How to carve on steep runs? 👇

❌ On steeps, intermediates tend to spend too long in the fall line, making it hard to control their speed.

✅ Experts bend their ski to create a tighter arc across the hill (smaller radius turns) to create more fiction.

🔥 Carv can measure this. If your turn radius is less than the radius written on your skis, you’re correctly bending them.

Follow for part 2 tomorrow, where we’ll share some drills to help practice this.

What about the radius

Knees hips shoulders and body position in in sequence and harmony will make the turn beautiful. Work of legs without work or body will not solve it and movement of body will not solve the downer part.😍

Hey if anyone can answer this. I am snowboarder thinking of switching carving skis. I have skied in my life before. How do the carving skis react to hard snow/icy conditions? Could it be a pain in the b***? Thank you in advance 🙏🏻

I carve better on blues and blacks due to traffic and not enough speed on greens
