Riding in the no fall zone 🚫

This was intense 🔥🤯

The world’s first couloir 3D boots animation made together with @carv.ski 🎿 I contacted Carv in October as there was no snow of the slopes and I wanted to work on my technique on piste. It definitely kept me motivated & entertained to improve my Ski:IQ and work with the feedback I got through the sensor & app. When the snow finally arrived, I got to take it out on some more exciting stuff and we generated this animation from their data. Few notes & takeaways for myself: Background informations: - I didn’t hike up the couloir, so I didn’t know how the snow was going to be, and how good or bad the rocks would be covered 🦈. This adds some extra spice, but also asks for a bit of a safety margin, I generally try to avoid skiing lines I don’t hike up. - When I dropped in the snow was mostly good with a few crusty, rocky and hard sections here and there. - I wanted to ski it fast and in front of the sluff, but not full speed to stay in control even if conditions turn out to be worse than expected. Main things to work on: Parallel skis - Some 🍕 here and there. Sometimes „necessary“ sometimes not. Edge Similarity - keeping my shins more parallel and maintain same distance between knees & ankles. Could have gone faster (mostly a good idea 😜🤷🏼‍♂️) Things to notice on this animation: - Transition weight release between turns, especially on the hills. This helps a lot to not get stuck on the tails, which a lot of the times would just send you straight in the wall. - Put your ski fully sideways, 90 degrees to fall line when taking out speed. Or even more than 90 degrees to „win“ some space towards the wall you‘re moving to. If you‘re close to 90 degrees but not quite 90 degrees and you get hold on your edge, it can go very quickly towards the wall 😜 Enjoy and take care 🙌🏽 #skiing #couloir #couloirski #epic
