Steve is the divas' ski school director
1. Learning to bend their ankles in an effort to maintain a centered stance.
2. Changing the movement pattern from one of up to moving more directly into the new turn.
3. Making certain that the turning of the skis comes from the legs not the upper body.
4. Understanding the concept of getting your skis on edge earlier in the turn helps create better turn shape and use of the skis.
5. Speed is controlled by appropriate turn shape and not jamming on the edges.
6. Learning not to hang onto the old turn to long.
7. Learning the concept of absorbing pressure not creating it.
8. Beginning to get the skis out from under their body during a turn. (i.e. Long outside leg, short inside)
9. Learning to use the side cut of the ski effectively. (Not so much pivoting as in the past, a lot of tip and guide)
10. Learning to truly connect turns not end one then start the next.
