World Cup GS Stars Free Skiing
Uploaded by: c4rv3r
Video Description:
A Few short spots of superb skiers - Didier Cüche of Switzerland, Thomas Grandi of Canada (both GS and SL free skiing), his compatriot Eric Guay (notice his long led turns - this guy is a definite downhiller) and of course, the Swedish experienced veteran Fredrik Nyberg. From Lake Louise 2004 I think... The video is a bit slowmotioned...

| Yes, not in the right sense of the word, of course, but at least you can see some basic racecarving technique while they're skiing free - no gates that is:) |

| To get perfection, you need to be carving at least 6 hours a day. EVen then you still pick up faults, so yeah it is pretty hard to carve like that |

| its the warmup, they dont wont to get hurt...because of that they carve with their aspect on a good technique. Thats not so difficult. To carve like they do in the race, thats difficult...trust me i know what im saying |

| As long as it suits him and works for him, I'd not be preocupied... Again, this is an "creative application" masterclass... Might not work for someone lighter and taller for instance... |
| Now THIS is perfect ... ( 1 month ago by synapse131) |
| Now THIS is perfect carving. I still think Cuche could do with a quieting of the hands; He doesn't need the additional up and down motion. I'd love to know what his coaches say to him (just cause he's FIS WC doesn't mean that he doesn't have things to work on, like every racer.) I disagree with the statement, "in ski racing freeskiing is skiing with out gates." Good racing technique will work in any situation and type of condition, whether there are gates or not. |

| Harald Harb was the guy who told me, "You're going to be a Star" when I skied up to the group during DH course inspection one time. Well before I perfected my technique. Blown out knees don't help one get to starhood unfortunately. Former glories! Long, long ago. |

| "A framing" in ... ( 3 weeks ago by tomchilcott) |
| "A framing" in itself is not a technical fault. If you examine world cup ski racers in the gates, you will see that, above the fall line, when their weight is 80% over the outside ski, there is considerable a- framing. The key is to having matched shins as the pressure develops later in the turn, allowing effective arcing. Racing turns are not smooth curves, but are more comma shaped, due to heavy outside ski loading. Check Out Kalle Pallander sequences if you don't believe me... |

| also, just saying that there is a style that everyone must follow is kind of a farce, its good to learn on, but guys at this level just have it down to such a science. if you dissected bode's style, youd say that the man wouldnt win a single race, hes always in the back seat, hes standing straight up half the time, etc. avoiding a-framing, etc are good to remember when you learn it for the first time, but as you grow, your style changes too, and some of this stuff goes out the window |
