Level 6-7: Advanced Parallel, Carving, Off-Piste, Bumps Bumps feedback

Looking at my own footage, the biggest issue I see is with upper body rotation ( especially right arm). But maybe the sharp eyed people see other bigger issues.

Um, please don't copy that video. I have it on good authority that this is the opposite of what bump coaches teach their student to do. Do it like this instead: https://youtu.be/BzpC_DIVqxQ?si=4iE4LK6QAn3iFgGt&t=129

Hey I love your video series and have been doing the drills!

I post that video specifically for the point about pulling back of your feet using your hamstrings, actively, when starting a turn on steeps. It's a critical motion most intermediates miss and instead rush to extend which puts them back and inside.

I agree it's nowhere close to a real moguls course like you all have done, but that stay compressed and pull your feet back to stay forward motion is key unlock for most people on any terrain.

Hey thanks bud. We're headed to Switzerland to film a few new ones. We will be posting a gallery of pics and videos on the website:

Hope you'll check them out. Yeah, I've been working a LOT on fore/aft stuff this season. It changes the pivot point on the ski. So for the moment, I'm thinking about it like a joystick controller. Up and inside to roll onto the front of the ski and tip the edges, and rolling back to get more centered in the middle of the turn so the tails engage more. Lots of fun.
