over 12 years of skying here (and 1 year of snowboarding). at this point i'm so comfortable on skis that i don't use the poles anymore. it's not even a special technique i'm just too lazy to carry them anymore (not fully uncommon in europe) . now, some wisdom i've learned over the years: 1. don't let yourself get peer pressured by friends to go fast (i've made that mistake before) 2. always eat well before hitting the slopes. Without the energy you will become cold and stiff soon and your day will suck. if needed stop to grab a cup of hot chocolate. for me that little bit of warmth and sugar does wonders. i always move better afterwards. 3. don't take gloves or mouth scarf off on chair lifts. the chair lift is usually where the wind is worst and losing warmth is not a good thing 4. NEVER cross your skis on the ski lift. it's the quickest way to fall. 5. hand cream, lip balm, sunscreen and the mouth scarf are your best friends. the sun can still give you a tan even in winter (snow reflects light) and because of how dry the air is, your skin and lips will get really dry and cracked and painful. 6. there is nothing wrong with faling. it will happen. if your skis jump off your feet when you fall, it's normal. they're meant to do that. if they don't, your feet would break 7. be careful when skiing on slushy-like snow. ski's can get buried and because slush is heavier than powder, the skis will stop but your momentum will carry you forward and you will fall flat on your face (happened to me and some friends a couple years ago) 8. be careful on ice. the edge of the ski doesn't hold as well and you can slide down the hill and loose your balance. hope these help some of you out :)

So, for tip nr. 6... Do they always fall off or there's a chance that I would break my feet? 😅 Just asking, because tomorrow I will go skiing for my first time ever

just completed my first ski trip loved it, however your point 8 was my biggest gripe. skiing on ice really does feel horrible, especially if you're a beginner!

@ambitious_reader801 Жыл бұрын

@Dracius skis have a built-in safety thing. if there is a certain type of pressure put on the ski (that is only obtained if you fall), it will detach from your ski boot automatically so that it prevents further injury. usually, when you rent skis, they ask for weight so that they can adjust the "fall off" setting to be catered to you. i haven't personally seen anyone fall badly and have the skis NOT fall off.

@ambitious_reader801 Жыл бұрын

@RDB. i really wish there was a way to counteract the ice, but the only thing you can do is go slowly. ice doesn't allow for good breaking and falling on that ice is not something you want to do. i know it can be scary, but it's something you can handle even as a beginner.

I've been skiing since I was very very young, probably 20ish years by now and its pretty interesting to think about all the beginner stuff that you almost forget about. Slowing down and thinking about the edge control for a side slide is just something I haven't done since i was a little kid, but with those type of things, i could see ways i can instantly improve my own skiing by paying a little more attention to that sort of thing

Great video! I'm 2 years in as of now, going on my 3rd year in a few weeks! The tip that helped me making parallel turns is that you simply put 1 ski every so slightly in front of the next when making a turn. Making a right turn -> right ski in front. Making a left turn -> left ski in front. This helped me instantly going smoothly into parallel turns and also parallel breaking, which was a big one for me as well! Keep it up!

This is so helpful. I learned to ski as a teenager back in the 1960s, and did not take it up seriously again until I was 69. (I am now 72.) The style of skiing these days is somewhat different than in the 1960s; for example, when we parallel skied, we were always supposed to have our torso facing downhill, with our downhill arm back. Plus our bodies were held more tightly, more compactly. Now the emphasis is more on facing forward, in a somewhat looser stance. I am trying to learn to ski this way, and your video helps!

That was very helpful. I also like the tip of highlighting to flatten the inside ski for parallel turns. When I learned skiing, my friends took me to red tracks directly after the skiing course. I was still doing the snow plow and due to the steep terrain had to backseat to break enough which then made it really hard to learn parallel skiing (just like you pointed out).

However, and I can't stress this enough, it's crucial to get a ski instructor the first time, it makes all the difference! otherwise you're most probably gonna have a bad experience and feel discouraged.

So great to learn skiing from someone who is also learning (albeit you have already learnt a lot since the first vids I saw a couple of years ago). Many pro instructors have been skiing since they were kids and at age 10 could already ski better than I do now. When that's the case it must be very hard for them to teach a person learning in middle age. It'd be like most of us trying to teach an adult to walk, we all do it but don't really know how.

I find a better way to get off lift chairs is to keep both poles in one hand and use your free hand to push yourself away from the chair. Regarding mounting lift chairs, you should learn how to use your ski poles as very low-speed breaks, there is often a slight slope near the mounting area and plow-stopping isn't an option oftentimes.

I’m sure I’ll catch some heat for this but I’d suggest snowblades (super short skis). A lot of people are only spending a few days skiing and these are super easy to use and really help prevent crossing your skis. I think snowblades give a new skier the best chance to have fun on day one or two.
