Have the student changes edges and slowly increase the edge angle so that they turn completely back uphill. Have them try to work towards leaving a thin line in the snow. In a traverse, steer the board up hill. Use subtle hip rotation to pivot the board around it s center to a new edge. Continue the traverse riding switch. Loosen the bindings to the point where the rider has a significant amount of heel lift. Perform wide radius basic skidded turns for the length of a green run. The rider will need to flex the knees, ankles and hips to remain "stacked" and angulated over the working edge. Start in a traverse, create twist in the board to steer it directly down the fall line. Hold the board in the fall line with a flat base for a "Thousand One" count. Twist the board again to resume the traverse in the original direction. Perform this at le Try to show the base of your board uphill right after changing edges. Use the knees to get higher edge angle right away. Air 80's Pivot While traveling down hill on edge, perform an air 80 (both frontside and backside) land on the new edge and continue for at least turns switch. Ollies Pressure Flex/Extend Get air by springing off the tail of the board. Shift your weight to the tail followed by a rapid extension, or jump, with the back leg. Use the shoulders to enhance the weight shift. /4 Pipe Carves Twist Flex/Extend Travel up a quarter pipe (or steep bank) and make the turn transition at the highest point. Utilize twist to maintain turn symmetry Leapers Edging Flex/Extend When finishing a carved turn, try to hop up in the air and switch edges, coming down on a clean edge and holding it all the way through the turn. Air 60's Pivot Perform an Air 60 (both frontside and backside) with or without a terrain feature Dolphin Turns Pressure Flex/Extend Ollie at transition and land gradually on opposite edge, front foot first then back. Can be carved. These become Porpoise Turns when applied in steeps and/or powder. Footed Basic On any green run, link basic skidded turns with only the front foot strapped in. Symmetry and flow are key. Twist Flex/Extend Ankles Skidded Turns

5 L Category LOM Description Side Slip w/ Stop Wedge Change-Ups Rotary Pressure Knees Knees Ski Fundamental Movements and Skills Simultanious edging movements combined with a centered stance will allow for progressive movement directly down the fall line. Starting from a standstillwith the skis directly across the fall line, release the edges and slip sideways down the fall line for several yards. Re-engage the edges and stop. Repeat going the other direction. There is no pivot or turn in this task. Skis should slide directly down the fall line with minimal travel fore and aft. Steer legs into a wedge and back into parrallel with no turn shape. Beginning in a straight run, the skier simultaneously steers both legs into a wedge (converging relationship) and displaces the feet and skis laterally away from each other directly under the skier's COM. While maintaining forward momentum, the skier will simultaneously steer both feet back underneath the COM so that the skis return to the parallel position in which the task began. These two moves will be performed as many times as the terrain allows. Both skis are simultaneously steered into and out of the wedge. Legs must be steered in equal proportions. Skier maintains a centered, balanced stance; hips should remain over feet. No turns. Hockey Stop Edging Hops in a Straight Run Side Slips with Turns in a Corridor Wedge Turn Outside Ski Turns Leapers Balance Rotary Pressure Edging Balance Pivot Slips Rotary Hop Turns Pressure While side-slipping on a groomed trail, flex the legs quickly and tip the feet/skis sharply to engage the edges (edge set) and immediately stop the slip. Maintain balance over downhill ski. From straight run, quickly flex the kness, pivot skis, and tip them on edge. After a minimal amount of slipping, set the edges to stop. Continue to face downhill when turning the legs. Maintain balance over the inside edge of outside ski. In an athletic stance, skis pointing down the fall-line, flex knees then sharply extend upward so both skis come off the snow simultaneously. Skis must stay parallel to slope (while in the air). Land on both skis simultaneously and immediately return to athletic stance. With skis directly across the fall line, the skier releases the edges and slips approximately meters down the fall line while keeping skis perpendicular to the fall line. At this point the skier makes a short, pivoted turn and then sideslips down the hill facing the other direction. This is repeated after another meter side-slip. Corridor roughly -4 meters wide. A pole swing and touch should compliment the skiing movements. Corridor must be maintained. Skis must be parallel throughout maneuver. A pole touch is required. (Leg steering independent of upper body, ie rotary). A carved turn is accomplished by edging and pressure movements with the outside leg (edging movements). The skier links medium radius, carved wedge turns. The wedge size must remain consistent from start to stop. The turn radius must not vary (turn radius determined by examiner). Minimal skid is used and then only to maintain turn radius The inside leg is actively steered to maintain the wedge. A carved turn is accomplished by edging and pressuring movements with the outside leg (edging movements). The skier performs a short to medium radius turn while completely lifting the inside ski from the snow. An early and complete weight transfer allows the skier to completely lift the new inside ski from the snow immedieately after turn initiation. Inside ski must be completely lifted off the snow throughout the turn. The skier should NOT rely on their poles to maintain balance. Fore/aft and lateral alignment (balance). At the transition between turns, the skier "leaps" into the air with a purposeful up-weighting (rapid extension) move. During landing, flexion is used to regulate the resultant pressure, and a controlled parallel turn is completed. A series of 5 or more may be required. Skis must remain parallel throughout the maneuver. Up-unweighting is done from an edged platform. Edge change occurs IN THE AIR. Demonstration of properly directed movement in conjunction with pressure management (pressure). With skis directly across the fall line, the skier releases the edges and slips down the fall-line. Within a couple of meters the skier pivots (foot steers) the skis 80 degress. The skier then repeats the maneuver with minimal distance between pivots. The exact terrain, distance, pole touch, and/or number of pivots to be determined by examiner. Corridor must be maintained without stopping. Center of mass (COM) travels directly downhill. Skis are parallel throughout the maneuver. Directional movement is timed with a pole swing. Leg steering independent of upper body (rotary). From a platform formed by both skis, the skier uses an up movement (extension) to bring both skis off the ground. While in the air, the skier simultaneously turns both skis across the fall-line and lands. Pressure is managed, which sets the skiere up to repeat. A pole touch is timed with the landing, creating a constant swinging of the poles. Skis are parallel throughout. Pole touch is timed with the landing, and it stabilizes the upper body for steering. Two clean (non-skidded) tracks are left with each repetition. Steering must be completed prior to contact with the snow. Accurate flexion and extension movements (pressure control). Railroad Tracks Edging The skier performs shallow arced turns (the radius is determined by the sidecut of the skis). The tails of both skis completely follow the path of the tips. This translates into NO SKIDDING. Progressive tipping movements create the edge angle. Edging movements originate in the feet and move up to the knees and hips. Progressive edging. One Footed Skiing Balance With one ski removed or held off the snow, skier will perform dynamic turns as examiner/trainer instucts. Athletic stance and fundamental movements must all be present for turns to meet dynamic standards.
6 L Category Description Step out of Straight Run Steeps Skiing Versatility Latteral weight transfer will occur as the skier steps from one ski to the other. Steering will occur as the ski is diverged from the fall line while in the air. Starting from a straight run, lift one foot completely off the snow, pivot the ski in the air until is is diverged slightly from the direction of travel, step back onto that divergent ski, lift the other ski completely off the snow, pivoting it in the air until it matches the first ski and then step back onto it. Repeat until both skis are out of the fall line and forward momentum has ceased. The skis must come completely off the snow. The skier must maintain a centered and balanced stance throughout. The weight transfer from ski to ski must be complete. The deceleration and stop must come from the ski being stepped out of the fall line, not edging movements. Some edging might be present to prevent slipping as the skier moves out of the fall line. Traverse (Bumps) Link Medium Radius Bumps Crud/Powder Box Freestyle Carved Up-hill Arc Linked Medium Radius Steeps Bumps Funnel Turns Crud/Powder Air 80 off Hip Freestyle Short Radius Steeps Zipper Line Bumps Hour Glass Turns Boardslide Box or 60 off Hip Crud/Powder Freestyle Skier will make a shallow traverse in an athletic stance while maitaining dynamic balance. The skier will flex feet, knees, and lower back to keep constant and consistent contact with the snow (pressure management). While flexing and absorbing, the skier must remain in an athletic stance and maintain dynamic balance. Skier will link medium radius turns on appropriate, groomed terrain. Radius will be between -5 meters. Turns may incorporate some skidding, but skier must maintain flow and ryhthm. Pole swing and touch must be present at proper time in transitions. Skiers CM must move correctly in relation to the path of the skis. Skier must show proper balancing movements and pressure management. From a straight run, mount the feature (box) with ankle, knee and hip flexion to adjust for the frictional difference between the snow and the box surface material. Most fun boxes have a polymer or plastic surface that tends to simulate snow but often is slightly different. If the friction of the fun box surface is higher than that of the snow, then a slight leaning back posture may be required to resist the added drag on the skis. If the fun box riding surface is slicker than that of the snow, a little forward lean may be required to keep from falling back. Look down the long axis of the box and hold the straight run position with skis about shoulder width apart and parallel. Avoid any edging or steering to correct a bad line on the box since the box surface is too stiff for the edge engagement needed to change direction. Flex the knees and ankles upon exit. Skier will start from a straight run. After appropriate momentum has taken place, skier will gradually tip edges while engaging pressure at the tips of the skis. As carving starts, skier will incorporate proper upper and lower body separation, pressure, edging movements, and dynamic balance to maintain the carved arc of the turn unitl the skier has come to a stop due to loss of momentum. Skier will be facing up-hill (or nearly so) at the end of the carved arc. Skis will carve two distinct tracs in the snow (NO SKIDDING). Skier will link medium radius turns on appropriate, groomed terrain. Radius will be between -5 meters. Turns may incorporate skidding, but skier must maintain flow and ryhthm. Pole swing and touch must be present at proper time in transitions, and blocking pole plants may be used. Skier will maintain ski contact with the snow through pressure management, extention and movements, and dynamic balance. Skier will perform turns of various sized radii, starting with large radius (5-5 meters) and working their way down to small radius (-5 meters). Variations in turn size provide options for adjusting line and rhythm, and adjusting to terrain. Movements will become more intense, at a faster rate, and with quicker timing as radii get smaller. Shorter turns require more leg turning and rely more on lower legs to control edging movements. Pole swing will help with timing. For shorter turns, pole swing will be directed more down the fall line (all pole swings should be toward the apex of the next turn). Skier will aproach feature (hip) in an athletic stance, ready to maintain dynamic balance while in the air. Skier must use body movements to prepare for a rapid twisting that is strong enough to spin skis through 80 degrees while airborne. Skier must land in an athletic stance, and absorp the landing in a controlled manner. Skier will link short radius turns (-4 meters) that incorporate almost no skidding. There will be two distinct, clean tracks formed in the snow. Turns must have flow and rhythm. Skier must use proper pressure management () to maintain constant contact with the snow. Appropriate edging, pressure, and rotary movments must be present. balance must be achieved. Pole swing will aid in timing and rhythm. CM must move in correct position to arc of the turn (given phase of the turn). Skier will choose a bump line that directly follows the fall-line. Skier will make direction changes rapidly between successive bumps. Skier will maintain flow and rhythm by managing rate, intensity, and timing. Blocking pole plants should be used to control upper and lower body separation as well as speed. Flexion/absorption movements will be key to maintaining dynamic balance. Upper body should remain very quiet in relation to lower body. Skier will perform turns of various sized radii, starting with large radius (5-5 meters) and working their way down to small radius (-5 meters), then back out, gradually, to large radius turns. In powder and crud, skier must make constant adjustments to edging, pressure, and rotary movements to maintain dynamic balance. Though changing in size, successive turns must still flow. Skier must show proper upper and lower leg engagement given the different sizes of the turns. Skier will approach feature in an athletic stance, ready to twist lower body 90 degrees and slide a box. Just before reaching the box, the skier will flex at the knees the rapidly extend to release contact with snow. While in the air, skier will spin skis 90 degrees while the upper body faces down the box. Skier will land on the box (with skis at 90 degrees) and maintain dynamic balance to the end of the box. At the end of the box, skier will again extend so that skis are in the air. While in the air, skier will rotate skis and lower body so they are facing direction of travel. Skier will absorb impact with knees, hips, and lower back and return to an athletic stance in dymanic balance. For 60 off Hip, skier will perform same move as 80 off Hip, except skis must rotate in a complete circle (60 degrees) before landing. Skier will abosorb impact through flexing of the knees, hips, and lower back, and will return to athletic stance in dynamic balance.
