  • Are you getting pressure to the tips of your skis?
    By pushing your inside shoulder to the outside tip, you can pressure the tip.
    The pressure comes through a "Helix" shape
    If you would like me to coach you like this, please send me your video, I am happy to break it down and send you back my feedback.
    If it worked for my wife, then it can work for you.

    Dad,
    I agree, your tip has definitely helped. As a result, she is starting her turn more with the lower body and less with swinging the shoulders. I would work on her posture with equal flex in ankles, knees and hips, arms carried more firmly forward and out, tighten the core just a little, and a feeling of stacked over the outside ski through the turn. But, she is your wife, not mine, I as well have to be careful or I am cleaning up more dishes.

    The focus was pressure from fall line to finish. Consider new ski pressure at top of turn to middle v middle to finish. Challenge, how light on the ski can we be at the bottom. An indicator as to how effectively we were able to pressure the majority from top to fall line.

    I think that pushing your outside shoulder closer to the outside tip has some effect, but this is not at all that important. The priority order must be 1. most important is what you do with your ankles and lower legs. These body parts are closest to the skis.. 2. Second important must be what you do with your balance, how do you use your whole torso over your skis and in the direction of the fall-line.
    Only next may come your shoulders, hands, head and so on.
    This skier makes skidded parallel turns, she does not cross over her skis, she just turn them on the snow surface (pivoting the skis).
    These turns are not advanced turns.
    For advanced turns you need to cross over your skis, so that your torso moves from the hillside of the skis to the valley-side and also you need to edge your skis with your ankles before the skis start to turn around your torso.
    There is no quick fix for that, moving the shoulder is not able to fix the issues of this skier.

      @@skidadTV Yes, understood, but the whole idea of downhill skiing is to let the edges of the skis to work, and for this you need edge angles that are high enough in order to avoid skidding of the skis in the direction of the fall-line.
      Shoulder movements can increase the edge angle a little. So she can feel happier, but this is just a very little step of improvement. Ask her if she is afraid of steep slopes and ice, she has all reasons to be...

    Hey Dad, love your videos. Question. What would you recommend for a good generic style of cleaner for the base of my skis? Something that's economical and that I might have hanging around the house? Thanks. JR

    We call them "Z" turns compared to rounded 'C' turns. Seperate the upper and lower body with some agulation.

      @skidadTV  Před 2 měsíci

      @frankacri1649 I have heard the “Z” vs. “C” thing quite a bit in PSIA. I believe it’s a misguided concept and has limited the development of high level skiers.
      I believe that the “coma” shape turn is the most accurate representation and will lead to a better final product

    @philliptoone Před 2 měsíci +1

    Let me see if I am catching what you are laying down here. When you initiate a turn to the left you generate pressure (or drive) from your right ski though core engagement that is consistent with the right shoulder driving into the turn (to the left) and into the fallline (downhill). This is what I teach but I'm not sure if this is what you are saying or not. There was some ambiguity for me in your explanation between right and left when explaining the shoulder motion. Thank you.

      @@skidadTV Hmmm, that's what I thought you were saying and it is opposite of what I teach. I'm going to have to experiment with this. Thinking about it from my computer right now I think that it may not matter so much left or right as long as the motion is in the core directed "down the hill". I'll let you know what I think after I play with this. Thanks for giving my something new to play with.

      @@skidadTV I played with this yesterday on the mountain and it was interesting how similar and yet different what you are teaching here is to what I 'usually' do and teach. Your approach of driving the shoulder opposite of the ski that you are driving engages the core in a similar way but feels more like a contra body movement position (CBMP) that I feel when I dance tango. This feels good and natural to me. My approach of driving the same shoulder and the ski feels more like I am driving into the turn like a racer. Both engage the core. Thanks again for giving me something new to think about and experiment with.
