In dynamic short radius turns,
strive to:
- Maintain a relaxed and efficient stance, with feet
slightly apart.
- Keep a countered stance, with your upper body staying
stable, while facing down the hill, as opposed to your legs and feet that
rapidly change direction.
- Steer both skis simultaneously and actively in the same
direction.
- Extend down the hill from the uphill ski at the end of
turns (roughly where your skis are across the flow line,) to achieve a
carved turn.
