Thanks for that, I really like railing a long turn especially if you can use the turn to try and preserve as much of your speed as possible (especially with powder turns) but it is almost too easy to lose most of your momentum if you get carried away :lol:

Do you get to ski much powder Trencher? If so, do you adapt your technique appropriately for it?

Do you find when you are really inclining-->angulating towards the end of the turn that if you have a small error it becomes more pronounced?

It is something I am quite conscious of and can fix but it is a lot easier for me just to correct whatever mistake I am making rather than go in to too much detail (for me).

:wink:

These two images seem to emphasise the inner ski tip lead, does anyone have a link to a comprehensive discussion on this topic?

What has the doctor/consultant/physio said? I'd go with that..

Where in Canada are you off to? Someone should be able to edge and wax in under an hour.

Not actually standing on a tin of beer just the same kind of balance movement. I was using it as an obscure example.

Good luck with the boot fitting, remember and trim your toenails.

If it works to keep you centered it is a good way to think about it. Really easy to feel the balls of your feet although in poorly fitted boots I would imagine your control over the skis may be limited ;)

I have been told to imagine, whilst turning, that you are rolling a can (of beer) from underneath your toes to under the arch of your foot. Different things work for different people.
