In this video, Tomas Mical, level 4 ski instructor, Aspen pro and Carv Performance Insitute instructor shows us to how ski with a high edge angle. It's a topic that comes up a lot at Carv. Most of us aspire to look like Tomas when we ski - and the Carv system is always pushing you to ski with a dynamic, stable turn - but the clue is in the 'stable' part.
The secret to skiing like Tomas isn't just 'getting low' or pushing it at the apex. The thing is, high edge angles are just the output, and it’s knowing the input that’s the tricky bit.
It's all about two other metrics in Carv - Early Edging and Early Weight Transfer.
Two subtle but powerful Carv metrics are key to mastering the art of high edge angles. To score well, you'll need to use these skills much earlier in the turn than you might think.
Tomas Mical breaks down how Carv's Early Weight Transfer and Early Edging metrics actually work, and how to put them into your technique so you can make turns like his.
Watch the video to get his tips and drills for getting your "ass to the grass".
