I'm confused, do I need to move my hips or my ankles to initiate an edge or are my legs straight vertically (knee bended)

Initially I liked this video and tips. But I then developed an excessive hip twist and dump. It’s proving hard to get rid of.
@KlausMairАй бұрын
The moving forward of the inside ski is just a drill to discover the feeling of carving. In the normal turn the skis stay levelled at the start of the turn. Maybe this will help make this clearer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGHHnXqbeb97opIsi=S96O2yEUGphmK7B4

I sow some skier doing the classical pro "toilet sit" but manage to stay fw on the change. what do you think about ?
@KlausMair Жыл бұрын
In the flatter sections you will see most of them stay low but in the steeper sections with more offset the best ones will move more to hit the critical turns as well as possible (which is part of the reason why the ones that move more like Odermatt and Shiffrin dominate). You can get forward and on top sufficiently by staying low and extending into the turn but it comes with more risk to not hit it as clean and for the recreational skier it is a lot harder to achieve. I show and explain that in detail on Coaching Taka. sofaski.com/product/coaching-taka-carving-medium-radius-turns/

Hello Klaus, what is the weight percentage from outside ski pressure and inside ski pressure? 80% - 20%? 100% - 0%? Thanks.
@KlausMair Жыл бұрын
You need to be on the outside ski enough so the ski carves and does not start to slide without you wanting it to. At all times during the turn you want to be in a position where you are able to adjust, so you can increase outside ski pressure to the amount necessary to achieve that. (talk about that in part 2)

@KlausMair Жыл бұрын
Once you have understood and felt how flexing can help you create release you can use it in different parts of the turn, especially when you need the release right away. It is one of many moves and you want to be carefull that this is not the only thing you do, especially if you should feel that you get stuck over the heels and struggle with speed control once it gets steeper.

@KlausMair Жыл бұрын
In this particular drill we try to be extra patient at the start of the turn. On an easy run we want to experience how the skis start to turn by themselves without us rushing, pushing, rotating,... The purpose of this is to discover this sensation. In normal skiing we can also turn the skis into the turn at the start (see Part 2) or actively steer them a bit as we go through it, but also there we just want to do it out of our legs and not by pushing with the body.

@@KlausMair :::not sure where i say that... ============= It's a pity that you have not said that, for the carving skis, if used correctly, are designed to turn itself. See explanation: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXmpaaaHmZaCrNE Trying to turn the skess is the main newbie's mistake resulting in skidding. Instead you need to put the skis on edges and bend then applying preasure on your shins. All other stuff like correct posture, angulation etc serve these purposes of edging and bending

Great explanation. Much more realistic than most of ski coaches approaches. Most of them disregard the fact that majority of non expert skiers Do Not have strong ankles to push their body forward without standing upward and using their weight. Ankles push alone with center of gravity being behind the middle of the skis, requires an extremely athletic person to be able to do it properly. This is moving the center of gravity forward, only by using the ankles, without the help of other muscles, like quadriceps (when extending upward)! Like Klaus mentioned, before advising the skier on which method to be used, one must clearly understand the latest physical fitness level. Congrats Klaus for highlighting such an important point.
@KlausMair Жыл бұрын
Thank you :) and it is not just that but also neglecting the fact that it is one of the key moves the dominating racers like Odermatt and Shiffrin (as well as Hirscher in the past) use to ski the crucial passages, where they want to make sure that they hit next turn as clean as possible.

This is so a great video, thanks a lot! This and last season I worked on increasing edge angles and it seems that I found too many tips (eg. toppling, lowering hip, flex/extend...) that took my attention from the basics and trusting my feelings. As result, I realized that I ski worse, over flexed, leaning with my hips and upper body on the inside leg... I'm looking forward to my end-season ski trip to have more time to practise and return to solid foundations. Servus!

When I taught which is several years ago I used this drill only I held the poles palms up which tended to bring the skiers head and eyes up improving their fore aft balance and I also used a very light touch having my hands open not squeezing the poles which loosened their fore arms taking away tension and had them move their hands through the turn and notice the relationship with how their hand, arms, shoulders, hips, knees and ankles moved through the turn while still matching the angle of the slope throughout the turn. I made them more fluid kept their body moving and avoided being static and locked in any one position. I was a level 3 instructor and taught for 26 years and used this drill a lot.

@@KlausMair As expected it went really well. I find kids tend to "forget"/not apply some of the proper technique they have managed last time. My kid tends to use the technique only when she really needs it (steeper slopes) and is building bad habits from skiing on easier runs - not edging enough, sitting back. These few tricks helped my 7 year old daughter remember the technique learnt a few months ago quickly. It's a very good refresher for proper technique and works much better then explaining what they should do. Thanks for taking the time to put this online!
