Freestyle Skier Learns How to Ski Race | The Training

Learn with me, a lifelong freestyle skier, how to ski race! This video documents my journey from freestyle skier to ski racer, covering intense training, course inspection techniques, and racing strategies. We cover key racing terminology (gates, fall line, rise line, pitch, offset, delay/banana) and essential skills (tuck, edge control, hip position, speed management). Watch as I overcome challenges, improve my times, and compete against a rival skier. Perfect for ski instructors also going for the ISIA speed test.
