3 Ski Challenges and 3 Tips to Ski Better

In this video, you get to tag along with Jens as Josh as they go head to head in 3 ski challenges. In the first challenge, they get to go carving and try to get as high edge angles as possible on increasingly difficult slopes. In the second challenge, they compete on who does the best turns and lastly who can make the most number of short turns in 30 seconds. In-between all challenges Josh and Jens give some tips on how to increase your edge angle, ski better and lastly how to do quicker short turns.

Fun to see some skiing in some not-so-perfect, more realistic conditions 😄

[@StompItTutorials]

Do we usually ski in unrealistic conditions? /Jens

[@luemun]

@@StompItTutorials yes haha, at least compared to my ski resort

[@xzavier8184]

Realistic conditions??? That would be a massive, massive pow day in New England

[@PastorDaveSwaim]

I have watched a ton of these videos and love you guys. I agree with Luemun that this was the most helpful because you were navigating less than ideal conditions and other skiers. The tip about loosening boots was helpful, and getting benchmarks for ski IQ, were both valuable. So many videos seem aimed at selling us CARV, but this one is useful for those who actually have it. I’d love more videos like this.

[@MrZebanHai]

I think watching this video kind of shows how much better of a skier Josh is, but also how that can be a drawback for the individual challenges. His technique is so good that he doesn't allow himself to sacrifice form just to get in faster turns and such. Whereas Jens seems to be more of an easy going freeform skier who is used to the faster pace of doing tricks. You guys both did great though! This was a lot of fun to watch!

[@StompItTutorials]

Haha thanks for this one, great comment :) Sent to Josh, it might make his day :P /Jens

[@nissejacke4211]

I really like Josh's technique! It looks so stable, balanced and controlled. You are both great skiers though!

[@StompItTutorials]

I look at his technique / finess with envy. :P

[@ognyansarafov1660]

Quality +2000

[@issieplayzzz361]

This challenge was fun to watch, Jens and Josh are probably the best skiers out there. Good job guys!

[@StompItTutorials]

Thank you :) Probaly not near the best but pretty good allround skiers from Freestyle to Pow.

[@racerdaveracerdave]

Those were good challenges and nice use of Carv. Always enjoy your ability to teach and sense of humor Jens. And Josh's balance and quiet upper body is always impressive to watch.

[@grndpnder7]

I bought the Carv system after watching one of your videos and I can tell you it has improve my skiing from the first day I used it. I recently lost one of the batteries and the one time I went skiing without it while I waited for a replacement to be shipped to me I felt like I was wasting an opportunity to better myself. One of my favorites is to run through each skill for 3 runs then work the rest of the day with Ski IQ. Worth every penny of the system.

[@StompItTutorials]

Great to hear! I was sceptical of this tech when I first heard of it but after the first day with it I was convinced its great :)

[@CarvSki]

Thanks guys! 😊We hope to keep the tech moving forward every single winter for you all!

[@anthonyalpha4118]

Thanks for mentioning that going for the edge angle in powder isn't ideal, cause I was thinking WTF! Now if it was in the fresh 1st tracks I think you're good. As you know you can just do more in the powder in those early fresh than in the chop later. Not complaining, it's why I become a powder hunter in the trees! Great video love the friendly competition.

[@anthonyalpha4118]

You're both Terrific skiers of course! That was cool I like all the short turns the best. Some of my best days are a day or 2 after the storm, in the chop & crud. Less crowded and long as it didn't harden up great training conditions. I'm on the CARV preorder wait list only 900 spots left folks!

[@JoshuaHearnOfficial]

I love videos you produce, been learning a lot from them. Thanks!

[@jilinmeng3355]

oh, Jens, it's really fun. thanks for the video.

[@lalodalo]

josh que impresionante forma de esquiar en powder, se nota el nivel! desde chile! saludos!

[@lianyang8277]

this is one of the best ski demo I have ever seen. I am tired of those so called ski expert who only demo on groomed slops

[@patrickpurcell3671]

Thanks for the video I enjoyed the laid back competition and picked up some good tips at the same time. Josh I think that Jens has been getting in a little practice on those quick short turns lol. Always enjoy you great videos!

[@quaintlycrowish]

Great video as usual, keep it up! :D

[@StompItTutorials]

Thanks a ton!

[@tompem]

Terrific to see even great skiers struggle sometimes.

[@LeDore38]

This year my ski challenge has been waiting for the resorts to open, probably have to wait for next winter. I did some touring but I really miss bombing slopes back to back.

[@ubaidfarooq3819]

Watching your video regularly all the from Kashmir , we also got a great ski place here Known as Gulmarg kashmir , you can look over internet about this place . And thanks yours videos helped a lot during my ski training

[@umbraatrox]

Regarding your forward stance score. A good drill might be to press down the toes of your outside foot during turns, instead of just focusing on shin contact.

[@StompItTutorials]

That is what I was doing when opening the top of the boot a bit. Seemed to help.

[@ljshoreslokal]

Great video, thank you once again! You have improved my skiing with your videos. One challenge I'm having lately is skiing in varying types of surface conditions. One section will be soft and forgiving and in the same carve/turn will be slippery/icy. How to you suggest a person keeps their balance through this slip and hold type of texture? Thank you in advance.

[@timothysanderson2937]

🔥🔥🔥

[@weirdbeard1980]

Building edge angle in powder. Lol Interesting challenge. Creating that much edge angle seems to have almost instinctively put both of you over the inside ski at certain points. I can definitely understand why though. Building that much pressure over the outside ski in powder is definitely going to fill your jacket and goggles with snow lol. My 7 year old son was watching this with my and said "they were too much over their uphill ski". I said yeah but they didn't want that outside ski to submarine down into the snow and do an involuntary front flip.

[@StompItTutorials]

Yes it was silly and fun. Your son got a great sense of details! We indeed had to incline to not flip down the hill.

[@weirdbeard1980]

@@StompItTutorials you should see what edge angles you can get throwing some carved 3's, 5's, etc

[@bobcoggin4618]

Brill 👍🏻

[@_R.F_]

Why carv when u got 1m of pow? Even if there is a high avalanche factor, just go in the trees. You can carv whenever.

[@AndreiKucharavy]

Ok, now try the same thing in Adelboden, against an average local skier. I am genuinely curious about the results (never seen anyone anywhere else pull G-turns with as much angle as they do it there).

[@hogarthmcmallian7369]

Can you make a video on front 6's? I can't find any on them

[@KW-rb4vf]

What skis are you using there?

[@IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII77]

Do you have any tips To downrails

[@neumichel]

of all the Carv and Stomp vids this one seems like it was cooked up in marketing meeting. Perhaps Stomp It created it on their own or it was a collab. It seems obvious (not just from past videos where he is the expert) that Josh is the better skier. Isn't Jens newer at skiing. If so, I would say he is more likely to be able to ski in the style of the AI. He has less to break down. Josh does things well by instinct already. I get it...Carv and your ski camps can be fun.

[@huwlloyd4065]

Ahhh I miss skiing ☹️

[@StompItTutorials]

Sorry to hear that. I hope you get some awesome skiing soon or post pandemic.

[@AriesTheRam91]

Sir where can I go to gain control once the the air I feel once I hit lip off jump it throws my balance off

[@zextremist]

looks like you have to have a rather loose fitting boots so that they can accomodate those 3 mm thick inserts?

[@fugfydjirtvug]

What app was it?

[@relurelu5727]

Can you tell me the name of the application you are using ?

[@neveoharrison7032]

Where are you guys located? Where do you host your ski camps?

[@StompItTutorials]

In Laax, Switzerland ⛷️

[@yaboihenry1946]

You should make a steezy park edit

[@StompItTutorials]

Probably should attempt to get the steeze on :P

[@pr0bs88]

Imagine 180° angle

My friend died in the slopes yesterday😭😭

[@JamesMadelin]

Sorry to hear that. Horribly dangerous snowpack at the moment across the Alps.

[@rogerpalin5864]

Tbh, looked like you got lots of outside leg angle by using the inside leg as an outrigger.

[@deepbluewaterful]

He got less turns because he was faster in linear speed for the same distance

[@StompItTutorials]

It was measured in 30seconda not distance.

[@deepbluewaterful]

@@StompItTutorials ok than, seemed he was faster in turns but maybe because of the slower start indeed. Thx

[@JamesMadelin]

Wait but how can you guys be skiing in an open resort without everyone turning into dead COVID zombies?! Oh yes, because every damn resort in the Alps should be open so everyone can ski to say fit and healthy! If only France would stop destroying its economy (stopping tourism dead) and their people’s livelihoods (hospitality and resort jobs of all kinds gone). Rock on gents!
