@SonyMouse I'm glad you like the films my philosophy is always to keep it as simple as possible,I hope these ideas and techniques will help you when you get on the snow thanks again.

I adore your videos so far. I'm new to skiing, but have taken to it very easily because of my past experience with figure skating and X-Country Skiing. But this has put me at a disadvantage with terminology. Your videos really break down what people mean when they say "stacked" or... soften the knee, ect. Thank you so much for doing these.

So basically.. You do the pole-planting, JUST when you're switching the weight from one ski to the other? Absolutely great videos, keep it up !

I guess I don't understand what the pole planting is actually for. It "links the turns", but what do you mean exactly? Is it just a guide? I know you aren't leaning on the pole or anything.
Great!
Your set of videos with the short, simple but very useful explanations helps me so much!
Thank you for the good job.

Great vid and helps explain pole planting a bit more. Fantastic to have the slow motion footage helps me get it. I realise i've been doing it while my skis are still carving, instead of waiting till i've released my skis. I'm still a bit confused about when you should and shouldn't do it. when does pole planting really help? i'm intermediate. Feel reasonably comfortable on easy to medium reds.

@Mangoed22 Glad you like the films, a pole plant will be most useful on steeps bumps and powder but when learning the pole plant you may find it more awkward when skiing on the piste at higher speeds ( your timing has to be perfect). I personally always pole plant it really helps with linking the turns together.
