Best video about carving. Just look it many times as you can with full your attention and than go to the slop to practice it. Thank you so much for this video Joshua- you are a great sport ski athlete and a coach. This information and performance is brilliant! Use it.

Great video , but you dont actually ski any toxic snow conditions in your lesson. No bulletproof ice, solid wind crust or 15inches of chopped up heavy wet snow on medium angle slope....those are challenging conditions where Keeping your hips/knees in neutral is key to stay in control as resistance varies, a great tip from Rob Deslaurier.

Thank you for the video, this one sets itself apart from other instructionals in one statement "how the ski interacts with the snow;" so simple, yet the absolute truth as much as "where the tires hit the pavement." I would love to see these concepts transferred to a backcountry approach in addition to the near-bounds off piste.

I've just come across your instructional videos. I have only seen a few so far but it's clear that you are an intelligent fellow, as well as a highly skilled skier/instructor) who can concisely focus attention on the fundamental aspects of what you are teaching. You obviously think through and plan your videos with great care. The commentary that accompanies your videos meshes well thus producing a very polished product for your "students" to view, listen to and most importantly understand. Bravo!

Hi josh, in the transition, how do you force your legs to come underneath you?

I think the main thing is the turn shape will be different as I would be able to stay on top of the snow more allowing me to ski more of an open larger turn shape. If I am in the trees then I think things will be rather similar. @@icbc228

I don't bother to patch it with extra padding. I think we just have to pick the brand that caters to our particular foot shape. Some are made for wider feet and some others are for narrower feet.

Howdy, few questions since i got the same boot (3:1 shell and cuff) fitted few days ago: -Which parts of the ZF Corsa are different in volume to the stock liner (and did your fitter add additional cork)? -Does the all-leather interior make a big difference for you? I love Zipfits and got them in my normal alpine and freeride boots but the stock liner in the RC4 Podium actually has quite similar construction to a ZF (neoprene toebox, cork-pouches around the ankles, lacing), kinda hard to justify dropping 450$ just for the leather and cork-tounge^^ Also, did you try other flex cuffs than the 3:1 on snow, if so how big was the difference? You'd think a 3:1 flex boot would feel like your foot is cast in concrete, but the RC4 actually flexes quite pleasantly. If anything i'm thinking about trying the 2:1 cuff they offer...
@JoshuaDuncanSmithАй бұрын
I find the fore foot part of the corsa to be the most beneficial when it comes to taking up space in the boot for me, I did not get extra cork put in to mine. I find the leather makes it fit nicely and it holds its structure for longer. This is defiantly each to their own...I use the ZipFit because I just felt the stock liner in the Podium was a bit too thin and ultimately wasn't enough for me. I have only tried the 3:1 cuff and for me I really like it, as you say it still gives nicely. If I have an opportunity to try some other cuffs I will but for me teaching everyday I don't think I will need anything stiffer than 3:1 cuff and 4:1 clog.

Thanks, Always great videos with excellent skiing, I used to tell my ski class to DRIVE their skis through any and every condition encountered so they could maintain a good turn shape and a smooth constant rhythm. It took awhile for intermediate skiers to learn the concept of a good strong ski platform so they could DRIVE their skis through any condition.

It depends on your body size and ski level...I would say if you find your current boots too flexible then you should try a 120 or stiffer. Personally I use a 170 cuff and 150 shell.

Weak tip. Hands are all over the road and do not maintain an athletic balanced position. Decent skiing but lame tip. A pole plant is a wrist action not an arm action. Here is a proper tip for pole plants. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zl6bfJiwmsd_jdE
