Hey Josh, great video. I was just curious when I ski powder later this year, how do I do the "Popshmear" test before I go?

[clint0n224]

10cm? lol

[jtomasik]

Doesn't get much better than that? C'mon, man. That's a dusting.

[gitbox87]

Its all about speed. The faster you go the more you will float in the pow. Go fast and take chances!

[proz3nt]

U see the schmeeeeeerrrr?? :)

[chilebear]

Shmeer,what a ridicilous way to explain something.Why do americans have to invent words

[darnpumpernikel]

@chilebear yeah.....he's canadian, not american. You can tell by how awesome he is :)

[bwjosh1]

Much prefer the Okanagan Champange thanks! :)

[jakelad10]

ye hes just trying to show u the technique of skiing in smooth powder

[0Gskier]

yeah but... that's not really powder...

[seahog32]

poor bastards who call something like this a powder skiing :))

[snowyphil65]

yea when you can lean against the front of your boots and not tumble it aint powder... id like to see him skiin in nipple deep colorado champagne

[Saitame]

@seahog32 Old school powder technique

[seahog32]

@Saitame i wasnt talking about his skiing technique, i was talking about the snow...skiing groomer with dusting of fresh snow is not what is called powder skiing in my book

[kjo14]

i get the pop.. but not the shmeer

[skiinshorty18]

i think he means the smooth but constant pushing action in the middle and end of the turn. know what i mean?

[kjo14]

oo ok.. yah kinda makes sense

[Anderzander]

@kjo14 I think he's describing compressing the legs into both skis to make the platform to pop out of. Pushing / bending into the skis at that part of the turn has the feeling of smearing the snow. ?
