I have been watching several videos that cover this topic. Deb has done and outstanding job on this one. I like her including the concept of shortening the inside led and the lifting of the toes when tipping the feet to increase edge angles. Love the that Deb explains everything in simple terms without using technical terms that some viewers may not understand. The visuals were great along with PJ’s and cat in the background. Please keep the presentations going. Great stuff!

Awesome video to start out my morning. Deb, the way you breakdown the skiing process is simply amazing. I am so glad I found your channel. Thanks😀

I love the explanation between the toes and ankle flexion. This is important for turning as much as a solution to get out of the backseat 🎿

I love the instructions and the coffee hair.

I’ve watched countless ski videos, so I can get better. After I’d seen a few of your videos, I knew immediately that you’re the teacher for me. Your communication skills are priceless because your explanations compliment your skiing videos: something I didn’t get from the other you tube instructors. This is before I’ve discovered that you’re an Olympic GS champion.

Awesome video, really important stuff.

This was great. I learned about skiing with my feet and tipping from Harold Harb years ago, but this analysis is fantastic, clear, and concise. Thanks Deb. You have a new subscriber.

Another great video. My understanding is that the position Deb demonstrates with the coffee table (one leg up on it) is referred to as "vertical separation" (of the feet), which if then tipped over onto the snow *looks* like a "wide" stance but really isn't.

Deb, you're so cool & your Dad is a perfect student😚, that crust on the bread wow, I make my own kefir, sourdough & granola too,
I just love your videos, so helpful to me, I skied this year in France after 45 yrs 🤭 I loved it (am 65yrs)

[thomascostello]

Been needing someone to tell what’s happening in the boot. Thank you 🙏🙏

Hi Deb, not mentioning the hip at this level to get a bit of angulation and more tipping and line of strength hip knee inside edge ? Nice video

[petervolkert]

I have found your videos really helpful even though I'm a telemark skier. How would you adjust this particular advice specifically for telemark turns? Thanks!

I love this "family style" videos. By the way: the woman in the picture when talking about extreme angles is Daniela Ceccarelli.

Love watching your vids Deb. From Cottonwood Heights Utah. Snowbird Bum

Brilliant! How much weight should be on the downhill ski versus the uphill ski? I'm assuming it differs depending on the conditions? So on hard, icy snow you want all your weight on the downhill ski? On powder you want 60%? On packed powder 80%? In moguls 90%? If you are racing on ice 100%? I have never raced so I have no idea how these amazing athletes are so magical.

I noticed Deb's cat is walking in the background.
