In this “HOW TO CARVE ON SKIS LIKE A PRO” tutorial, Aaron takes you through some of the key elements required to perform carved turns and some drills you can try to improve your carving on skis.

Aaron walks through three main areas to think about when you are performing carved turns including your edge angle, the transition from one turn to the next and getting forward pressure to start the next turn. He then takes you through a drill for each focus area. If you would like to learn more then be sure to book lessons with a Maison Sport independent instructor today at maisonsport.com/

    Hi Aaron, I was a coach/teacher at BSA in 2006 when you were there. I still coach now. These vids are brilliant. I use them to form the basis of my sessions on the dry slope on Saturday mornings. Keep up the good work! Cheers Frank

    On that clap drill, I would add a variation where the student does the clap in the direction of the apex of the next turn. Have them commit the CoM down the hill in the direction of the next turn.
  • Touching the boot, the best drill to understand the lateral separation, it work.The best teacher of internet.Thank you very mush, now i progress very fast with than drill.👍👍👍
