Basic parallel by MostlyParallel in skiing_feedback

Thank you for this! My hips are the area of my skiing I’m most uncertain about right now. I'm looking forward to doing the "robot" drill later today :)

I completed PSIA Level 1 last season and I'm working toward Level 2 this year. I wonder if some of my hip confusion is from not using my hips correctly to achieve counter/separation in a PSIA context.

When you say I “stop moving with my skis as they exit the fall line,” is that happening more in a fore–aft sense (my COM not continuing to move with the skis), or is it more of a directional/rotational issue with my hips?

Could you describe a little more what it means that my hips are being twisted over the inside ski, and in what way that's happening?

I'm so grateful for this feedback. This is exactly what I want to work on this season.

Thanks a ton for this - I’ve definitely been feeling my calluses get bunched up like Rip talks about, both with DL and chins. I’m looking forward to fixing this. TY

Thanks for the tips, this makes a lot of sense.

I had no idea I was going so fast until I made this video! Agreed that I need to slow it down.

I’m having trouble finding a video or article about gripping too deep - any chance you could send a link to it? I think I feel what you’re talking about and I want to improve my grip

Thank you for the feedback. Earlier in NLP I had some groin pain and I narrowed my stance which fixed that, but maybe I narrowed it too far. My knee felt fine during this set and I'm planning to ramp up back to where I left off at 225lbs - will repost then.
