    Great concise explanation! Appreciate that you got straight to the point, I've been skiing 6 years and it's amazing how simple changes make a huge difference in turns.

    during carving, is the inside leg in the same position as when doing a parallel turn (ie at an angle leaning towards the top of the mountain)?
    tried to incorporate my knees into carving and i find that my inside leg automatically positions itself as if im skiing parallel

      hey! could you clarify your question a little, I am not quite sure what you are asking :)

    Sorry girl but in my racing experience you are talking about rail riding not carving. A carve is the flexing of the ski when it is set on edge and can involve a slight skiding aspect for control. Between the carving part of the turn is the unweighted transition. When running gates we search for the perfect carve but it often has to be sacrificed to conform to the terrain and dynamics of the course, In slalom a carve is a short burst. In giant slalom it is a longer extended carve with a more powerfull rebound. Show carving when running gates. I see your slalom skis in the background

      Depends on where you are in the world and whether you’re racing, instructing etc. That’s one problem in skiing is we don’t have common terminology. In my part of the world we call it carving just like she explained. Down under carving means something different and you have to throw “pure” in front of it to mean the same thing. To me, rail riding, sounds like park and ride with no dynamic input and not much ski flex.

      @@davidbeazer9799 Rail riding is just rolling from one edge to the other with no dynamic movement and unweighted transition as can be seen in the beginning of the video on the flatter runs. Real carving is what racers do

      @@morninboy agreed as that’s what I said, rail riding, or park and ride, has no dynamic movement. Yes, she did rail riding at first as that is the first step in learning to feel riding your edges.

      She's talking about free skiing carving, not running gates. Running gates has it's own set of techniques. Most of the gates on a men's FIS GS course are set tighter than the minimum 30M turn radius of an FIS compliant GS ski preventing the competitors from making a pure carved turn plus they need to stivot in order to scrub speed. Even in FIS slalom it's a rare turn made with perfect carving. I watched Marco Odermatt training just last week and the last way I would describe his turns would be "carving". Oh, and he won on Saturday at Palisades and again yesterday making for 12 straight WC GS victories. When free skiing carving I sometimes carry my turn to the point that I'm actually going uphill in an effort to reduce speed and allow a seamless connection to my next pure carved turn. On a race course all that matters is how to get the lowest time. Two different worlds.
