I call it the "Gondola" technique - lessons are available :)


I'll not only sign up for your lessons but subscribe to your newsletter too!

First thing that come to mind after I hear the word "mogul" is "Donald Trump" and that should be enough to put anyone off.....

Just read all the posts again. Am not sure I fully agree with skidding being bad in skiing. Unless you are 100% carving a turn there is inherently a skid element to it, be it on a gentle piste, mogul field, couloir or a surfy turn on an Alaskan spine. Surely what is important to have a feel for the pressure on your edges so you control the amount of skid. No way to 100% carve on anything above about 30deg without threatening land speed record.

Now this is a style of mogul skiing to aspire to. Not full zipper but just awesome.
