a carved turn - even sit down while doing it - but the edge angles are limited and there’s a huge effort involved in untwisting and getting out of it for the next turn.
Good stuff as always. I like that inside hockey stop drill. I'm a believer in drills that isolate and exaggerate a particular feeling that becomes more natural in everyday skiing. The white pass turns are super difficult for me. My brain just won't let me rely on the little toe edge to turn. Is there a progression movement that would help me get there?
You could give rail road/edge rolls a go on one leg so you have to commit to rolling the ski onto the outside edge and balancing on it for at least a little bit.
I know one. Try a one footed traverse. Start with down hill/big toe edge traverse, once that becomes easy progress to uphill/little toe traverse. You'll find that more challenging. Once you can traverse comfortably on the little toe edge you can roll onto the big toe edge of that same foot. Super gentle slope though, like nursery slope. Hope that helps.
@@johndawson8510 I'd maybe also add one legged run on flat terrain at low speed (no sonsequence when falling, easy to catch the fall via poles).
@@johndawson8510 I like the expression "nursery slope". Perhaps we should reclassify our "black, blue.." designation to something inspired by humen ontogenesis like from fetal slopes to toddler slopes, pubertal slopes... midlife crisis slopes...😀
Try Mikaela’s “Get Over It” drill that practices lifting the outside ski even while the inside ski is still on its little toe edge.
And don’t forget to apply angulation when balanced over your outside edges.
Finally, make sure you have at least a little touch between your shins and the tongue of your boot. This helps give me more confidence I can change my edges.
I joined Projected Productions a week or so ago for 12 months to start. Excellent videos and instruction, which I am adding to my skiing, I'm excited to hear you will be part of it. My carving is already quite good, but I struggle with pulling my inside leg back to allow more edge angle. What I am referring to is tip lead which is blocking my inclination. Any tips to achieve this or can you cover some of that in your videos on PP?
Thank you.
I think Paul Lorenz or JF have a video on PP focusing on foot position.
My tip would be to ski around with flexion and tension on the inside ankle especially when you start the turn.
@@JoshuaDuncanSmith I will work on that this week when I get back on snow Tuesday. I put a crazy amount of miles on snow weekly usually 100 miles downhill each week. People tell me they love my carved turns, but something seems to be missing maybe I over think it.
@@JoshuaDuncanSmith I did watch Jeff's presentation on not getting too much tip lead.
Thanks! What stiffness of boots are better for carving? Mine are rated at 100. Seems very flexible. Would a 120 or 130 perform better?
It depends on your body size and ski level...I would say if you find your current boots too flexible then you should try a 120 or stiffer. Personally I use a 170 cuff and 150 shell.
i have searched this for a long time

Man, keep that torso pointed down the fall line.
Be careful not to feed the troll JB91710.
LOL...that guy has issues!
6:48 extremely difficult
As with all new skills or adaptations -- consider it (them) to be not difficult, just different. The more the 'learner' tries it (them) the more familiar they will feel and the more successful they will become (at that skill / adaptation)
Not really when you learn to use your pelvic bone in a complimentary manner. Look at this young ski racer (Bridget Currier) on GS skis.
czcams.com/video/ffTTkneQWTE/video.html
This shows development of full edge control using hip / pelvic bone tilt. Watch what Bridget does very carefully. When she does a normal turn (turning on the outside leg), she "hip levels". This means she raises the pelvic bone by what feels like "hiking" the inside hip. This has a significant biomechanical effect all the way down the to the foot, and makes it much easier to tip the ski and more importantly, provides a corrective mechanism for when you are in a strong position. At 45 Deg+ edge angles on one ski...her hips remain almost level to the snow. This require a strong raise of tilt of the pelvic bone.
But what about when turning the other way, and the one ski is now inside, and you are on the uphill edge? She does the opposite. She needs to hike her inside hip..but she cant...because she has one ski on! So what does she do? She achieves the same by DROPPING the outside hip. See how she extends her leg on the off edge turn? She is demonstrating total control of the tipping and edging mechanism, which requires the hip tip as much as the skis.
Control of pelvic bone tilt is mandatory for high level skiing. Mikaela knows this.... It is one of her secrets.... czcams.com/video/DG_Dg7_NIt0/video.html

Do NOT look at his skis. Only watch his face and chest. When his skis are making a turn, watch where is face and chest are going. They are already heading in the opposite direction to create a snap leg angle change so the skis can quickly change edges and make another carved turn. You think about making turns with your face and chest while you switch your weight and balance to the new turning ski.
Not relaxed and smooth enough. 😒
Great stuff👍
Thank you. I do need to do different exercises to make carving shape.
Hi
Do you have climics in europe too?
Regards from romania
Hi Emil, yes I will be running two weeks of camps in Italy this spring if you are interested - send me an email and I can share more details on the camps. joshduncansmith@icloud.com
Love the hockey stop drill! Have never seen that before and it looks like a great way to get a feel for the flex and drop. Gonna try that tomorrow i think.
