Powder/crud --- Words of the wise from ski school pros


1.   In powder and crud, you keep your skis from sinking too deep by developing a bouncing rhythm.

Keep your skis in the fall line as much as possible and think about committing your body down the hill, with your weight evenly distributed over both skis, imaging bouncing on a trampoline. Every time you “land” flex your ankles softly. When you extend, steer your feet just enough to change direction.
(John Kirby, Cooper Mountain ski and ride school, Colorado)

2.   Powder comes in a lot of different densities.

It can fall heavy or light. The pitch of the slope and the depth and thickness of the powder dictate what size turns to make. If the slope is flat and the snow is thick, make long, drawn-out turns that go down the hill, not across it. If the slope is steep and the snow is light, turn more frequently and more across the hill to control your speed.
(Nick Herrin, PSIA National Alpine team, Crested Butte ski & ride school, Colorado)

3.   Leaning back won’t keep you from sinking.

It will just tax your leg muscles and make turning difficult. Instead, weight both skis equally and keep them at the same depth. As long as you’re balanced, your skis will turn easily in the snow even if you can’t see them.
(Jimmy Brokaw, Summit at Snoqualmie learning center, Washington)

4.   My students often widen their stance in crud, thinking it’ll give them better balance.

In fact, in crud you want a narrow stance. When your skis are close together, forming a single platform under you, they’re more likely to follow the same path and encounter the same snow.
(Andrew Halmi, Mount Pleasant ski school, Pennsylvania)

5.   Skiing in powder requires us to slow down some of our movement s and have more patience.

Allow your skis to run a little longer in the fall line, and let the ski design get involved, you don’t need to round out the bottom of each turn so much. Putting too much “belly” into the bottom of your turns is what bogs down your outside ski in heavy or deep snow.
(David Cyrelson, Belleayre snowsport school, New York)

6.   Crud is just a chaotic version of powder.

Use a wide ski, perhaps one that’s rockered up front. Having more surface area under you gives you more control in the bedlam.
(Jim Schanzenbaker, Aspen/Snowmass ski & snowboard school, Colorado)

学完了,无powder 可滑,自认为堪比纸上谈兵的赵括
