Seven Deadly Sins (Parallel Skiing Tips)

Problem:

1. Tight Stance - Hard to bounce efficiently & difficult to allow skis work independently
2. Losing inside hand
3. Leaning inside (banking turn)
4. Rotating upper body
5. Turning inside ski more than outside ski
6. A-Frame - Edging outside ski much more than inside ski
7. Counter rotation - blocked position; not strong

Solution:

1. Keep your feet hip-width apart then you will find much easier to edge the ski
2. Keep both hands in front and have a good platform on your feet
3. Inside leg slightly bend & maintain outside ski pressure
4. Upper body stay calm
5. Adjust body position & maintain outside ski preSsure
6. Equal amount edge on both skis; try to feel inside foot's little toe
7. Keep yourself more lined up & stay strong; allow your feet, knees, and ankles to increase the edge as you go around turn
