    What is carving? Discuss.....

    The skis stay an equal distance apart,the tails follow the tips of the skis leaving two clean tracks in the snow.

    Counting the Divas.

    The coverage in the beginner area was really good.Temps should drop after this system blows thru so they will be able to resurface the bas area. T

    To carve or not to carve ....

    I am not so sure I agree with all of this video, if you tip you whole body into the hill without doing other things you will tip right over! The shoulders need to be level with the slope of the hill as the turn develops.I do like his fan progression.I don't like the up and down movement,that...

    I don't ever recall having to ski backwards in any exam that I took.Level 1 is a relativley easy exam to pass.(speaking for the East coast) Understanding the skiing concepts and doing low level demos should be good for a pass. T

    Where do you put your hands when you ski?

    Nice Snowhot! Looks like a fantastic day! I also have a hand that drags,it drives me crazy because I know that I am doing it.When I pick that cranky left hand up I feel that it is in a contrived postition.Maybe because I am just not used to it! When I ski without my poles my hands take a more...
