  • The advice in this video is out of date. Poor advice.

  • @PaKdlunch excuse me? i dont see you in the PSIA Alpine team... also, this is not out of date its a drill to execute a feeling... not a tactical move by any means

  • Poor form, this is just embedding the stem christie (or 2 big toe edges at the same time into skiing) into skiing. My goal as a skiier is to completely remove the stem from my skiing except for in the lift line. In my opinion the best transition is to flex both legs in the same direction and towards the tips of the skis. this will un weight th uphill edges and allowing you to transition onto the new edges, going into a high c carve and better your skiing

  • @jackgallau i can't see this video very well, but you can step to the uphill or new outside ski with out putting pressure on the big toe, before you start flexing in any direction you need to balance over the new outside ski or your weight will be completely on you inside ski, i think this is the point of this drill but with a poor name for the video

  • The man's a member of the PSIA alpine ski team for a reason people.

  • the point is not the "stem" it is early weight transfer to the outside ski. The earlier in the turn you balance on the outside ski, the better you can control pressure and shape a turn

  • Outdated and should not be followed. In order to step to the outside (stem) I would have to continue with my weight on my inside edge of my old outside ski. Not what we should do since this will put my center of mass to far to the inside and only in the finish phase of the turn will I have my weight directed to the outside ski. Try transferring the weight to the little toe edge of the new outside ski and then tip the skis with pressure on the boot cuff.

  • everyone makes those comments about separation on these videos, but there becoems a point where separation is just awkward especially when he's going slower

  • @tbonestillz hhhhh

  • I literally saw very little separation between the upper and lower body. The upper body should be quite and faced down hill while the legs move.

  • Terrible teaching. "I want you to..." All the worst teachers and coaches tell their students what they *want* them to do. And the skills being taught are extremely outdated. This will only lead to intermediate level skiing, no more.

  • You've got to be kidding me! This is the best that "Go With A Pro" can come up with? I thought that I was in a time machine and got transported back to the early 1960's!!

  • Somehow I think if God had meant for man to zoom down a hill on one or two tongue depressors guided by two tooth picks our arms and legs would be designed differently. This could be the 1001 way for the show a 1000 ways to die after a few sessions of broken bones and asundry other injuries. Remember Sonny!

  • God gave us the capability to use tools and think by ourselves... he also gave us the ability to have fun... SPEED is FUN... as long as your smart and controlled you wont kill yourself... or even injure yourself... i skied every weekend of the season last year and the only injury i had was a dislocated shoulder ( from being stupid)... anyway my point is god gave us the ability to do this... not only that but it is incredibly peaceful and a good way to see what he created
