Delving into tougher terrain

 

 

Understanding tougher terrain: obstacles & variable snow.

 

Variable snow:

Punchy snow

Icy slopes

Windblown powder

Bumps and dips

There's not that much a big of a difference when you compare it to normal ground.

 

ATTITUDE

 

 

VISUAL TRAINING & TERRAIN READING

HIGH POINTS

 

When you have bumps or moguls, the best place to start off (to start your turn) it's from the high point: you will have your ski tails and front tips free to ride, otherwise they'll be locked in the groove between the moguls.
