WOW this is nearly as informative as the tutorials from the Beginner Pack (of which I own and HIGHLY recommend!). As an off-piste Freerider OG learning some beginner freestyle I found the switch pop and all the 180/360/540 instruction very helpful. I can't wait to get out there on my first twin-tipped skis sometime in November hopefully. Among the most in depth of the free videos available thanks Jens!
Watched every switch riding tutorial I could find on TH-cam and got to say this has to be the one that nails it all best. Very useful and professionally made with a lot of details that the other ones partially miss. My development as a switch skiier has skyrocketed with the info I have found scattered all over the place, but now it's available in one neat package from you guys and with some extras the other don't have. The carving bit for instance. I tried to find info on how to ride switch slalom around poles, and this info will certainly get me on the way there :) Problem is that if the pole is on my right side I have to look over the left shoulder to make the turn and thus going blind to the pole. If I look over the same shoulder all the time I will go blind every other pole. So I'm thinking of always carving the "opposite" way to solve this. Looking over my left shoulder when turning around a pole on my left side and vice versa. Always the "wrong" carving direction, but with some practice it might be possible... Thanks alot... I will recommend this as the "go-to" tutorial if someone wants to learn the ins and outs about switch skiing. Joined as a member to support your hard work. Keep it up!
Jens I love your videos and they’ve helped my skiing improve astronomically. Do you have a video tutorial for skiing switch (beginner tips) My technique really needs help. Thank you!!
If you ski switch I recommend getting comfortable in the switch position and the movement of the body, and THEN start to ski. It’ll save you quite a bit of potentially falling over.
Hey I’ve been trying to ski switch for about a decade now but still have some trouble. When your feet are staggered and you are carving, is it normal to feel like your weight is on a single foot? In this case does that mean when you do a switch carve take off that you are popping off one foot? Cheers, and keep up the great vids!
I have a question, if I face the skis forward to go downhill, does skiing switch make me go uphill? Hope you can get back to me soon. Would be great saving on lift cards! Maybe I have to buy skis with this reverse function?
some people feel more comfortable with them. They can help you keep your balance sometimes and if you want to pole plant while carving that’s another option but it’s very much a comfortability choice. you don’t have to use them if you feel more comfortable without them.
Please dont ski switch looking over both shoulders... not only does it look horrible but you have a huge blind spot between turns and you wont learn how to turn while preparing to spin off a jump if you can only turn looking over one shoulder
Why is it that skiers constantly refer to skiing backwards as 'switch'?? Switch is a shorthand for switch-stance and since you can't switch your stance on skis, well short of cutting off both your feet and then reattaching your right foot to your left leg and your left foot to your right leg, you can't ski 'switch'. If you're going to insist on stealing terms from skateboarding at least steal the correct terms, the one you're looking for here is 'fakie' which means backwards. Or better yet, have some creativity and invent your own term for skiing backwards rather than (incorrectly) stealing from other sports.

oh hey there

I’m terrible at switch tricks so thanks for this video
Pls post vids more often, you’re the best ski TH-camr out there
Finally a freestyle tutorial👍👍
For switch lip ons I find that it helps to come in wider and more angled on the lip. It makes getting the tips over the rail less sketchy for me
Love all these tutorial, and loving that you're using chapters to make it easier to repeat the different sections :-)
By far the best tutorial on how to ski switch on TH-cam. And Jens just has such a cool chill vibe

Thank you for always making such cool videos because they help me a lot GG

Your the best ski TH-camr

Did you get the opposite carve down on the slalom track? Were you able to get enough turn looking over the ”wrong” shoulder?
Very good idea for learning switch! I tried switch last season, but I started with plow turns
favorite channel on the app
Jens I love your videos and they’ve helped my skiing improve astronomically. Do you have a video tutorial for skiing switch (beginner tips) My technique really needs help. Thank you!!
Love your videos

I'm watching all these videos even though I'm not going to be able to ski this season thanks to covid
thanks again too this tutorial :)
This video helps a lot! My goal is to work on switch tricks this season.

"let's fricken send it" as he goes off of a 4 inch edge. This dude is hilarious and extremely helpful.
Nice edits, man!
Super cool tutorial
Great video man! I’ve got to start practicing
Do more rail trick tutorials! Like the most famous combos, k fed, brittany, comton...
Can you do a in depth video on skiing switch?

Sick vid
Is the Salomon qst 92 worth buying. And can you have fun with them in the park?
Wish I could own a pair of your skis
ur the best
Mega smoooooooooooth made me lol
How can i spin faster while doing a 180° or a 360°
Where is this place that you ride on?
Are those center mounted skis?
I think he mentioned before he mounts his bent chetlers at -1.5 or -2 cm from true center
Minus 1.5cm
do you really need poles? why you personally use them and can you do everything without them?
some people feel more comfortable with them. They can help you keep your balance sometimes and if you want to pole plant while carving that’s another option but it’s very much a comfortability choice. you don’t have to use them if you feel more comfortable without them.
@@tommylynch7887 Thanks I know that some people use them for balance but I wanted to know why the author use them 😉
@@MihailStacanov ahh ok
Are you from?
Is this in sweden? if so where in sweden? :D
Its in Switzerland but I am from Northern Sweden.
who else is left shoulder gang, but fr I need practice looking over my right shoulder now too
Do you think its smart just to ski switch all day to practice
First🤘🏻
First!!!!
Please dont ski switch looking over both shoulders... not only does it look horrible but you have a huge blind spot between turns and you wont learn how to turn while preparing to spin off a jump if you can only turn looking over one shoulder
Beginner typically needs to start like that. If you watch the rest of the video we go into looking over one shoulder.

Do i need twinnies to try this
Nah do it on GS skis, will be cool

I apologize profusely for my mistake
