Overhead shot really gives a much better understanding. Thanks!

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you for the comment. 😀 glad it helped.

[@mikekim6374]

Thank you so much for the visual demonstration! So much more clear than any other video on this topic!

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you I’m glad it helped. 😀 Thank you for your comment.

[@sandichen6600]

I've watched so many videos trying to explain this with words and your straightforward labeling was really all I needed. Can't thank you enough!!!

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you that’s awesome, I’m glad it helped 😀 Thank you for your comment.

[@KP-ru3oy]

You are amazing, short, to the point, super clear with the shot, active commentary. Easily the best instructive video I've ever watched, cheers!

[@skicoachingonline]

That's very kind, thank you I appreciate that, it was a tough one skiing with the camera in the bumps for the first time! 😂 sometimes a bit shaky. Thank you for your comment.

[@_kd23]

You are the MAN finally made a breakthrough with this. Thank you so much.

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you 😀

[@mski435]

Very helpful with the way you filmed this. Thank you this helps a lot

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you.

[@mrradman2986]

I never really understood this and hence skied in the troughs but always struggled with speed control. Looking forward to trying this out this season.

[@skicoachingonline]

Awesome. Let me know how it goes. Thank you for the comment.

[@adamsmith-bg5wq]

Very nice! Everybody always focuses on edging and absorption, but I never quite know what is a good line. Now I know better. Thanks!

Thank you

Great video! Thank you!

Thank you for watching.

[@sacraa77]

Great video, learning to see and pick lines in bumps is so key. Please get a helmet mount for your 360 cam, it would be great to see this again on a sunny slope to see holes and ridges a bit more clearly.

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you. I will do 😀

[@JordoGarcia]

Most helpful video on skiing moguls I’ve found. I’m excited to use this method this weekend. Thank you!

[@skicoachingonline]

That’s great. Let me know how it goes. All the best 💪🏻 Thank you for your commment.

[@JordoGarcia]

@@skicoachingonline you know, I went ok. But my friends encouraged me to go through them and just try to pivot really fast, so I ended up getting confused. We’re nearing the end of the season but I’m going to hold fast to this teaching and go through a couple more mogul runs before we run out of snow.

[@skicoachingonline]

Nice one. Yes it’s good to get in them as much as possible to get comfortable. Improve YOUR skiing in the MOGULS | How to ski MOGULS kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaDOeXSEfrJkhMU Here’s a compilation of moguls tips 😀 have fun.

Good luck and have fun. Thank you for your comment.

That's exactly what I have been doing and for me(I'm 67) it totally works,

[@skicoachingonline]

Fantastic 😀 thank you for the comment

[@sheppy101]

very simply explained

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you for your comment.

[@amundekroll7490]

I think you should get rid of the pivot to skid and learn how to make turns.

[@oliviamou60]

Notes: Ski from peak to peak. You don’t have to be at the very TOP of the peak, just be in lined with the peak and ski so you are half way up the peak. Ski in line or towards the peak to go side to side. If you ski in between the bumps you will end up using the bumps to slow you down, skid, and lose control. Your ski would have to be on the side of the bumps to slow down.

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you for your comment 👍🏻

[@FreeFloFloss]

nice filming 👍

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you.

[@tonyg3091]

Peak, to peak, to peak…as he moves through the troughs…😂😂😂

[@skicoachingonline]

The peak to peak is in reference to how far laterally my feet are going to get some speed control. Depending on the bumps you can ski the trough or on the face, but I make sure that you are somewhat in line with the peak. Thank you for your comment.

[@CN-dl2cj]

The last few turns look like they were in the troughs and sliding until hit the side. I don’t see the turn near the peak. On the first few turns yes, but after that they looked like the first example of skidding in the troughs and using the side to control speed

[@skicoachingonline]

Yes. The peak to peak element was just referring to the distance traveled across the slope. You can ski anywhere on the bump, wherever necessary (trough, ridge etc) for the desired outcome. Thank you for the comment 😃

[@KayBates-pn4vf]

He was not skiing over the peaks but half-way round the bumps so not peak or trough. The main tip I give about bump skiing is to have the correct pole plant which should just be wrist movement keeping hands in front so weight stays forwards. I used to judge world cup bump skiing.

[@skicoachingonline]

Absolutely, pole planting and keeping the weight a bit forward helps a lot. This video is about the feet/skis travelling across the hill in line with the peaks of the bumps. Not necessarily skiing just over the peaks or just the troughs but travelling a little more across the hill. I agree some of the bumps were skied half-way round as you said, but the skis/feet moved across the hill in-line with the peak of the bump. Then the skiers corridor across the bumps is a little wider, to allow for more speed control. Thank you for the comment 👍🏻

[@inquistive]

Steve, can you explain more what you mean by "peak" because that normally means at the top of the bump?

[@skicoachingonline]

Hey yes. Just in line with the peak of the bump. By peak I do mean the top of the bump. But you don’t have to ski over them. But make sure that you come far enough across the hill so that you are at least in line with the peak of the bump down the slope. Hope this helps. Thank you for the comment.

[@fjzingo]

Skiing bumps is the most exhausting thing, I can hear your breathing catchup just after avfew turns, how do I save energy not having to stop midway down the slope…I now excercise more, but then again

[@skicoachingonline]

It is tiring, I’ll be in there today filming a video on how to save energy. But mainly focus on outside ski balance and either speed control though Sideslipping or absorbing the bump. I was puffing, with all the talking and skiing and trying not to pole plant with my right pole 😂 Thank you for your comment.

[@fjzingo]

Great, looking forward. It's great fun to skiing bumps and with todays skis a walk in the park!@@skicoachingonline

[@ankitjb3]

You said not to go through troughs (as the free flowing water would follow) but traversed through troughs and at the end landed on peaks

[@skicoachingonline]

Moving peak to peak as in laterally across the hill, sometimes going into the trough is ok, as long as there is a reason for it, if it makes it easier to ski over towards where the peak is situated on the slope. Thank you for your comment.

[@ankitjb3]

Alright! So you mean not to worry about the path, just land on another peak, is it?

[@lawrencehicks9607]

Those look like E Race Pro Head skis? What size are they and how tall are you?

[@skicoachingonline]

Yes. They are 180cm and I am 193cm 😀

[@levleung2000]

if i say one should aim for the back of a peak to slow down, do you think i am correct?

[@skicoachingonline]

Sure, although you may need to be active with some leg flexing to absorb some of the pressure that will be built up skiing into the face of the bump. 😊 thank you for the comment.

[@levleung2000]

@@skicoachingonline thanks for your reply! looking forward to trying it on real snow!

[@gogglebro9421]

Steve, how did you film from overhead?

[@sublimerelaxations6772]

I think he used a 360 camera

[@gogglebro9421]

@@sublimerelaxations6772 Hoisted overhead on a boom?

[@skicoachingonline]

It was filmed with a Insta 360 on the selfie stick. Very awkward not pole planting with one hand. 😀

[@gogglebro9421]

@@skicoachingonlineI've never seen ski instruction in the bumps filmed from this vantage point before and it provides real images of your tactics. Props to the cameraman.

[@skicoachingonline]

Thank you. I have never skied with a selfie stick in the bumps before. It was tricky 😂 I’ll do some more to help talk about different lines in the bumps.

[@claudiomagnesi6205]

Oh my god 😅

[@MsMsmak]

Dude. You are literally skiing in the troughs almost every time.

[@skicoachingonline]

The peak to peak element was just referring to the distance traveled across the slope. You can ski anywhere on the bump, wherever necessary (trough, ridge etc) for the desired outcome. Thank you for the comment 😃

[@daviddowie828]

Moguls are easy on your 150cm skis....try that on 184 all mountain boards and you'll be catching the tails everywhere. Unless your a zipper line junkie most folk try and swivel/compress the skis near the top of the bump and extend into back side /trough...so by the time your in the trough your almost full height again.

[@skicoachingonline]

I am skiing on 180cm skis. Thank you for your comment.
