Jeet,
Lester and noobSkier both made good observations about your skiing, with which I agree. But trying to think about this many things while skiing is counterproductive. To ensure progress you need to (1) identify your SMIM and (2) select a drill which focuses on that movement.
SMIMCA and hand position are among the Essentials, as you know, but if noobSkier is correct that you're finishing turns with tail pushing (and I think he is), then your SMIM is Tipping. HH and other coaches repeatedly state that Tipping must continue AND INCREASE throughout the turn... right up to the moment of release into the next turn. In PMTS, Tipping is a more basic movement than CA or hand position... and that leg extension kills Tipping.
DRILLWhich drill is appropriate to improve this skier's Tipping skills, particularly in the second half of the turn? I suggest an old favorite, the Super Phantom with Touch Tilt (SPwTT).
To do the SPwTT you must keep the free ski lifted off the snow for the ENTIRE turn. Its inside edge should touch the rivet of the stance ski boot. Tip, tip and tip that free ski. When you've tipped it as far as possible... tip it more. Never stop tipping.
Keep tipping until your stance ski begins to hook up and is about to shoot cross the slope. At that instant your lifted and tipping LTE should brush the snow. That's your trigger to relax the stance leg and Transfer balance to the LTE of the uphill ski (without extending that leg, and still TIPPING!). Glide on that tipped LTE for a mental count of 1... 2... 3..., then tip the new free ski to begin the new turn.
To emphasize the second half of the turn you can do SPwTT's garland style, turning uphill, then releasing and repeating across the slope.
VARIATION
Make each complete SPwTT to a complete stop. Do as above but when the free ski LTE brushes the snow don't relax the stance leg. Just keep tipping and turning until you stop, balanced entirely on the stance ski, free ski still lifted and pressed against the stance boot (and Tipping!). This is a good checkpoint to confirm that CA and CB are maxed out and that your outside pole tip has just tapped the snow well behind your binding. Do this EVERY time you come to a stop on skis - all day - every day. As HH has said, the last turn you make is the most important turn you make - because these movements will stick in your muscle memory.
noobSkier wrote:With all that said, making short turns at such low speeds is supremely difficult. I would suggest something easier like a medium radius phantom turn with emphasis on progressive tipping to initiate every single turn.
Disagree. Skiing very slowly challenges balance, but that's the point of doing drills. Jeet is actually skiing too fast.
Momentum enables ineffective movements. Jeet needs to do drills like the SPwTT at MUCH SLOWER speeds until he owns the balance and movements. Once a skier owns correct movements at very slow speeds, it's easy to ramp up speed gradually without disrupting the correct movements. Trying to learn new movements at faster speeds usually doesn't work.
