This action keeps you connected to the snow, enables you to tip on edge early in the turn, and lets the momentum of one turn help you start the next. Many skiers have learned the opposite movement pattern – extending the legs or standing up to start a new turn. This leaves you disconnected from the snow, and unable to tip on edge. This boot touch lesson will help you learn the timing and action of flexing that will make you smoother in your turns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStats\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePresenter: Harald Harb, 19 minutes, 672 MB, High Defintion, Copyright 2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContent\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*Use a single-hand touch to the stance boot to increase counterbalance through each turn\u003cbr\u003e*Touch both hands to the boot-tops in transition to coordinate bending the legs with the edge change\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePurpose\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFlexing (bending) the legs when you change edges and start a new turn results in...\u003cbr\u003e*Earlier edge engagement for better speed control\u003cbr\u003e*Higher edge angles through the turn for better grip and carving\u003cbr\u003e*Quicker edge change for easier short-radius turns\u003cbr\u003e*Prepares you to ski moguls with better control and less impact\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrerequisites\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn order to get the most benefit from this video, you should already...\u003cbr\u003e*Link turns on intermediate terrain\u003cbr\u003e*Have your skis parallel for most of your turns\u003cbr\u003e*Have watched and practiced the Flexing and Counterbalancing portions of the \u003cem\u003eEssentials Indoor Introduction\u003c\/em\u003e eVideo\u003cbr\u003e*Know how to tip the inside foot toward its little-toe edge (in the eVideo \u003cem\u003eExpert Skier 1\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e*Have practiced releasing with a sideslip (in the eVideo \u003cem\u003eExpert Skier 1\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelated books \u0026amp; videos\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*\u003cem\u003eHarald Harb's Essentials of Skiing\u003c\/em\u003e (book) helps you understand the Essentials – the component movements of effective skiing, including flexing the legs – where each Essential fits into linked turns, and how the Essentials work together for optimal skiing.\u003cbr\u003e*\u003cem\u003eAnyone can be an Expert Skier 1\u003c\/em\u003e (eVideo).
