very well explained what ski model are you using here?
Comment from : @franzoberhauser3291

I’m seriously considering ordering the Carv2, but I’m not sure if it would be enough on its own instead of having a trainer Since I live in Austria, attending Carv camps is unfortunately not an option! ;) After a longer break, I’m now back on the slopes and want to improve my carving in general
Comment from : @-ndc-bla9770

I wrote the second part first Now I watched the video and must add that I learned quite a lot from this! Thank you!brI skied my entire life and recently I am really trying to improve my turns My problem is in all those videos I watch there are perfect conditions for carving I always ski in the swiss alps and there slopes are NOT in this condition It is even a pretty big resort Within 50 meters of the slope you often have bumps, ice and loose snow How am I supposed to carv like that?
Comment from : @InterfectorII

yes dude that s splendid take care of you and your relatives bless
Comment from : @maxponsetis1948

So this is like old guys going Funcarving (like Walter Kuchler sad) , ski on Up leg And feel the carv… I realy dont Get it, you show that 70-80 is on down leg in turn but the last exercise was like old schol (UP leg ) , or I just feel it different ? brNice And perfect film I wish to life now as a teenagher but im 40 And no ACL in my knee 😂 brGreatings from Poland

Правильный подход: телефон в руки и задницу ближе к склону, остальное по фигу! Но только не забудьте канты привинтить к жопе!

My two favorite ski instructors on Carv channel: Tom Gellie & Tomas Mical More content please from these two legends!
Comment from : @trainwithbash

1:41 the hump of left outside ski - is that okay?brI learnt it as a sign of not enough weight push down the ski But seeing you doing it, maybe it is okay thing?
Comment from : @juanperez-d1f6v

Great! Which Head Model is this?
Comment from : @Andi69155

I don’t see “early weight transfer” on my Carv app Is this available on Carv 2?
Comment from : @bt5294

Best video best explanation, not bullshit
Comment from : @free-audio-books-world

Which head skis is he riding?
Comment from : @benoitraby5322

This is so good I need to practice these techniques Watch out Ted Ligety 😂
Comment from : @richardcasey4439

Hand dragging seems cool, but it becomes a crutch Don't do it Edge angle is proportional to turning forces In other words, if you increase your edge angle without going faster, you are by definition making your skiing WORSE There is only one way to get higher edge anglesand that is to GO FASTER Any other way promotes bad skiing
Comment from : @shooter7a

😃Nice to watch as you ski It's like a classic GS ski competitor style Love those hip dragged over snow - perfect feeling in turn and best feeling between turns;) Drills you have shown are so stable and on so high speed - congrats of control and your body motoric performance (weight room in regular work I guess ;) )brCould you write a parameters of the ski which you've used in this video?⛷ thanks for answer👊
Comment from : @nowohucka

Thank you for the Video - I was struggling to with both metrics last year and didn’t know how to improve them Looking forward to trying out the exercises! As usually, the devil is in details and practice 😉

Ski bum training!brNot for the average person going on the annual 6 day ski trip
Comment from : @kaischulte9275

Thanx man! Just on my way to Italy, its 16th hour of journey I cant wait to stand on my ski and just flow
Comment from : @wiesiek666

Thank you, great advice, explanations and demonstrations👏👏👏

Producing contrived over edged locked up park and ride skiers!
Comment from : @anthonysears871

Tomas - great video! I'm looking forward to focusing on Early Edging and Early Weight Transfer Does Carv 2 include these two metrics? Thanks Dan M
Comment from : @danielmccarthy9734

I agree with they above comment Way contrived style Watch the best skiers at any western resort in the us You will NEVER see anyone put there hip on the snow Why, it takes to long to extend to proper height mid turn to get into the next turn My advice, learn to control your skid for mixed terrain That's the forgotten ace in the hole This type of skiing has an extremely small application for most real skiing Which for many of us occurs on semi crowded slopes with mixed conditions Ever notice the hill is basically empty in all these videos Also, if skiers intend to ski this way there needs to be some panoramic side to side vision with others on the hill Ever been nearly taken out by practicing carvers, I know I have My advice, learn the controlled skid in mixed terrain and you will never get bored
Comment from : @danmccann8111

I love early edging

sick carving m8! looking forward to practicing those drills in a month

Bravo !! Quel bon skieur vous êtes C'est un plaisir à regarder
Comment from : @JeanLuc-e5u

thanks carve! and thanks tomas', learned basics of sking', on my own', always liked short or giant slalom! too', i can see how slalom' racers' carve ! compared to your skill set' wow! looks the same'! going to try harder to get lower' great teaching ' tomas and thanks!😎
Comment from : @jamesgarcia9123

great job thomas
Comment from : @DADEpc

So the last part of the video is called "early aging" but is clearly meant to be "early EDGING" - Nobody wants to get old fast, unless you are under 21 and want to buy alchohol
Comment from : @Nazrahnas

And you got to be on absolute FRESH groomers!

Да как вы так ездите!!!???
Comment from : @izichdv2022

Perfect explanation as usual! Great to see a coworker showing how great ! SALUDOS TOMI!
Comment from : @ramirochipont8770

Very good ,very good,but…… maybe point down the min Level you need to start this phase off advanced carving,tell something about the required material,such as what kind off ski ,edge angles and scharpness,state ( snowquality, and angle) off the required piste you will use to do this exercise,instead off making publicity for an electronic ski app?
Comment from : @guidouytterhaegen

Logical because the maximum outside pressure is reached when the skis become parallel to the slope The minimum or zero outside pressure, (flat skis) is reached when the skis are perpendicular) 90deg) to the slopebrTherefore, the beginning of weight shifting or transfer begins at the apex of the turn The good skier is the one who can tell exactly when his skis become perfectly parallel to the slope(Ie, determine when the apex of the turn is reached)brThis is the most difficult part Needs milage!!!brbrConclusion:Tomas has described it perfectly well
Comment from : @labibnader8755

Most amazing skiing here I like this style better than Ligety So much power and grace
Comment from : @Davidr3G

Best video of demonstration following clear explanation Great work
Comment from : @thediamonddad9531

Thanks so much for these helpful drills and explanations
Comment from : @charlesarcher9626

holy outside ski chatter at 0:14
Comment from : @brookscurran

Peter BridgeIt is very good that you get into the discussion about skiing mechanic but if you talk about weight transfer during edge changes You are at least 40 years behind the equipment curveGet out of the old traditional stuff
Comment from : @amundekroll7490

Stop talking about weight transfer You have to change the transition if you are trying to get an early edge changeThis is to much talking about nothingLearn something about kinetic energy
Comment from : @amundekroll7490

Your skiing is so beautiful I need to watch this again to grasp these concepts
Comment from : @hondajacka2

Thanks, very good content from Carv as usual I didn’t though really follow the first exercise, could you repeat the key points from that? The second exercise to go down and incline the inside leg looks really good and I look forward to practicing that one!
Comment from : @realdealneal14

thank you so much! very useful 🙂I will try next week in Arabba, Dolomites
Comment from : @ahbd1212

Thank you for this video I did the drill all afternoon, and my early edging went from 50 to 60 My edge angle has improved also, although a little less I wish there were more videos with drills to help improve the Carv metrics Thank you!
Comment from : @cinzia598

I am a beginner who just discovered sensation on getting on the edge and staying on it through a portion of the turn I also learned how not to hurry into a turn and hurry the "rotation" which casuses skidding (aside of pushing with legs too fast and sometimes chaotically Now, I am a much better mountain biker than skier, often doing cornering drills on an asphalt parking lot with a rather rigid bike with slicks I also do some drills on wide gravel roads with proper full suspension MTB Watching your video it becomes clearer to me how similar these two sports actually when it comes to trying to achieve a smooth, powerful turn with a big dose of lean angle!
Comment from : @waki_resigns

What location is this? The background looks so pretty!
Comment from : @sinclair7673

What radius ski were you on for this video? I'm guessing 16-19 meters
Comment from : @estelja

I can't see Tomas Micek on the official Carv leaderboard It's pretty discouraging to see Carv instructor not using Carv 😢
Comment from : @ursoos2

Edging lol
Comment from : @adrianarchie

Hi Tomas great video! I'm a Deer Valley ski Instructor taking a bunch of training clinics Also skiid with Ted Ligedy in Park City The focus of early edging for us is the "hip thrust" over the downhill ski earlier than normal Do you have any comments on this?
Comment from : @pad2120

If i start shiffing weight at apex to old inside/new ouside/up hill leg, on the pressure graph, shouldn't I see the inside leg getting darker at the end of the turn? Instead, on leader board, the inside is getting lighter as the turn ends
Comment from : @onlinewen

I'm allowed to exaggerate my fundamental A-frame for an early edging drill?brbrChallenge accepted!brbrA wonderful video: I hope there is time left in my season to try this
Comment from : @kuanjuliu

Interesting how the ski instructors' world is so different to race skiing For any race coach this would be a video "how not to ski", basically never "ass to the grass" and always stay over the outside ski Especially nowadays, with Marco Odermatt in charge brOtherwise it is nicely presented ski instructor stuff
Comment from : @Andrey-f4m

👌
Comment from : @pablomartinez7093

Tomas and CARV Team 🙏 for these quite relevant Drills … and YES 🙌 they truly works … I couldn’t 🎥 film as I was too focused on the execution and with too little time but amazing feelings as the edge angles start to naturally increase…it felt really like driving a sport car with superior gripbr…
Comment from : @marcogiardinastories

Whether you use Carv or not, they have really great tutorial videos online! Thanks for this new one again!
Comment from : @drieskeb

Great skiing, great tips Thanks for posting this!❤

Very good dear friend
Comment from : @marianvendel1418

Sounds like an advanced topic Maybe I can work on it later in my ski week at the end of the month!
Comment from : @phlack1001

I’m skiing Aspen, Snowmass now!!!!
Comment from : @karengleason4791

It was also very insightful that how Early Edging metric is calculated inside Carv I hope we can see this kind of explanation for other metrics as well
Comment from : @kenken23

It would be apreeciable if The ski coach spend a further explanation on upper body movement To The Fall Line during transition
Comment from : @giuseppemicheli596

superb instructions and tips here,
Comment from : @tvardalos

Very Good explanation on transition And what To do To early weight transfert To The Next outside ski
Comment from : @giuseppemicheli596

I’ve used CARV in this ski season being very happy with it Your drills are well explained and especially the second one is opening my mind, surely next time I’ll try to apply them, thank you for this video Congrats for the CARV project and greetings from Italy! ⛷️👍🏻
Comment from : @Joevannini69

Way way over contrived! Park and ride What's with the 50 meter locked up turns on 15 meter skis?
Comment from : @anthonysears871

Try that on ice dude!
Comment from : @normalizedaudio2481

This is the exact video I have been looking for to get me into these skills I was struggling with early weight transfer and early edging last week Your drills are greatly appreciatedbrbrHeading to the airport for Carv Camp this week at Castle Mountain in Alberta 😊
Comment from : @WildMidwest1

In my opinion, the much better methodical approach to achieve high edge angles can be found under:br"Hand Drag Drill For High Edge Angle Carving", Tom Gellie - Big Picture Skiingbr"How to Ski Groomers - with Performance", Joshua Duncan-Smithbr"How To Ski - Dynamic Carving", Joshua Duncan-Smith
Comment from : @redsock4843

Nice video and good explanation But the conditions that he's skiing are even rarer than a bluebird powder day Think about it, recently groomed snow, no ice, no bumps, uncrowded or empty piste, perfect almost constant pitch, unlimited visibility, and reasonably wide piste
Comment from : @RaulTT1812

great job! Simple explanation and great performance and motivativation for others
Comment from : @marketasveda9138

Nice! 😀👍
Comment from : @ivokoimecs

Wow did not realise that you can shift your weight to new outside ski so soon Thanks for great explanation 😊
Comment from : @patrickpurcell3671

Vow, beautiful and powerful skiing I need to watch it again to digest As an adult, I find it's so hard to improve It might be because of the limit of flexibility overall The way to fold the body like you requires quite a lot of flexibility, especially the dorsiflexion on both ankles, especially again the inside ankle 😅
Comment from : @shijunli

Really nice description I want to try it today, but unfortunately, Iam not at Aspen Highlands
Comment from : @davidballou8693

Amazing project
Comment from : @mersindvstries9911

While focusing on high edge angle and turn shape, it is important not to "hip dump" in the process brThanks for sharing
