Want to beat the best in the world? You've got to learn how to move like the best in the world. Back to the basics is a constant theme at the elite level.
From beginner to racer. That's what skiing is! The only difference is speed and the amount your lean your hip down the hill to start the turn. That also proves that a new turn is started with the positioning of the upper body to create the leg angle that puts the skis on edge. You start a new turn from your eyes down, not from your feet up.
Try snappy directional changes while running on a descending angle treadmill. Build potential energy by preloading the directional change in the hip, oblique, and core (twist like golf). This is clutch for driving hips further down the fall line. It can deliver > 1000 millesecond improvements in run time. And always, get your center of mass as low as possible while producing sufficient fall line forward lean (gravity research) Bend zay knees. 5 dollars pleaze.
It shocks me how many supposedly qualified coaches do not talk about or understand the biomechanical significance of this pelvic bone motion / tilt. It literally is mandatory that the pelvic bone "switch" like this in transition. Deb Armstrong is one of the few I have seen highlight this motion. Coaches love to talk about how the turn starts with tipping the ankles and feet, but that is not possible for some skiers depending on how their body works. If you do not switch the pelvic bone tilt, your feet cannot distribute pressure properly on boot board, and thus the ski. So the turn really starts with this "hip switch". Don't believe it? Try this experiment on your own. Go to a really moderate/flat slope. Get in a proper strong centered position with good shin pressure on the tongues. Point em straight downhill. Now....FEEL the pressure on the bottoms of your feet as you slowly accelerate. Feel the pressure. Now, hike your hip in which ever direction you prefer to start with. Don't even think about which way you want to turn. Just say....from a neutral position, going straight DH "I am going to hike my left hip WAY UP" and do that exaggerated pelvic bone tilt. As you raise the left side of whole pelvic bone, FEEL the pressure distribution on the BOTTOM OF YOUR RIGHT FOOT. IT DRAMATICALLY CHANGES. All the pressure shifts to the inside of your loaded foot and the skis will immediately start tipping. The turn does not start with the feet....it starts with the pressure distribution on the bottom of the feet. But it is this hip / pelvic bone "tilt" that controls the pressure on the bottom of your feet. I was having trouble "starting my turns from the feet/ankles up" and asked our Masters program coaches about the role of the hip..and they scoffed at actively focusing on hip tilt/hike. These were ex US team coaches (albeit in the 80s/90s)....! I guess they do not believe in biomechanical impediments that some skiers have, and prefer to just say "do this" without helping you figure out HOW to do it. I chose to ignore them, skip gate training, and go work on this for DAYS. It has changed my skiing. Some people naturally have tight hips that do not want to move in this way. Other people, you tell them to initiate the turn by tipping with the feet, and they naturally switch their pelvic bone tilt to start the turn. I am the former. My hips JUST DO NOT WANT TO DO THIS. So I had to concentrate on it really hard, and do literally thousands of turns trying to ingrain this motion. Now the coaches comment on how dramatically transformed my skiing is. Go figure. A really good pairing of drills is to do these "hip hikes" rapidly back and forth down the fall line like Mikaela does at 0:14 to 0:23. Then do some Javelin turns at speed while concentrating on using the pelvic bone tilt for a long time on longer radius turns. See Brandon's other video showing "early season drills", and look at the STRONG CARVING Javelin turns in that video. You literally can not do these strong carve Javelin turns without the hip hike / pelvic bone tilt. Do them fast....on GS skis, and it will teach you to get stacked and balanced over that outside ski. Use variance in hip hike / tilt and edge angling from the strong foot to adjust balance/lean. The golden moment is when your body gets ahead of the skis, and you lean in too much, and fall over early in the turn, and respond not by putting the ski down, but by increasing the hip hike and tipping from the feet to tighten the turn radius and catch yourself. To add another challenge, switch back and forth between SL and GS skis. Do the rapid hip switch drills, then the strong carve Javelin turns on your SL skis...then switch to the GS skis....and learn how the two types of skis respond differently to input. Going from GS to SL is easy. Going from SL to 30m GS skis is tough.
Those coaches and Deb Armstrong are 100% wrong in everything they teach! Instructors have to explain skiing to students in the simplest and easiest to understand form. Compare what you said to this. "In order to create a carved turn, from a steep traverse across the slope to your left while balancing on your right foot, face and lean your hands and chest down the hill as you take your weight and balance off your right foot and balance on your left foot. Then you lift your right cheek and slide it over onto a barstool. The farther you slide it over, the steeper the leg angle and the more your ski will be on the edge to grip the snow and bend to create a carved turn." Everything that you said and all the other instructors in the world say, will happen naturally. By discussing all that other stuff, the student will not know what to do to make them happen. P.S. Javelin Turns are useless Gimmicks that not only don't teach anything, but they also put your body into unnatural and anti-skiing positions and can trip you up. Stop with the drills and gimmicks and just teach people how to ski. It really isn't that hard.
@@JB91710 do you even listen to yourself? Do you even read your own posts? All these people who have achieved great things both as competitors and as instructors know nothing, and you, a nobody, who cannot even ski at an advanced level, know it all. Yes JB...they are all wrong, and you are right. I think you need to seek professional help, like a psychologist or psychiatrist. You have some serious issues bud.
@@JB91710 You are stating that it is important to give students a "big picture" motion to practice and that their bodies will figure out the details. I agree. That is literally what a drill is. Javelin turns are (in my experience) the very best possible drill for asking your body to teach itself to hike the hip, stack strong, and build bulletproof fundamentals. It's literally the only drill I do and it re-teaches me to ski every year, with 10 turns down the bunny hill worth run after run of freeskiing. Deb and her colleagues are technical experts discussing technical aspects of skiing for a technical-minded audience. I appreciate their dialogue in all of its precision and detail. If you focus a little more on the value that can be found in the perspectives you are critiquing instead of making everything so adversarial and dogmatic, it supports the whole community in developing the best pedagogies possible. You also might have more fun.
@@gbudning First of all, "hike the hip, stack strong, and build bulletproof fundamentals." teaches nothing and makes My Point. Fancy words don't teach, they just confuse and deflect a student's attention away from the fact the those who use them have no idea how to teach skiing. As far as the Javelin Turn, there is no move in skiing where you rotate your uphill leg in that manor. Tell me in detail how twisting your uphill leg to point the ski down the hill teaches anything that just unweighting it while keeping it parallel to the downhill ski, won't. "Deb and her colleagues are technical experts discussing technical aspects of skiing for a technical-minded audience." She and her colleagues do no such thing. All they do is the same thing all other instructors do; they focus on what parts of the body look and feel like and describe those things instead of how you position your upper body and change your weight to allow the skis to make the turns for you, which are what create what skiing looks and feels like. You don't appreciate their dialogue; you are entertained by it because there isn't a person on Earth who can understand how to make a turn after listening to it. Tell me how to make a parallel turn based on everything you learned from them.

Don't forget, teach me how to make a parallel turn from start to finish based on everything you have learned from all your heroes. Also, why your skis will turn when you do those things. I will be glad to critique everything you say.
@@JB91710 I hope you can see that we are both working towards the same goal: spreading the love for the sport by making it accessible. I appreciate you collaborating with me. My words are hilariously vague if you expect them to teach you how to ski, but they cannot. The drills must do the teaching- this is why young children can ski like missiles long before they can explain how they do so. In fact, I think that teaching skiing is incredibly hard. Even explaining skiing is hard. Deb's words about driving her hip to manage large forces have helped me to learn the same techniques by giving me words to describe the way I feel as I ski. I am always listening. I am reading your words right now, and thinking carefully about them. I am a student of the sport, for no reason but the love of the sport. I learned so young that I cannot remember it, stopped skiing in my teens, and have spent the last 3 seasons making up for all the technical development I missed during a 10 year hiatus. These people have helped me teach myself dynamic short turn skills, to discover rebound and lateral acceleration I never knew as a micro missile who could rail the edge. A great deal of my inside leg cueing comes from Deb's videos with Wilson. As an advanced student, I am so grateful for the wisdom that they have shared. The hill teaches too. The javelin is powerful not just for its cartoonish inside leg position, but because the awdward posture forces you to become very strong on your outside ski- or fall over. The inside leg cuing in my opinion doubles asa drill for turning on the right muscles for edging the inside ski. This is why ultimately, nobody can explain to anybody how to do a parellel turn. Demonstrations and drills are absolutely essential for motor learning of any type. The words help us to understand our feelings after we have learned them, so that we can workshop them together and share ideas. On the other hand, it is simple enough to explain that skis carve because their sidecut causes them to bend when placed on edge and pressured. I appreciate your thoughtful response. I am impressed by your 55 years of skiing. I congratulate you! I aspire to such a career.
Brandon, does this keep her from getting too inside, too early? I'm getting inside, too early kind of creating a static position throughout the turn vs dynamic. Wondering if this might be a good drill to get on top of the ski before rolling? Thanks!
Hi Andy, I would make certain your boots are aligned/canted perfectly. A good boot person can check for alignment. If you are not aligned correctly you will always become static on the stance foot. Discounting alignment, the essential complimenting skill when shortening the inside leg by any means is to always counterbalance when you begin to tip the both skis. You might hear folks speak of leveling the shoulders but this verbal cue doesn't level the shoulders. Lower the outside hand (a lot!) by recruiting the abdominal muscles throughout the arc of the turn as you tip both skis.
@@stevencooney9236 You have to create a picture in a students mind that they can easily remember that will put all their body parts in the right place. Read my comment.
@@JB91710 JB thanks for the response...with the barstool feel...do you feel this same thing without doing the drill or is that feel for the drill? Thanks!
@@walktherat1 "To tell someone to Hip Hike, doesn't tell you what to do with every part of your body to get the result you are looking for. Just like when someone tells you to "Tip your knees" or roll your ankles or twist your feet. Those things, including Hip Hiking, only describe what individual parts of your body look and feel like, not How to make them look and feel like that. The "Barstool Cristy" is something that everyone is familiar with and can easily remember. It tells you how to change your weight from one foot to the other and puts every part of your body in the correct position to make a carved turn. To make a parallel turn, you think of standing on the pedals of a bicycle, one at a time, with your hands on the handlebars. When you want to make a turn from a traverse, point the front tire down the hill and get off your downhill foot arch and balance on your uphill foot arch. Gravity, your momentum and the ski design will make the turn happen. Pedaling a bicycle down the hill and sitting on the edge of a barstool, that's skiing. The only other thing you need to know is how to slow down and stop. That is easy to visualize too. The tongue of your downhill boot is the brake pedal. While making a turn, press your shin against the tongue and twist your kneecap so it points into the slope. That loads the tip of the ski while making the tail light. Twisting the knee into the slope helps to put that weight on the inside edge of that downhill ski.
Imagine you are standing between two Barstools. You want to rest your Right cheek on the Right Barstool. Take your weight off your Right foot, lift your Right cheek and slide it over onto the Right Barstool. By lifting your cheek, you are forcing your upper body to stay vertical. By sliding your cheek over to the Barstool, you are creating the new leg angle that your left ski needs to roll it over. It is Not a movement by your knee to the side alone. So, there is no "Tipping!" Without the proper upper body position and weight change, you won't be able to balance on that outside ski with "Tipping" alone.

That was a nice visualization you can mimic. The problem is, you can't mimic ski moves. You have to understand what skiing is because everything that comes naturally to you is incorrect. Even trying to understand what you see here will be partially backwards. A person can learn more from reading the correct moves that they can visualize, understand and remember and take with them to the slopes, than they can from watching someone do it.
Truly we all must internalize things we see then visualize, convert into actions we experience as we begin our functional understanding of nature = F.U.N.
