that computer generated animated carver was very educational!

Time of the year is starting again. Excited to learn from you again. Looking forward to next ones

[diegocavallaropuig]

Thanks a lot James! Really useful inputs there! Looking forward to put it to practice

This is a beautiful little video to indelibly etche the transition from toeside to heelside.
The animation is absolutely spot on and just what I need for repetitive viewing to hammer home the pelvic thrust throughout the transition.
Love it. Great work guys.

This was very effective. The animation, the comparison of video, and the living room demonstration. So good! Thank you!

Danke! Dear James, you are really awsome, i have never ever seen a similar brilliant tecnical carving video, i am absolutely flashed, congrats you are insane 😅 and this will significantly change my carving style! I ride a Korua Cafe Racer plus, greetings from the swiss alps, waiting for your back turn video 😅🏂 Andy

Fantastic content, James. Your technical detail is so accessible and clear

[nAggOHOK]

im really glad to find your channel! thanks a lot, its really usefull. Today i was working on slope with your previous video an got some progres. despite this winter is low snow condition in our region of Russia. Your videos saves me a lot of time with my trainings..

[tuannitro]

Thank for taking your time to make this video 💕

Nail some many questions I didn’t know I had. Thanks buddy!

[colinbarbeau]

I enjoyed this video a lot. Thanks man!

Nerd level 💯! Great discussion. When I’m coaching I can’t nerd out this hard or I loose students so I just tell them to try to touch the snow with their belly button and nothing else except maybe the back knee. Nobody can drag belly button however it gets the hips to do what I want them to do. I also tell students to pretend they have eggs in their hands and they can’t break them in the snow.

The animation was super cool! He looked like spider man ripping carves.

i don't have any desire to carve like you, but i am trying to learn how to carve better. however, i want to do it with my typical 15, -12 stance. have you ever done a video of you carving in a more duck stance angle like that with analysis?

[Boardriderx]

Great video once more! Thank you for the in depth analysis. Any chance for dropping such a video focusing on heelside turns? Appreciate the content

[rollingedges]

The reaching is the hardest habit to break. Got my rubber today, my goretex mits are gonna hate this weekend!

[Duunti]

Very cool stuff man! ✌🏼And great animation together with very clear tips and focus points.

Will put to practice in feb. First time (aft. 30+ years) I bought a carving-oriented board (Jns FC9000 164, with bt size 12). Will try -9 15 because still love some freeride and -style… But I guess i’ll have to tweak that too 😅

Anyway, thanks and cheers! 🏂

Great video James glad it’s that time again. Any chance of a video on weight transfer throughout the turn, when and to which foot is the weight?

[TheDerekHyde]

Sometimes Craig Kelly had more of a longboarder’s downhill stance with practically all the weight up front and the rear knee way forward (with crazy canting).

[davidmcfall]

Another great video, James. Super informative. What is, in your opinion, the best way to determine ideal stance width for carving?

[Harry-lzoz]

tucking the tail means posteriorly tilt the pelvis I think, anteriorly tilt means hip hinge
