Freestyle Skiers First Time on Slalom Skis

In this video, you get to tag along with me a freestyle skiers first time on slalom skis. I reflect on the experience as I go ski piste, powder and park on slalom skis. The thing that was the best about the experience was learning how to carve a full circle and doing euro carves in the park. It was rad! ⛷ Become a well-rounded Skier that can shred at our brand new Ski Technique Camps for adults: stompittutorials.com/camps/

Proof it ain’t the hammer it’s the carpenter

Wanderlust073 well said

[@swirlyful]

well when you're an expert you can make anything work, but when learning it's better to have proper tools

[@jacobnovak1604]

Yes but a carpenter can’t put in a nail with a plastic toy hammer

Wears slalom skis, proceeds to grind rails. Me as a former racer who tuned his own skis >:[

The fun of it doesn't come from being good, it's from doing it. Get out and ski, how good you are doesn't matter.

[@LimpiezasMyG]

@@Easy_Reef to a certain point you are right... anyways... if you dont have the level required you can't do half of the stuff you want, or you "can" do it the wrong way and hurt yourself (or look like a dumbass) ;)

First time on Slalom Skis, and instantly looks better then 95% of people riding them, haha :) This was so much fun to watch! I really Like this Vlog Style Video, please do more of that. Love your Attitude, you seem to be such a sympathic, positive Guy... Keep it Up! ;)

[@TheFreddieFoo]

This goes to show how important the basics of skiing are.

Why is that surprising? The guy makes a living skiing lol

Glad to hear you like it! 🙏 Thank you

[@nikelike8829]

Finally a new video thanks 🙏🏼. Love them. Keep them up, please

[@Nussibuur]

I'm often in the park with slalom skies. It might not be optimal but it somehow works. And the good thing is, that you still can enjoy the normal slopes. I pesonally think that the best skiers are playfull - such as you- and enjoy every kind of skiing.

[@noahunterhans]

So much positive energy! Keep it up!

[@msklovely]

kudos to whoever done the shots and editing did an amazing job 👌. also the slopes and the mountains in the background look so good

[@roryedwards2811]

[@Montuckish]

“Let’s do manual carves.” Proceeds to make backseat turning look good lmao

[@FreehandElm]

I agree with the statement "its the skier not the skis," because the truth is a good skier can ski any ski on any snow. But I feel like a lot of people misinterpret this as _"there isn't really a difference in skis, its more a difference in skill."_ This video shows that there *is a difference* in skis that can affect your skiing (and that a good skier can ski on anything). I love how they ask him to describe the distinct differences between the carving skis and the skis he's used to shredding on in the park, like how the tails behave differently and how much stronger his carves are going into jumps. Good video

[@HungryElasticRaccoon]

I really enjoy seeing you have fun around the mountain. I'm glad you had such a fun day!

[@xProReVoLuTiiON]

[@dlevi67]

Great to see you having fun! Thank you very much for the video - I miss Laax!

[@AndrewRedman01]

Jens this is a freeky FUN video. Great job. I've been watching your basics/carving videos a lot... and it's incredible to see how much more aggressive and energetic your carving gets when you switch from twin tips to these. Really makes me want to go back on carvers again, so thank you! Although I think I'll stick to twins to practice switch, as even though you made it look easy, it would make me feel very nervous for the back of my head! Brilliant video, thanks again, to you and your team.

[@Gordeaux]

Really good insightful video. I like your videos for traditional grooming skiers that are moving to off Prost and park free ride. This season I’m moving from carving skis to all mountain powder skis. I’m used to carving fast and am worried I’m going to loss that grip and power I’ve been used to for so many year. I’ve purchased the Salomon XDR-80, fingers crossed I get the best of both worlds. Keep up the great content 👍🏼

[@Zipfelhuber76]

You're funny, informative and eloquent. Keep it doing what you do! Nice Redsters by the way...

[@benene055]

I love your videos so much, please do more this winter! Maybe some more freeride oriented stuff (if conditions permit)?

[@ikeith85ik]

Great video! Yea I definitely like this kind of content. I like the variety.

[@n0m1c]

That was so fun to watch!

[@MG-pw7jp]

This guy is literally my skiing IDOL. I have power but get soo nervous as I start gaining speed that I just loose confidence and slow down.

[@SwityBAM]

That was fun!! I’ll be going to Austria this Friday ⛷😎 cant wait :)

[@foreranger]

Absolut geil, du zeigst, dass es nicht vom Ski abhängig ist was man machen kann, sondern allein nur von der eigenen Performance!

[@enriquecoscarelli712]

Man, thanks for this.

[@xandervanommen3777]

Thank you for this video! First of all it was very cool and satisfying to watch and secondly it alsp gave me confidence! I'vee been skiing on carving skis for like my whole life but the last few years i really wanted to get more into freestyle skiing, but since i always go on skiing holidays with my family i'd rather have carving skis to make longer trips etc, so i was always a little scared to go switch and get into the parks and stuff, but this video has shown me its actually possible to do some basics on carving skis! I will definitely be trying some more things out this year! :)

[@fernandog.aguirre2791]

Now it's time to do the same with a snowboard! ;) Gillar detta format, hoppas på fler liknande videos i vinter!

[@fyodorgalyukov]

I LOVE THIS FORMAT!!! I was looking for one of these videos for soooooo long(freestyle/park tricks in non twin-tips). Because I have long, stiff, heavy, non twin-tip, carving skis. In which I wanted to learn a tame-dog front flip. I'd appreciate it if you made a video of you doing tricks in longer skis.

[@hughesmax]

I got a pair of blizzard bonafide that I usually ski. Last year I tried a head worldcup ski, wow what a feeling it is to carve those badboys. Grym video!!!

[@michaeljanssen3346]

Really nice stance Jens! Good video to see what you can do with stiff Redstars lol!

[@jeffh7021]

I have some sweet power skis, but nothing is quite like riding on a hard charging carving stick. I love them all.

[@expatinasia]

In truth, I'm surprised by how good your form is.

[@lucasvissenberg6511]

Love this video! But different than the usual.

[@respo7306]

The fact that u flipped on carving skies blows my mind haha great video

[@chunweichang6109]

Love it so much! I am using carving ski all the time and not dare to get into park cuz I’m afraid it might hurt the base of my skis.

[@zknarc]

Those a some very good looking SL turns my friend!

[@chrism9976]

We didn't have these tricks in the 80s. All skis were built like this and going backwards was a gamble. Nice to see how the sport has progressed.

[@cvn6555]

Good technique translates to any type of skiing. Looked like he was ready for gates when he was carving turns at the beginning.

[@urbanrunoff]

this was so awesome! when I go to he park on my race carvers I look like a kook!

[@kon_hatz]

COOOOOOL!!!!! 😍😍😍😍

[@poly_hexamethyl]

Nice skiing! Those slalom skis can be nasty sometimes...sproing you up in the air like a trampoline if you get your timing off a bit. But you skied awesome!

[@dantf537]

dude try out some GS skis, now thats difficult to do anything else but carve at full speed ahah having both GS & freeride skis is the sickest mix though, have different shred days depending on the mood. Dope vids btw keep it up.
