Images and elements of "Good" Skiing

When I was training for my PSIA Full Certification (Level 3) in 1993, and Trainer Accreditation (1999) I would watch good skiers for about 15 minutes every morning. Of course back then it was on VHS video tape. Now you can just bookmark this post and watch away. Some of the videos resembled what I used to watch.

Medium Radius Carved Turns

Short Radius Performance Turns

Performance Mogul Skiing

Skiing Variable Terrain

Great job Jonathan Ballou (Aspen) and PSIA-RM for putting these images together. To get this type of performance from your instructor, REQUEST a FULLY CERTIFIED PSIA/AASI professional for your next lesson.
