Skiing Skills Piste Performance – The Extra Bits

Skiing in a perfect arc with not an inch of side slip, banked over at 45, catapulting round the turn and exiting faster than you went in; then looking back to see two perfect knife tracks in the snow – the sensation of carving a ski is just awesome!Thanks to modern skis, you can start using your edges after just a few weeks skiing. It’s the next level that’s tricky. Why do you lose it the moment you ramp up the speed? How do you take up those extreme angles without skidding out? The distinguished team of Peter Hart (presenter and coach), Sean Langmuir (former Olympian and BASI trainer) and Amanda Pirie (former World Cup racer) have the answers. And they don’t focus solely on carving. They also show how to vary and shape your turns to control speed and cope with every eventuality on the piste. The DVD is packed full of extras including bundles of advice from the Ski Club of Great Britain. Piste Performance, the second Skiing Skills program, was filmed across the Alps by award winning Acrobat TV.
