It's very difficult to make quick turns facing the fall line in steep terrain. I would suggest practicing the transition between turns on a lower grade. Really concentrate on your weight and feeling the ski come out of one turn and into the next. As you become more comfortable peforming transitions quicker you can take that skill back to the steeper terrain.

Hello,
I'm looking to share a room in Chamonix, Verbier, or Zermatt in late Feb. I'll be in the Alps from 17 Feb 05 - 3 Mars 05. Anyone who's skiing during this time and interested in sharing room and board please contact me. Would be great to find fellow telemarker!

Matt :D
