Teaching hips for high performance skiing

Where and how to position the hips for high performance turns

[@trtmrt2203]

Debbie is all the passion when it comes to conveying knowledge to the great mass of the people. So special to watch her now, almost 40 years later, as I remember her winning the gold medal at the Winter Olympics in my city in 1984. Time flies so fast, I was a fourteen years old boy.

This is really interesting, because this guy's a level 3 PSIA instructor, and clearly already really good. It shows how subtle it can all be, and how hard it is to judge for yourself exactly what you're body is doing when you start getting to an advanced level.

[@ttruong225]

Unfortunately, many high level instructors don’t get to ski a ton of advanced terrain or practice their technique. Most of the level 3s I know are teaching children’s lesson because that’s what their mountain gets and parents are paying for lessons. Some of the best skiers I know are actually lower level instructors because they’re part timers who have the free time to ski different terrain outside of the beginner terrain. The exams and critiques instructors at this level get are about so much fine tuning they may not be able to practice as much throughout a normal season until it’s basically mostly over or if they’ve been going to extra training recently.

[@elhior23]

Is he though? I don't think he is.

[@ding0865]

@@ttruong225 that's actually true, I'm an instructor and i end up spending most of the season teaching plow turns :p and I rarely get to have a ski day to myself

[@Dr.Twisty]

Deb! What a great video. I had a real breakthrough today skiing because of it. Your emphasis of having the outside heel behind our hips in order to better leverage pressure to the tips during initiation of the turn was incredible advice!!! This morning I followed your advice and--BAM!!!!-I became a carving MACHINE! Just as you said, being able to leverage powerful pressure to the tips shortened the turn and gave me so much more control and precision. And, by the way, your demonstration of that in your kitchen with your baby wasn’t only incredibly effective, it was adorable too! Great frickin’ video!! I’m a big fan. I wish I could have a personal lesson from you. But I’m grateful you put these instructional videos out. Keep it up please!

[@DebArmstrongSkiStrong]

Love it!!!!

[@msg36093]

I cant get the right conditions to practice any of this in New England right now. Sunday it was solid ice, today a mush of slush. We get 8" on saturday, so I'm hoping for some piste next week to try this stuff.

This is quite the best instruction I have ever seen. You explain the subtle dynamics so brilliantly well. Those analogies are so clever.

[@RazvanMr11]

I must have watched this 5 times already. I still can't quite describe how incredibly insightful this was to me personally, something just clicked in place...Amazing content thanks so much for sharing all of this with the community.

[@DebArmstrongSkiStrong]

Glad it helped

[@marta05082000]

same for me. Ive been trying to figure this out for several seasons. I cant wait to put it into practice.

[@showze21]

deb. this is the best ski lesson! i practiced it today at breckenridge, the three elements that you demonstrated: driving the knee, strong outside leg, and outside heal behind the hips. somehow it all clicked, and the technical synergy was amazing, probably the best carving that ive done. (although, thats not saying much.) your lesson was an epiphany. thanks!

[@jandmwheeler]

Deb, your content this year is so spot on! Taking cues to help me progress my skiing and to help follow along with my U8 son’s coach and understand what he’s saying and how to help my son apply. Great stuff, thanks so much!!!

[@jasonr8464]

Hope you get to make more videos with Scott! He's a great communicator, which makes it easier to learn things both from him being so good at describing what he is experiencing, and from your instruction. Great video.

[@DebArmstrongSkiStrong]

Yes!!

[@mmcollins3]

Great video and love how you keep it real with Nilo! Really appreciate the focus on good movements starting at the feet. That's been my jam for years and having someone at your level putting a spotlight on it is great affirmation.

[@karlk9316]

This was great! Deb thank you for a wonderful set of directly related instructions for driving the outside hip and inside knee forward. Seeing your highly aware, advanced student ski in response to your coaching communicates beautifully to the viewer. Thanks!

The more I see of Deb the more I realise she is a genius. Never misses a trick. A really wonderful human. ❤ Seriously considering booking up a visit with some lessons to iron out a few faults.

[@richardwarren449]

Thanks for this validation of where my skiing has gone. I am continuing to learn even in my late 70s, and it is such a thrill to explore the tip of the ski coupled with driving the inside knee. Thank you.

[@johncaldwell895]

Kudos. That is an awesome and totally relatable video. The essence of advanced skiing on film. Outside leg binding behind the hip, lengthen laterally and drive the inside knee. There it is! Now I’ve just got to do it. Thanks Deb

[@user-xf1tv9iw4l]

Deb, you are awesome. You exactly hit the nail on the subtle difference that I wanted to learn on this video.

[@rafaelalbertotorres8070]

Excellent tutoring! Subtle changes that make such a big difference. Thank you for making it so clear.

[@YumYumBus]

This is one of the most realistic and detailed instruction video for intermediate skier. simply amazing.

[@CertTrainingSteamboat]

This!! Very reminiscent of our most recent clinic and the conversations following that on how the alignment and flexion of the hips was limiting my ability to manage pressure both vertically and along the length of the ski! Thanks Deb!

[@nickv3085]

i really benefited from whenever you have focused on driving that inside knee in previous videos (not sure which one). It’s a powerful concept. I think by purely skiing from the feet/ankles up, driving the inside knee as edge angle increases, and maintaining separation, you can have a very solid platform on which to keep pushing your limits of edge angle. It isn’t overly complicated, but all the movements sort of feel and work together, and the deeper you go into edge angle the more support/technique you need, so there’s sort of a natural progression. Thanks so much again for these videos deb. Great things to think about out on the hill.

[@highc6866]

Deb’s videos are my go-to before and on my skiing trips. They get me excited to go practice. In about an hour. Woohoo!

[@stevebarone6311]

This video is fantastic. Love the ski conversation you are having. More Deb and Scott videos!

[@alanbrown5802]

Hey Deb! I watched this video when you first released it but wasn't really getting it. So, I forgot about this video and went skiing some weeks later. I discovered that by changing the way I engaged my hips my carve improved. Since then, I've been watching this video and I believe I get it now, even if I'm not quite doing it yet. All your videos are helpful and I'm sure all your subscribers agree! Thank you!

[@disturbunce2335]

love the format and the content, having a good skiier who can articulate what he is or is not doing really makes is useful. The pushing the car bit is GOLD! and of course the inside knee too!! Thank you, I am leaning so much from you.

[@scott.e.wiseman]

I really appreciate your comment! Deb really has a knack for getting me to reflect on and describe what’s happening in my own skiing! I feel so lucky.

[@weevilsnitz]

Great video as always. I think all these buzz-phrases like "dropping the hip", counter-rotating, etc. all came from a lack of information dissemination from the World Cup level athletes and coaches down to the lower age and lower level coaches so we, as he said, looked to the magazine covers and watched videos and tried to mimic those movements without understanding of the entire process. But I think that barrier is slowly being broken by people like you! Modern technique truly is somewhat modern since the inception of shaped skis and the form has continually adapted and been refined over the last couple decades, and I think your videos are truly breaking down misconceptions regarding which technique to apply at what time and why and for how long and what works and what doesn't and blah blah blah.

[@guidouytterhaegen]

Skitechniq has evolved in time,in addition to the new skis,when i was really young for example we skied with the hard straight ski in narrow stance’s or with a a -frame leg,look at the fotos off the champions in that time all a frames,now the a frame is one off the things NOT to do ….also there is even difference in country s for example there was a time that the france en austria skischools teach different techniques…. They both found theyr s off the course the best…..

[@danlee944]

OMG! I just watched an older video with you (Deb) and Tom Gelle where you talked about "driving the hip" and "powering the hip" and I was trying to figure out what it meant and right on cue, a video which goes into detail about it appears in my feed. So awesome!. Thanks so much for the detailed progression going over hip position in the initiation-to-apex portion of the turn. I can't wait to get back on the slopes to try this out.

[@hbgap3596]

I tried this today and it works. Got good leverage on the ski tips and better control. Thanks!

[@francescostevanoni3972]

[@haroldbrosowsky6506]

New to the channel, and the content is amazing. Deb breaks down her instruction into concise, easily understood, and actionable lessons. Thank You!

[@DebArmstrongSkiStrong]

Welcome

[@4plum]

I love when you gave Scott side by side live coaching. I wish more instructors would do this.

[@wallstreetoneil]

This is a great video because it shows why ski racers look different than expert casual skiers. You can become an expert instructor & carver - but that doesn't mean your technique was optimized to extract 100% of the available power. Gravity is a powerful force & for everyone that isn't meassured against the clock, it provides more than enough energy to develop an expert looking style - racers find postions that look like hockey players to generate additional power.

[@faceinthecrowd5810]

Great content and delivery! As a retired ski instructor that takes winters off to free ski now I miss the coaching that us PSIA instructors got. My training now happens on KZbin then I try to translate that information to my next day out. What is missing is the feedback from trained eyes and I am left with relying on my own impressions of how I’m skiing. All in all I know that watching your videos is putting my brain in the right place, my hips?, well my turns feel great most turns and I’m having a great season so that is all good. Without solid coaching a skier can only advance so far, investing in ski lessons can head off a bucket full of bad habits and get a skier on the right path. Any skier with the good fortune to take some laps with you Deb will certainly move their skiing forward.

[@Premierskis]

Fantastic video. Every advanced and expert skier can learn from watching this!

[@debbielombard5132]

Great video! Thanks for incorporating the dry land examples so I can practice the muscle memory feeling before heading to the hill. Added bonus a Nilo cameo.

[@eugengliga8798]

A big thank you right from Romania :) It really is a game changer. I watched the video a day before going on the slope and focused on each run to follow these tips. My mistake was the squat position. I feel I just made a huge technical leap forward. I feel like driving the knee somehow naturally moves the outside ankle behing the hip. In any case that knee drive gives such more stability and confidence and only now I fell like I’m carving because both skis are on edge. Thank you very much and enjoy the rest of the season! It’s a pleasure watching your videos.

[@DebArmstrongSkiStrong]

Great!!!!

[@laowai2000]

Awesome, will be taking this knowledge to the mountain next week. You could see clear progression in that last run with those tighter turns.

[@jcinnes]

Wow! His skiing at the end is completely different.... and so much better. I love your videos Deb!

[@julierosenberg5020]

What an excellent BREAKDOWN of the progression of the turn! I love how Deb emphasizes the key points and shows her excitement when the pupil “gets it”!

[@Gottenhimfella]

Yeah. When he drove that inside knee forward, all of a sudden his turns looked just spot on. Like a heat seeking missile locking onto a target.

[@bobfrizzell1059]

Another terrific video Deb. I do a bit of Masters coaching and this video addresses two of the common mistakes I see: parking the hip inside and skiing squauty. I love the idea of the heel of the outside leg behind the hip and how driving the inside knee is such a key move. And, the baby is beautiful.

[@johnkern6782]

I chased Deb down Taos many years ago and thought I could catch her, hah then with teaching from Jean and Taos ski school and a day with Deb ,,, now I rip and carve! She rocks!

[@thomasmedeiros5722]

This video is a great example that Deb is truly coach that the pros go to for coaching. As the 23-24 season is approaching I am going back over Deb’s training videos for skills to work on when the lifts open. Skiers should notice that Scott and Deb are skiing on very low angle terrain similar to what’s available in the early season. Looking forward to more great coaching videos 🙏🙏⛷⛷

[@seatonsoundinc]

Deb, thank you so much for this video and with the context of someone who already carves smooth turns. This is one of those habits I have to break out of when I'm rusty or tired, and I've tried to get family and especially my dad at 75, to make a regular action. I grew up taking lessons on 5 day family trips each year in the Rockies. I could handle all different shapes of turns and work my way through most terrain, but when I finally skied on my own in college befriending and following a few strong locals I quickly found just how much more stable they were skiing through rough or irregular conditions. In trying to keep up and figure out what they were doing I modeled what I could, kept practicing and experimenting, and some searching and reading to finally get more certain of what actions produced that significant gain in stability and confidence through irregular conditions. It can be hard to convey to someone who already feels very comfortable in easier or more consistent conditions. I've already forwarded this to a few. 👍👍

[@Gottenhimfella]

I hear you. For the first thirty years of my skiing, I generally played to my strengths, then I took a while off from skiing. Now that I'm back with a vengeance (partly because my body is less worn out from too much skiing!) I am working on the things I don't do easily or well. It's so much more satisfying! Also, the things I do well do not need further work....

[@saramorgan5937]

It's funny what grabbed my attention was the Taos sign on his element and then I saw the Taos jacket. I was fortunate enough to have my first real ski season at Taos mountain in 2021 and it was the best mountain. Wish I could have you as my ski instructor deb. I will definitely be watching these videos

[@davidbeazer9799]

Awesome Deb. This forward movement is something I am working on. Feels so solid when getting to the new outside ski in transition and getting this Ski Strong forward position. I was able to hold a carve on steeper terrain than I had been able to before. Wondered if I was on the right track. The results say yes. This is video is a 2nd witness! More more more Deb. Thanks!!!!

[@KenpoOjoko]

Great video! The right timing of release after pressure build-up is something that I am looking for.

[@mmckimson]

Awesome!! I think this is one of your best videos. I was working with a Level 3 candidate on this very thing this last weekend!

[@OutdoorExperience.101]

Great video as always! I think my outside heel is a little bit more behind my hip (not just the heel binding) and my outside ski is a platform to push thru the turn in the same time with a up an forward movement of the hip (atacking the tip of the ski). The analogy with the sprint position is perfect. Thanks Deb! 🙂

[@dlacorte566]

Really helpful and insightful video. As a human movement scientist this analysis speaks volumes to me. Thank you!

[@kuanjuliu]

Wow, I told myself before my big ski trip this week to turn off YT and only focus on the few things I had thought through, only to find myself not standing on that outside leg as powerfully as I had hoped. This video was what I was missing. Always next season. So grateful for the on-point advice!

[@kuanjuliu]

I just tried this last night. It worked. 100% confidence in turn initiation, progressive increase in pressure to and from the apex, and such strength and ease. NO COUNTER - it’s just not possible with this move. Thank you so much!

Thanks! Always love your video and recommend to all my ski dad friends…my wife and spent some time watching this with our u16 daughter tonight and used your example from the kitchen scene to demonstrate the power differences I.

[@CarlosFromPhilly]

The nuance here is amazing. So much to glean from this.

[@showze21]

good turns! your instruction, that power in the turn comes when the heal piece of the outside ski is behind the hip of the outside leg while the inside knee is driving is very helpful. a good technical ski and boot combo helps a person carve. i have a quick 68 mm waisted head race carver, combined with a head race boot, that allows ankle flexion. they give a quickness thru the transition and a rebound at the apex. a quick balanced transition at the fall line, and solid rebound at the apex are two critical points in the turn.

[@chenrayray6263]

So many big things and subtle things here. I often struggle watching skiing videos, when the most “dramatic” it looks like their butts are in the backseat.

[@Chicken_nuggets13]

Sometimes it takes me time to catch up to speed with your narrating the turn, but love it - especially this video. Turns happen quickly in Time and Space - but you are able to break the elements up in isolation in order to explain what is going on. Thank you!

I teach myself for years after my college racing days and was doing most of what you teach by instinct because it works. I have since started to stand more centered drive my inside knee more conscientiously and boy does it make a difference. I dig trenches now !!! Still squat a bit too much sometimes….a constant battle with this one.😂

[@jimbobaggins1829]

Video request: could you do a video on the step-by-step process for carving? I am trying to transition from skidding to carving. I find lots of great vids (like this one!) on drills, advice, etc. on one part or another of carving. But when I get on the slopes to practice, I'll start skiing and find myself asking "what's the next action?". I would love to be able to answer that question for myself. Lots of doubt if I'm doing the right thing right now, I find it hard to piece together a sequence of events in carving from videos, articles, etc. Thanks in advance. Btw, I love your videos and your energy. You're (almost literally) like Prometheus, bringing the good stuff down from the Olympians to us mere mortals! Thanks for showing us the secret sauce

[@zzdoodzz]

I restarted skiing about 5 years ago and fell back into turning how we used to in the days before shaped skis, skid turning. I finally got a one on one lesson a few weeks ago with the goal of learning to be smoother and hopefully also learn how to carve turn. I am getting better at carving now and found it to be so much smoother and takes less energy. I am still practicing and watching these videos helps a lot. The videos by Carv are excellent and worth a check out. If it's in your means, I highly recommend getting a lesson, for me it really started to click after getting some direct coaching.

[@IStMl]

Honestly I'd take one lesson with an instructor to get the jig and then use videos or Carv to fix specific aspects

[@jimbobaggins1829]

@@IStMl Yep I've taken lessons and I have Carv. I can get down a mountain ok. My issue is that I couldn't tell you, step by step, how I should be carving. For example, here's my best guess that I've pieced together. Assuming I'm finishing up a turn: 1) Transfer weight, from downhill to uphill ski. (Carv app says put uphill foot down from heel to toe, as if pressing accelerator? Haven't seen that mentioned anywhere else.) 2) Shift weight forward. (By flexing ankles? Not sure.) 3) Use ankles/feet to tilt skis (along their long axis) towards the downhill. 4) "Pull up" downhill leg to initiate topple. 5) Feel pinch in the hip, shift weight towards heel during turn (by releasing ankles? Again, not sure.) 6) Repeat for other side at the end of the turn. No idea if this is a correct sequence of events. Instructor was not that helpful either tbh. I'd love to get a step-by-step, even if it's just for the simplest case. Groomed, flat run with reasonable pitch. I think I could figure it out from there!

[@TheChrisBreyShow]

5:30-34 is what I’ve been focusing on, and what absolutely let’s me Retain maximum energy upon exit, and take that Turbo power into the next turn even Hotter! The drive motion with the outside fist on the release is the finish. It’s very subtle, and it’s definitely ground up. Exactly like a perfect punch! This might not be correct but I loosen my boots up so I can get more ankle flexion and really let that outside leg get long and behind my hips as far as possible. Spring theory 😊 Thank you for everything DA🤙

[@JohnnieKav]

Love it this is great content, you always do such a great job of relating body positions.

[@rickcrispell1405]

You can't manipulate G forces (other than slowing down or speeding up) but you can manipulate your body. Thank you so much Deb for your expert analysis of high level skiing. I learned to love the unweighting at he back 3/4 of the apex. For that spilt second feeling of releasing your outside ski to transfer to the other ski in the next direction. You can manipulate your skis to a neutral angle to make your skis flat while you move your mass forward to engage the up hill ski to the down hill ski. It's not natural just like a roller coaster.

[@SnowboardWithAndrew]

Great video! Love the biomechanics explanation of the movements. I see so much analogy with Sprint mechanics to be more powerful to drive the edges while maintaining the ideal posture. Definitely going to experiment more in my ski turns. Thanks Deb!

To me the anology shouting in my head is with speed skating or roller blading.

Same as with me leaning my upper body too far over. When teaching I always look out to not do that but when free skiing or pushing hard I always come back to that. Since I'm working towards doing the highest level one day it's a must for me to get rid of those habits even if I ski pretty good other than these small details
