πŸ‘‡ From bEGINNER to NOVICE πŸ‘‡

From Snowplow to Christie β€” feel lighter, smoother, and finally in control.



πŸŽ₯ Visual Reference: The Christie Turn




What Changes at This Level

  • 🧠 More awareness: both skis start turning together β€” less effort, more flow.
  • πŸ’ͺ Less pain: no more burning legs or pushing against the slope.
  • 🎿 More control: your skis follow your intention β€” not gravity.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • ❌ Forcing the turn with the upper body.
  • ❌ Keeping skis too far apart.
  • ❌ Not trusting the edges β€” let them glide.

πŸ’‘ Small shifts make a big difference β€” bend the ankles, not the hips.

β€œSkiing isn’t about fighting the slope β€” it’s about learning to flow with it.”
