Bode's comments, are exactly right, Ted carves bigger and rounder, he doesn't skivot or pivot he lays it over and gets High C carving. How long have Epic instructors and coaches argued that extension and pivoting (USSA coaches and PSIA as well) was the way to ski the World Cup? They have been wrong for 15 years or more and there is no covering it up, they are a waste of time over there and they proved it with their insistence and defending that they are wrong.
Imagine if development programs in the US had followed Expert Skier1 and PMTS, when they came out, where we would be now? Far ahead of where USSA took racers and programs, and continues to take them down the wrong track.
