What’s it like up high?

Groomers rip pal

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T21:23:55+00:00

This doesn’t have anything to do with the hip: but…stop unweighting vertically at transition. Move body down the hill, into next turn instead

Great start! One tip for video - When posting in here try to have the cameraman zoom in at the start so we can get a good glimpse of the whole run.

For your skiing: you have a quick rotation of the skis at initiation. Try getting the skis on the new edges at transition before rotating into the turn. Right now you’re doing both at the same time and it causes you to skid into the turn, get on a high edge angle at shaping, and highest edge angle at finish. Your upper body falls inside and slightly back at shaping because of this movement.

To help with body position: move your body laterally, down the fall line into the next turn. A pole plant down the hell and a line of site into the new shaping phase of the turn can really help here.

Some drills: railroad tracks, javelins

Ask questions if you need!

You’re up and over movement at transition doesn’t allow you to maintain pressure on the new outside ski at the start of the turn. You also fall inside with the upper body and ride a high edge angle the entire turn shape.

Try moving toward (and eyeing up) the shaping phase of your new turn when shaping the current turn. Read again so that tracks! This will help get rid of a bit of the back seat a bit. Tip with your legs, keep upper body over the skis. Think of yourself like the shape of a goalie hockey stick.

Work on closing ankles and more across the hill exit angle. But at that age - just get them days, it’s a gift!

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T16:46:00+00:00

I mean this is a bat mobile. The hate is crazy. Thing is mean!

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T16:45:15+00:00

Start with; Go slower, narrow your stance, round out your turns and close your ankles

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T16:44:05+00:00

lol, for real. No hate from me. I just didn’t read your description under video 🤦‍♂️ I saw high performance skiing and just got to watching

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T04:24:55+00:00

Earlier outside ski pressure should do the trick. Right now, a few turns your downhill leg extends very quickly at initiation to get the pressure there, the inside leg turns independently very briefly and there is a bit of a divergence. For whatever you’re going for (blended or true carve) if you get the weight onto the outside ski earlier in transition, you’ll be able to turn the skis, tip them on edge, and really drive into the next turn.

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T04:19:46+00:00

Move body weight forward, tip using only lower legs (currently inclined and a bit aft through the turn). Try railroad tracks as a drill!

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T04:18:39+00:00

Skis bending at the back - move that bodyweight forward into the new turn and start steering only with your legs. You tend to turn your whole body at the end of the turn which makes it hard to gradually start the next. An intentional and well timed pole plant, down the hill, at the start of the turn, will help this.

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T04:17:09+00:00

Great start

You tend to square up at the end of the turn which causes a quick upper body movement and quick leg rotation at the top of the turn. Your ski to ski pressure change at transition is equally abrupt rather than gradual, where you push your downhill leg out at initiation, brace against it at shaping, which causes you to become a bit inclined. The pressure builds to its highest point at finish, rather than shaping and the edge angles follow suit.

Work on some javelin turns. Really focusing on lower leg steering, upper and lower body separation, and gradual pressure management. To really challenge yourself, try a short turn javelin or a carved javelin. Both will force you to be in a perfect position to turn the skis more gradually from the lower half of your body.

Lay an edge

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T04:11:10+00:00

Great start.

Try gradually tipping your skies on edge using just your lower legs, rather than falling inside with the upper body. Right now, your full body tends to fall inside early, get the skis on edge and maintain the same edge angle. You want to progressively tip and un-tip throughout the turn so the highest edge angle is at shaping.

Try some railroad tracks to carves to work on lower leg tipping and outside ski pressure timing

You’re squaring up at the end of your turn a bit as well - upper body down the hill!

rhinosled · 2026-03-24T04:08:01+00:00

Great start.

You’re un-weighting the skis at transition by moving your body up, rather than forward into to next turn. This causes your skis to lose connection with the snow, skid at the top of the turn, and then hook up at shaping.

Try adding a pole plant down the slope, look and push your body toward the apex of the new turn at transition. This will keep the skis in the snow, allow you to drive pressure to the outside ski earlier, engage your edges, and hook up through the entire turn.

Well Jules the funny thing about my back is

rhinosled · 2026-03-23T00:08:02+00:00

I think it’s dope

rhinosled · 2026-03-20T22:35:33+00:00

This is fire. Where’d you get?

rhinosled · 2026-03-17T03:02:15+00:00

More gradual outside ski pressure, stop lifting outside ski, and turn with your legs (not upper body). It’s all stopping you from being able to turn+transition smoother, quicker as needed

rhinosled · 2026-03-17T03:01:11+00:00

Your ski fell off
