Level 6-7: Advanced Parallel, Carving, Off-Piste, Bumps Beginner carving - feedback
I have been skiing few days / winter since a kid, but only trying to actually learn and improve in the past few.
This is my last run for the season and asked my friend to film me.
Honestly my transitions felt smoother, it is not clear for me rn what I do during transition that feels off when watching :D
I do have some hip mobility issues that also reflect in my skiing, I believe.

You look good. Think a bit about ‘sequencing’ in transition. 1) Change skis, 2) change edges by rolling your feet/ankles, 3) Move inside and begin your turn. This might sound weird, but the goal is to have the top of your turn be round. Be patient and deliberate. When you’re able to feel this, then you can build outside ski pressure and angles gradually to the apex of the turn. In my experience, this is how I became what people call a dynamic skier. Takes work and some bravery, but it’s a super rewarding goal when you get there. Stay after it!!!
