- It's great conditions right now because it's soft enough for us to trust in skiing a more direct line. I thought everybody looked really good committing to keeping our shoulders and hips down the fall line. And in this snow, remember our feet aren't pinned together; we still have a good, stable foundation. It's our knees that are rolling in the direction that we want to go. So just practice on this upper section, the S-shape turns, okay? Feeling your weight on the ball of your foot is something I'd like everybody to kind of feel. Imagine if everybody has their skis sideways going across the hill, and you lean your body forward and feel your shins way in the front of your boot. Your weight is on the ball of your foot. Now bend your knees and pick your chest up and your hips too, so you're tall but you still have the weight on the ball of your foot and that shin pressure. Do you feel that? Okay, so that's kind of the goal that we want to feel. When we've got that kind of pressure, it's going to start the shape, the turn is going to start at the tip of the ski, and that's what we're looking for, that's our edging and speed control. It's merely rolling our knees and pointing them in the direction we want to go, and the ski is going to come around. I don't need to see a step, you know, we don't need the old style, we don't need to do a stem Christie with modern equipment. That's all gone away. And as mogul skiers, we want to keep that quickness. Okay, so let's just practice down here. Be patient with it, you know, feel and don't give up that shin pressure that you just felt, all right? And tall from our hips to the top of our head. Did you feel your shins more than you normally do? Yeah, it makes a big difference because then we're starting to use the tip of the ski, and if we pressure that ski, it's going to come right around. If our weight is back on a flat foot and our heel, all we're using is this part of the ski, and that's like turning on the gas pedal, and we're going to go faster. So feel the shins. So we are going to go back to feeling that downhill knee stay soft, right? No dropping the anchor, and just nice shin pressure. Our feet aren't pinned; it's our knees that give us the illusion that our feet are together, right? Because we want to have that stable foundation, right? Yeah
So, what our goal today is, like I said, we're really going to focus on absorption and keeping ski snow contact when we're in the moguls. So, we're going to practice just right here on the flats, um, absorbing what we call absorbing the flats, and we're going to plant our pole with our knees. And as we turn around the pole, we're pulling our feet back. So, we're really going to exaggerate this low and pulling our feet back.

Love this video, and hope to join you again-with mogul skis! 😉
Julie, I was out skiing yesterday in about 4 in of powder crud on top of a very firm base. I tried bending, pole plant, standing up tall and pulling my feet back drill that you demonstrated. It really simulates mogul skiing except you're on the flats. Then I started to focus on the mounds of powder and did the same, pre-absorbing before each mound of powder then standing up tall. It worked incredibly well. In fact, it was so effective in these conditions, I skied the rest of the afternoon that way. Amazing! TY, TY
Thank you so much for the instructions. Really useful!
Love the fresh new video…ah!!!!!!! Great long and informative video…the student are killing it. 😊
Awesome video Julie. I love the drills and your step by step tutorial. I learned a ton. Thanks for posting. Cheers!
You should make a video specifically showing us how to do the Olivia Giaccio's drill
One of the most cohesive demonstrations I have seen. Been teaching 30 years and this lady knows her stuff. There are minor things that I would add, depending on the student. E.g. sometimes I say ‘sit down on the top of the bump” instead of “absorb the bump” (depends on what the student is responding to).
"I really like this: E.g. sometimes I say ‘sit down on the top of the bump” More please...
@@julierayrealtor7996 there are many mnemonics for skiing. Your ‘Superman’ tip on leaning on the tongues can also be “pull your heels out of the boot” (often taught with loose top buckles). I sometimes ask “are you a lover or a fighter?” - a lover will lean forward and hug me; I can then adjust the hips and relax the back and shoulders. Another concept is to drop a plumb line (I use the pole) from the shoulder; the pole tip should point at the binding toe piece. Of course, the butt should not be a counter-weight; pushing the pelvis can be a good concept, too. So much depends on what habits and/or fears the student brings to the slope. That said, I ALWAYS start teaching expert skiing on a basic beginner slope; technique without the benefit of gravity pays off when you head to the bumps and steeps.
@@Osnosis Thank you for sharing your extensive knowledge and unique mnemonics for skiing! It's fascinating to see the variety of approaches instructors use to convey proper technique. Your "lover or fighter" analogy and the visual of dropping a plumb line from the shoulder are particularly insightful. It's evident that tailoring instruction to individual habits and fears is key to effective teaching. And your emphasis on starting with basic slopes to build a strong foundation before tackling more challenging terrain is certainly wise advice. Happy skiing!
Love the image of sitting down on top of the bump. Great visual!
Great video. I just wished you had black poles contrasting with the snow. Much easier to see on the video! 😂
Hi Julie. Good chatting with you last night at the Super Bowl party. Thanks for all the great videos! Coach Rob
Hi Coach Rob! It was great chatting with you too at the Super Bowl party! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. Have a fantastic day! - Julie
Excellent video. But all your students are already expert strong skiers 😅.
Great Video! Will you also be one of the instructors for mogul clinic in winter park?
@RickyShi0823 The program I am involved with is the Adult Mogul Program at Winter Park. Here is the link:www.winterparkresort.com/things-to-do/competition-center/winter-programs/adult-mogul-program
Hi Julie. Wow you’re a great instructor. Love the technique, tactics and communication. I ski 100+ days a year mostly on a 65 underfoot FIS SL ski. Moguls/bumps def an opportunity for me. I’m
considering a IDOne Freeride of some sort, probably under 70 underfoot. I’d love to hear your POV on equipment. I live on a run in Deer Valley so unlikely to get to your beautiful mountain and clinic, so let me know if you’re ever in my neck of the woods. Thanks again for your great video instruction.
Anthony,
I would love to connect and take a few runs! I spend as much time as I can in Park City. I will be out on March 31st! Deer Valley is my favorite! I could ski the Champion course all day!! See you soon!!
Champion! I only dare to look at that course. This year’s world cup was awesome. Olivia killed it! We could also talk private coaching (per DV rules) if your schedule permits
@@anthonyvacca4898 my number is attached at the end of the video- message me your contact info. We will definitely meet and make some runs!
Are you PSIA certified?
Are you a Winter Park Ski & Ride School Instructor?
I work for the Winter Park Competition Center and am a Level 3 Certified Coach and Former US Freestyle Ski Team Member.
Wow, those are impressive credentials, Julie. BTW, regarding PSIA I don't think they really get skiing moguls the modern Word Cup way. At least, I've never seen any PSIA instructors taking a direct line in the moguls. Rather, they ski around the mogul making very rounded turns. Myself, I'm a Killington skier, (Hannah Soar's home mountain), and ski a very direct line, the way you teach it.@@julierayrealtor7996
Wow, impressive credentials. BTW, I've never seen a PSIA instructor take a direct line in the moguls, they just follow the rut line which is old school IMO.@@julierayrealtor7996
