Leonie, Ella on Piste

Leonie
Good rhythm and timing (looks like you are skating – which is good – probably the effect of leg retraction)
Good management of rotation
Good dynamics

Ella
Good management of rotation
Good dynamics
Good use of narrow stance and use of the pronated subtalar joints (pivoting entry into turns)
Good use of pressured outside ski for the whole of the turn

Once technique is both functional and consistent then we have to ramp up the speed to somewhere just a bit the racer in the header photograph above. (Ask Tibo if the racer’s head is over his outside ski!!!)
