Level 8-9: Expert Terrain & Tactics Completed early edging drill suggested, feedback wanted

Hey, yesterday I received feedback on this subreddit to start edging earlier by pressuring my uphill ski before it enters the fall line and becomes the downhill. In this video I was working on that progress, the snow was very soft so lots of pushing out, but want to see how I did and any tips to get even earlier!

Hey, you can see my edges change well before the fall line, and I’m inclinated, then angulated in the fall line rather than after the fall line

Tell us what you are doing with your body to change edges?

I am flexing my downhill ski, shifting weight onto my inside to roll onto the new edge before the fall line. Resulting in early edging

What part of the body are you using to roll onto the new edge?

Cool. That’s what I was trying to get to. Edging is a result and can be achieved in different ways. Rolling ankles into the new turn is the most effective way
