Thank you for the drills. Will try it tomorrow.

Alpine skiing is one of the most complex coordination techniques. The most important part of learning it is to figure the steps driving all parts of the body into one complex harmony of movement. Which you are by far one of the best in advising on. These exercises you suggest are brilliantly simple and definitely leading in the right direction. Thanks a lot.

@@ArgueNaught I totally agree with your sentiment on alpine skiing…it’s such a beautiful sport for that exact reason! I’m glad the information helps. Let me know how it goes when you next get on snow.

Way to break down the crabwalk exercise and then bring it back into skiing! Very useful for our upcoming training in 5 months...can't wait!

👍 Great exercises! I always need to feel the edge of the ski before I start skiing.

I like the 1st and 3rd drills the best as they don't require a pushing off from the carving/outside ski. Given that the turns u r using the drills to help u perform require the skis to cross under your torso, I think that 2nd drill could cause some mechanical confusion. As always, greatly admire your skiing and teaching!

If done correctly, the Crab Walk will let the skier "feel" the carve on the outside ski. Thanks for the flawless demos !!

I run with similar tactics. I want my team to know what the sensations are when I take them to the steeps the first time. They may have skied steeps many times and considered them self "good enough" to ski steeps but they rapidly realize these and similar tasks induce kinesthetic reactions simulating forces in the turm. When taken to steeps or higher speeds kinetic energy replaces kinesthetic reactions, so it is easier. My team freaks out about how much easier it is when you manipulate pressure properly. Compaction satisfaction is the well structured platform (Mass Energy density Stress Tensor) we build with every turn gauging pressure to manipulate the platform temperature gradient for maximum exclusion zone hyperfluidity.... Maximum Compaction Satisfaction.

hello Joshua I am your big fan , from South Korea nice to meet you btw i think you need to develop your transition part . there is your kind of weakness. if you want to know my opinion, please reply about my comment. I am sure, if you develop your transition , your turn would be more perfect

Thanks! But what I don't like in all these exercises is that you are bending your knee sideways, which is wrong. You don't do that when you skiing at speed with full force, because it may damage your knee.

It is not possible to bend the knee sideways, unless when incurring an injury, which he is not. What you see is internal hip rotation that points the leg, including the knee, inwards. Try it.

Don't want to unfairly criticize your teaching here but getting the inside (mostly unweighted) ski at a matching edge angle to the outside ski where one naturally is concentrating on is important and not addressed in these exercises.

You must have missed that lesson 😊. No, seriously, that’s a different topic. The topic here is, you’re steering at the top of the turn. Then, how do you get the skis to bite in the middle of the turn?

From a perspective of intermediate to advanced skier that would like to improve the skiing this drills look more like tricks shown by already well formed skier. I think that the skier that can do this and reach the control to perform drill 1 and drill 3 properly, probably has already mastered the required technique to do very good short turns so this "tricks" looks just like having fun.

This is a medium radius turn at high frequency.Here is a great misunderstanding of kinetic energy.

@@amundekroll7490 call it what you like, medium/short doesn’t really matter…as long as you’re achieving the ski performance outcomes then you’ll be skiing well and all is good :-)
