Want to ski with more control? Perfect your outside ski pressure.

[@GatorGirl1]

This is the best video I have watched that highlights the outside ski pressure. You actually show us how to get it instead of just telling us to put pressure on it.

[@CarvSki]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@dasalpengluhen1747]

The drill with the pole dragging on the snow along the turn is great and moreover it is perfect to stop two mistakes in the transition: new inner shoulder falls down and/or the upper body twists into the turn 👍👍👍

[@conViction0000]

Great video! Today I was hitting the slope after extensive break. My outside ski feeling was not perfect, I could not achieve desired angles nor speed control. My first thought was to bring it to basics aka drills. First I was doing javelin and phantom javelin but the real deal breaker was my favourite drill - touching the outside boot with the outside hand, while inside hand is kept above the shoulder. ❤ This drill really helps me to create both good angulation and to develop trust in my outside leg. If you are really onto your outside leg you can freerly drive the inside leg towards the turn and then magic happens. 😉

[@CarvSki]

great advice, thanks for sharing!

[@skieru6529]

Great video Kevin! Really nice natural on cam speaking mannerism and a great progression!

[@jimy4707]

It helps me a lot guided to coaching ski for kids. Thank you so much.

[@c6moneypit8]

I love how you are implementing the outside ski pole drag at the apex. I saw a couple variations on this and I think this one will help me the most with my outside ski pressure! Can’t wait to practice this!!! Thank you!!!

[@CarvSki]

You are most welcome, thanks for checking out the video!

[@wenxu7747]

I actually understood! Cannot wait to try it! Thank you!

[@MyMusicChannel88]

This is so so good! Thanks Kevin!

[@CarvSki]

We're so glad you enjoyed it!

[@donaldfiesta8666]

Nice Kevin. One way I like to think of it is to drop my outside shoulder. Which I tell myself often

[@gairnmclennan5876]

Great video, the pole drag i found got me to kink or pinch my hip making 70-80 on Carv for the outside ski pressure where i was about 55 before the drill. But i will say this will be the later part of the turn in my case. I guess i should be aming to get that ski pressure high at mid turn when the skis are pointing down the fall line.

[@themountainknights]

Wonderful vieo tutorial. As a new skieer it was very useful 👍

[@CarvSki]

we're so glad it helped you :)

[@tenzinbodh9381]

Great!! Very informative video🏂👍🏻

[@gardnercrane9185]

Dear Carv, I am a member. Why are all these training videos not linked in the app? It'd be nice to be able to watch videos on a specific metric on the chair/gondola without having to find them on youtube.

[@CarvSki]

What's the best tip or drill you've used to help get over the outside ski? 👇

[@gairnmclennan5876]

Richard Amackers Video on the carve app and you tube taught me to turn TO the fall line setting up and then angulate and feel the G force as you swoop with your hip close to the snow into the end of turn and transition. It made me see that like a play ground swing, to have the G force it will increase only if you lean back after the midpoint. Timing!

[@jameswhite1692]

Excellent presentation ⛷️

[@vanessap8354]

Thank you.

[@josephjordan3857]

Thanks Kevin! I love the progression, especially the plyometric hops to start with. I’m going to integrate this into my gym routine as well. Like you, I have a strong and weak side. Any suggestions on how to balance this?

[@MrDogonjon]

Always stop to your weak side.

[@kevinmurphy8644]

Would you say please that you predominantly ski on one leg/foot

[@ardenpowers7730]

Great drills ! Look out for the slight convergence in some of your turns . . . just saying :)

[@swingman50]

Great vid. I actually concentrated on increasing my outside ski pressure this year, especially skiing on ungroomed or semi-groomed blue runs and it made a huge difference! It helped tremendously with control and prevented ski separation for me. I found it important to make sure I was forward pushing my shin against the front of the boot on that downhill ski.Any other pointers through this type of terrain?

[@CarvSki]

a really simple one to think about is just lifting the inside ski, surprisingly hard to do as an intermediate or even an advanced skier sometimes!

[@swingman50]

@@CarvSki wow! So basically taking all the pressure off the inside ski! On non groomers.

[@July-A7]

On a non groomed terrain it's reverse, your body weight is back not forward. If you are forward, your skis will bury in the snow and you'll somersault. You'll have to judge how much to hold back, of course. Always lift you inside ski and you'll swerve easier.

[@CarolineCassels]

Serious question - are you missing your MCL on your right leg? Your right leg flexes laterally quite differently.

[@oakland439]

does anyone else's outside pressure vary a ton between your left and right turns? even when I'm doing storks I'm getting like 30-50 percent on my left turn... and I'm right legged!

[@danielyeroshalmi12]

Thank you for sharing this perfectly detailed video.I am wondering how I can get these sensors ?! Do they come with the boots or I can buy them separately ?! Thanks again

[@MrMonnster]

ok outside ski pressure, but that mean pressure more on edge? i dont understand it right

[@ttruong225]

What kind of skis are those?

[@MrStanleysiu125]

Have a question. CARV seems to suggest a 100% (or close to 100%) outside ski pressure a best carving. Is that true or just leading the skiers to have more outside ski pressure? I noticed on the leader board of CARV the top IQ skiers all have very little or 0 pressure on the inside ski around apex. Is that what all carver aim to achieve? Thanks

[@CarvSki]

Good question- Carv doesn't reward 100% outside pressure, the scoring as part of Ski:IQ actually flattens out a bit as you get up past 60% - that's because the terrain changes and turn intention can differ. On perfectly groomed snow you can get very high outside pressure at high angulation.

[@billgraham4912]

i'm upper intermediate and just starting to scratch advanced. Is Carv ideal to up my game and to get a good understanding of what needs to be done to advance to the next level ? especially as it relates to carving. Thanks!

[@LeoInvestJournal]

hello, I want to know if it can be used in a indoor skiing?

[@CarvSki]

Hi Leo, yes Carv can be used indoors. It has a feature where it splits your run into segments. It needs 6 turns to generate a Ski:IQ (10 for the leaderboard). Depending on the length the of slope that should be fine! The real time training modes (turn by turn carving training) will work, but you'll need to lap a run twice to level up in general. Hope that helps

[@martijntjeeh]

Does Carv work with special insoles? Like i have an insert in my left boot but not in my right one, and it gives me odd reads on pressure

[@krissp8712]

I think it goes under the liner, so between the plastic shell and the insulated inner one. You might need to pull the liner out (it'll look like a separate foam shoe).

[@martijntjeeh]

@@krissp8712thanks, yeah I figured it out!

[@jhdrocks]

Where was this filmed?

[@CarvSki]

This was Aspen, CO :)

[@maryhaney3386]

I’m skiing Buttermilk on Monday, we’ll talking lessons again.

[@Huttify]

@3:32 You are not flexing the ankle, you are closing the hip. Your ankle is hold at its "home base" by your boot. I guess you feel a increased contact between your shin and tounge of your boot, but moving your center of mass forward isn't done by flexing your ankle.

[@MrDogonjon]

You need a foundation to stack every thing on. With no ankle flexion the system give no feedback. People don't know about ankle flesion in skiing they all sit back. unable to make precise weight transfer movements.

[@CarvSki]

this is a great point. Fine control of foot pressure is an extremely hard skill to master - riding the cuff of boot makes it even harder!

[@vatansever..]

Please subtitle Turkish language please

[@sergegrattu5171]

Vidéo pas mal, juste peut-être devrait-il plus parler du jeu vertical et de ce qu’il se passe dans la phase de transition d’un pied à l’autre . Au moins pour une fois un skieur qui parle de dissociation.

[@waynewilliams839]

93% of skiers never learn to carve!! They ski they're whole life skid turning. I feel sorry for them

[@highway79]

Product is made by greedy people. i buy subscription and within this sub there is only 6 days to learn? Why would you limit this - it damn cost you nothing if I ski 10 days or 5 as this goes back to application which is ready to go product. Hate greedy people… not in my interest and its not about money on my side

[@patricknedz]

It is too expensive Just going to work on these drills myself and take some lessons to get where I want to be. Several people learn to ski without this.
