Perfect snow in Montana a week ago, we were in Montana to film footage for my new Free Skiing DVD.

Fooling around with Carving tight arcs

The inside knee needs to be bending further as the arc develops, if you want to get your hip to the snow.

Need binding help?

This is most complete ski instruction library and reference guide to modernize your skiing. Get them today, or as Harald says, "You will be making the same old turns for another season".

Ligety pulls out of a good one.

This is a good one, because he has to make three turns on the same ski. This is a top 10 finish.

Use your legs to flex into the new turn.

Extending or vertical movements

in skiing destroys your carving

and edge hold.

When Skivoting and bad alignment don't work.

This is the first frame in a series, and it doesn't get better.

Flexing, Tipping and Counteracting, 3 Essentials of Skiing

Reinfried Herbst leading World Cup Slaloms for 09

Is Reinfried Herbst the best slalom skier in the world? He is on a streak and has only three countryman to worry about. Marcel Hirscher, Benni Riach, and Manfred Pranger. These skiers are brilliant, fast and steady. The Olympics are just around the corner and this may be a totally different situation as the snow is different in British Columbia and the number of entries in the Olympic Slalom has a limit of 4 skiers per country. Stay tuned for an exciting year. I watch skiing on Universal Sports Network.

Ski Practice 1: Counter Timing

Counter Acting is the movement that turns

the upper body or torso away from the

turning direction of the skis. This movement

is critical in all skiing, without it you have

no power to release and you may end up

with rotation in your skiing that causes you

to use excessive upper body movements.

Excessive upper body movements throw the

body out of balance!

Latest Obsession

Rare sighting of Austrian Mountain Goat

These goats are called "Gams" in German, they are hunted for their meat and therefore are elusive even though their natural predators are rare or non existent. The French word for this type of mountain goat is Chamois.
