God i wish snowboarding was allowed there... well if i go to alta anytime soon i guess i only get to ski. But i live near the mountain with the most annual snow yearly :) Mt. Baker
um yeah, anyone who knows about powder skiing knows alta's the place to go in the west. Don't let one bad week make your decision. Every mountain has a less-than-great week in the season.
great vid, I remember u, I used kick it in Alta. I used to hang with Compton in the day. Keep it goin' bro. I used to make some vids myself but now I'm a regular joe, so sad.Later bro! chris.
Yeah, they are incredible in powder, but no good on pack, regardless of how soft the pack is. They have a reverse camber shape than standard skis. They function more like water skis. So, if you had reverse camber skis, your form would adjust accordingly.
horrible technique over rotation will kill you in the powder, and you can see him struggle often, traversing, and stalling powder skiing is like skiing the bumps dive, and release dive and release, you dont lean back at all,if you do this is when you begin to rotate the upper body, and the skiing becomes laborious and inconsisten.
you have never skied im powder have you? if you dont lean at lest a little back your tips go under and you stop moving you need to keep some weight back and the tips out and for the most part that involves over exaderateing your movements
and if his form is so bad why dont you show us yours?
movements are essentially more exaggerated. weight is slightly further back to keep tips up, but other than that it's more or less the same. much greater flex/extension to initiate the turns.

I am so happy they don't allow snowboarding at Alta. Keeps all the knobs on one mountain. Fuck Alta and all the people who ski there.

Those are reverse camber skis, thats why his technique is different.
