by using my edges better, by having a better feeling for my edges

I'll be doing a lot better throughout the turn

what is essential is that the body is doing the right thing

if I'm doing something wrong with my upper body

I will have a hard time to get the skis to carve around the corner

So the precondition is to have the fundamentals right,

then I can put the skis on the edge

and the skis will not slide but carve.

How does it look like?

I have my feet hip wide apart

I am in the basic position

and pretty much all I have to do then

if I'm in the right position

is to roll both of my knees to the inside of the turn

the inside ski is leading a little bit

remember we want to be facing the valley

be careful that you're not just rolling your outside knee

ending up in an A-frame

you want to have the inside ski,

inside knee staying away from it

lower legs should be as parallel as possible

like this I can also use this leg

but still I want to be angulated

to have more pressure on my downhill leg, outside ski

All right let's do it!

Let's have a look at the drills, let's see

how we can give you a better feeling for the edges

first exercise we start out in our basic position

and then all I want you to do is do a traverse

and while you are traversing

roll your knees a little bit more,

put the skis more on the edge and see what happens

before you do that please have a look up the hill

to make sure that no one is coming down

we take the poles away again start out in our basic position

make sure no one is coming

traverse across the hill

now all you have to do is

go down touch your knees and

push them to the inside of the turn

after doing this to both sides

traversing and rolling the knees

we start out in the fall line

hands in front of your body

the coming insde ski comes forward a little bit

and all I have to do is go down and touch the knee

now we want to link some carved turns

we start out in the fall line with our hands in front of the body

move your inside ski a little more forward

touch your knee and roll both of your knees

come up and forward

go down, roll your knees
