About

Carving: the professionals’ skiing technique Smooth and streamlined swings on the ridges separate the hobby skiers from the experienced professionals. The popular skiing discipline of carving requires an advanced technique in which speed is maintained by actively lifting the skis instead of letting them drift. There are many exercises that will help optimise your carving technique and reduce your risk of injury. These are suitable even for advanced skiers who have already mastered the technique. The best carving exercises: Carving requires a great deal of muscle strength and flexibility as the snow course is often very compact and therefore resistance is high. Also, it is important to avoid drifting when carving. A varied training programme throughout the year will build up muscle strength and optimise balance & coordination, to ensure you are well-prepared for the challenges faced whilst carving.
