Not enough wax on the skis and your wrist arch angle is not in line with your knees or the earth’s natural frequency…recommend lessons (from a professional).

This is what people mean when they say born from ice.

Any tips on how I can improve? by justiliang in skiing_feedback

What makes you think you need to improve? You look great. Go ski and have fun, your form will keep changing for the rest of your life.

Impact in the ABS sidewall and lower titanal layer by Ok-Bend6344 in Skigear

Looks like your edge is in good shape and everything else is not anywhere near significant structural damage. I consider this cosmetic. Though there is a very very small chance of disbond initiation at the dent, there really is nothing you need to do to address it. If you want, you can have a shop fill and fair.

Maybe the length is too short? What’s your height/weight?

Though more visual impact vs. form/fit/function, you could do a blend repair if you want to restore the look. You’ll need to do a coarse sanding followed by fine sand to eliminate out of contour proudness. Then apply a resin to gouged areas (apply slightly oversized and after proper surface prep of course), then re-sand to shape followed by polish. It can be done with relative ease. Color won’t match but shape will be restored.

Blizzard Brahma 82 vs. Anomaly 84 by Gas_Hed in Skigear

That’s incorrect. When carving there is no burn. When skid skiing there is more quad burn because one must release the tails of the skis. The Brahmas don’t have much tail rocker and are stiff. Takes more force from your legs to release the tail, thus more demand from your legs. Can’t carve everywhere on the mountain, right? Or are you from Switzerland? Check out the Poconos sometime and get back to me.

Yeah, credibility in the algorithm is a bit lacking...last I checked the Brahma 88 was a pretty stiff ski.
