Being an untrained SkiDiva, (untrained in technique any way)
I have watched this video and thought. Wow that looks like fun!
If this were groomed terrain, I'd expect the skier to be a bit more over top of his bindings, however, I think he manuvered the rough terrain quite will considering it was hidden by fresh powder.
I rate his technique on the smile on his face. Something tells me he was all Grins on this run:D :D :D :D

hey Snowhot this is what it all really comes down too,the fun factor!
I can imagine this is really tough terrain.I like the way Phil skiis this using his athleticism to create a fun and lively run for the camera.
I have chatted with Phil about his skiing and one thing I notice in his skiing is that he skis very flexed or folded up. It works well in most situations but it can lead to some extreme impact on the lower back.(Particularly in the bumps) so I might as Phil to try some exercises to get him a bit taller at the top of the turn and progressivley flex throughout the turn.
But I still like the way he skis this run!!

:o Sorry Lola, he's just such an easy pick to pick on!Lola said:Wow - Video of my Phil on the internet??? Who woulda thunk? He is a good skier, isn't he? And I must say, for a women's forum, Phil sure get a lot of 'honorable mentions' here!
But then, I bet you knew he was the Famous Flexon Phil, in the ski world;)
As for movement analysis.........what do you see wrong with his skiing in that video?
