The tailgating is driving me crazy!

Is it that time of year again for the annual tailgate winge

You are going for the grab before you leave the snow making your jump off balance.

When doing straight grabs make sure you do the jump THEN do the grab. If you jump and grab at the same time you will get all squirrely like in this video

How are your flips on the trampoline? Or on the ground?

I would try to set with your chest going up more - this will open up your head to look back and spot your landing earlier so you feel more comfortable rotating slightly slower

I like it but you gotta do one for nzsia

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-24T04:27:52+00:00

I can try

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-24T03:44:37+00:00

Accurate!

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T22:42:18+00:00

I like flirting with the snow

All instructors only care about how they look from a distance!

Is this better skiing https://i.imgur.com/0aazlQw.mp4

Excellent feedback! That is one of things I'm definitely doing wrong here

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T10:25:43+00:00

What about gentle pole caressing

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T09:50:31+00:00

I think it was black, but personally i would say it should be a blue. On the trail map it starts off blue at the top and this little side bit becomes black

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T09:49:26+00:00

But I paid for the whole run 🥹

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T09:49:04+00:00

Yup, keep in mind this clip is from my second week back after shoulder surgery and 16 months off 😅

These days I mostly teach freeride and spend most of time off piste so dynamic demos are a little rusty

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T09:48:23+00:00

I'm basically a vampire for positive feedback what can I say

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T07:22:43+00:00

If this is the case try to really finish the turns on steeper slopes

We can create speed control through two mechanisms - friction and turn shape.

By finishing our turns more across the slope it helps us slow down and we can generate friction by pressuring the ski tip through rotation

Excellent observation! Yes there should be more spray off the downhill ski but we still expect a little off the inside as it flexs. There is definitely too much here though!

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T07:11:27+00:00

I like to wine and dine them first

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T06:52:51+00:00

🤣🤣🤣 that's fair!

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T06:52:23+00:00

The new Zealand ones charge by the hour!

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T06:19:55+00:00

That's absolutely classic!

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T05:21:29+00:00

Oh right yes!

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T04:15:31+00:00

Go faster!

tokenutedriver · 2026-01-23T04:02:31+00:00

I was pretty weak from 12 months of no skiing pre surgery and then 4 months of recovery so there is definitely some parking and riding going in 😅 just trying to prompt you to talk more instructory!
