Bottom Line On Speed Control

Print this pagePrint This Page

control | balance | tactics

 

Here is the bottom line on speed control in moguls. Selection of the proper ski technique depends upon what your objective is. If your goal is to ski well on groomed runs, carving may be the appropriate technique to master.

If your goal is to ski well on off-piste terrain, a "drift" is an essetial technique to master.

What we can further say with certainty, is that carving is NOT the appropriate technique for moguls or powder if (a) you are an aging Boomer with slowing reflexes and if (b) you want to ski this terrain confidently, slowly and under full control.
