Hi divas!
I’ve just seen a post that helped me finally articulate a couple of questions that have been swimming in my head all season, and I’m hoping some of you can help clarify. I will mention some of my assumptions about technique as well- please feel free to set them straight if needed.
I am assuming that in terms of edging, turns can happen in a spectrum that goes from a pure carved turn with highest edge angles on one end, to a schmeared turn with flat skis on the other end, and of course, everything in between.
When it comes to weight distribution on skis, what percentage of my weight should be on outside x inside skis as we go from carved turns to a flat ski turn? How does terrain and snow condition affect that?
I’m having some trouble intentionally putting more weight on the inside ski when turning to the right, and then I started thinking, well, how much should I be weighing that ski anyway relative to conditions?
Any help is appreciated.
