What he is showing clearly works and illustrates an important point. I ski and snowboard on all terrain. I don't understand the vitriol in these comments. I progressed very quickly at skiing by skiing on one foot to understand which foot is most important to place weight on at any given time.

Spend the week on the greens and blues working on technique... save reds and blacks for another time when you have the skills and can be safe.

Skiing is counterintuitive until it’s not. You reach a level of proficiency (an actual type 3) and then it becomes like riding a bike.

Just returned from my seventh trip to the Alps. No need to ski the black runs. It is not about the bragging rights.

Your skiing technique vs Turboflex skiing technique basically LOL, in all seriousness people focus way too much on the indevidual legs and their skiis, when in reality you need to combine the strengths of both legs, thats how you do anything in skiing

Sorry but this is BS. This as nothing to do with the inside or outside ski but with your balance. Furthermore, no need to ski black runs in your first week.
