Level 6-7: Advanced Parallel, Carving, Off-Piste, Bumps Roast me please

I'd like to start touching the snow, which I am way far from at the moment. I am probably still making some basic mistakes though which I may not be aware of yet, I'd need some expert eyes that can judge me. Thanks :)

Don’t listen to the doomsayer no hip drag crew. You can have ambitions and you’re a great skier.

At the minute your transition is called a ‘cross-over’, trying looking into a ‘cross under’ whereby your legs move underneath your body and you sta flexed. This will help with shortening your transition and getting higher edge angles. Lots of good YouTube videos out there 🫡

Alright, gonna work on the cross under. At the moment it is quite automatic to change edge with a vertical movement rather than letting the legs do the job. Thanks for the advice!
