INCREASING THE EDGE ANGLE OF AN ADVANCED SKIER | A Carving lesson w/ Tom Gellie | Ep.3 TT

If a world-class instructor watched you ski past, what's the one piece of advice they would give to help transform your skiing?

Wonder no longer! We've teamed up with Carv Ambassador and APSI Level 4 instructor Tom Gellie to bring you the third episode of our Technique Teardown series.

In today’s lesson, Tom takes a look at some skiing footage submitted by Charlie. Charlie is an advanced skier who’d like to get some tips for some more aggressive carving, with higher edge angles!
Well, Charlie, you’ve come to the right place.

Tom breaks down 2 key factors holding Charlie’s skiing back currently and recommends 2 actionable tips for you to put into practice on your next skiing day, so if this type of skiing resonates with you then be sure to put these tips into action next time you are carving it up.

The following points are covered in today’s episode:
The importance of being patient in the first phase of the turn.
How to build pressure smoothly in the outside ski.
How to drop lower, for higher edge angles.
