 Follow the tracks   Independent legs...   Bouncing in powder
 
Count through the curve. Don't rush the start of your turns... have a go at counting your way round... Use regular and rhytmical counting!

Stage 1
 Having changed edges, try not to turn your feet too quickly... WAIT!

Stage 2
 Feel for the instep/heel of your outer ski/foot, is there an edge to press against?

Stage 3
 If you push and your foot/ski moves sideways, then you need to tilt the ski a little more onto its edge, so you have a platform to push against.

Stage 4
 Start pushing against this edge through the foot (instep/heel). Allow the other leg, inside leg, to bend underneath you.

Stage 5
 Keep over that outer foot and direct the ski where you want to go until you want to change direction gain.

Stage 6
 Maintain the curve - Don't let go of the outer ski pressure until you are ready to change direction and edges again.
