Jack, Zsazsa

Use the links in the menu at the top of the page to study the “Dynamics” and the “Pivot”. Below are shots of Alex showing inclination (from dynamics) and hip angulation. Notice the extended outside leg – but also how close the centre of mass is to the ground.

Today was just to jog you both into thinking differently about skiing.

Zsazsa in the video starts off well with clear dynamics being used – but then following a wobble she reverts to “pushing the ski away” instead of moving the centre of mass. It’s good to be able to see the difference here.

Jack – your stance is being compromised at this point with the total absence of hip angulation making you fall onto your inside leg. I think you know what to do now! I tried to explain this in the links under “Chiskiing” but reflecting on the sensations felt during the exercise might be more relevant.
