Great video. I really like that it talks about the rearward weight shift through the turn. That is really important for strong carving technique. Instructors tend to ignore, or even dispute that this should happen. I guess they don't want to encourage being in the back seat. The opening shot is the most informative, if you are struggling with carving. Notice how he initiates the turn by inclining the inside ski into the turn before the outside ski. This forces you to use the sidecut, and naturally weights the outside ski without conscious thought. Strange that it wasn't mentioned.
